| captdave - 03-Oct-11 10:38 Both teams played different formations than they typically play in this game, both managers appear to be trying to find the right shape this season. McLeish used a diamond midfield which is very rare to see in the Premiership, with Agbonlahor and Bent as a front two and Ireland in the hole. Martinez continues to change his formation from his usual 4-1-4-1/4-3-3. We saw a rare 4-4-2 against Everton, then a 4-2-3-1 with Diame in an unusual left wing role against Tottenham. Martinez stuck with the 4-2-3-1 for this game, again using Diame in an attacking role but this time in a central position. |
