Palfy Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Rather see a 442 and have a real go at them they are very fragile at the moment, and Arteta won’t of had any influence yet, the last thing we need to do is show them to much respect.

Aidan Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Maybe Siggy is on the flank in a 442? Agree it does seem a strange tactical change after recent success with 442. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Hopefully Sigurdssen and Iwobi are the other way round. Big game for Iwobi today, hope he makes up for his last performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo 2.0 Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 17 minutes ago, MikeO said: Looks very much like a Marco Silva team that although it will be interesting to see how the formation evolves in real time post KO. Perhaps Delph is the holding midfielder with Tom Davies now free to roam box-to-box alongside Sigurdsson (in effect giving us two players behind the striker). No doubt Richarlison and Iwobi will be drifting into the box with Digne and Sidibe overlapping. It's a flat formation on paper but could be anything but once the ball starts rolling. Plus, Carlo Ancelotti. Nothing could upset me today, we've got Ancelotti markjazzbassist and Cisk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elston Gunnn Posted December 21, 2019 Report Share Posted December 21, 2019 Disappointed if it’s back to 4-2-3-1. Also hope Digne isn’t being brought back in too soon from injury. But maybe Baines couldn’t recover quickly enough?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the more I think about it the more I think 433, he switched to it in previous games and may still want to play direct but put an awful back line under pressure with DCL, Richy and Iwobi playing off each other. Like others have previously said though Iwobi needs a performance against his old side today. Cisk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
