I think it's been more a 3-4-1-2- than a 3-5-2 so far, with Holman playing in the hole between the midfielders and the forwards.
Mate, I understand what you say, but please note that that A.C. Roma 1927 coached by Luciano Spalletti was never a "title winning side".They played very well, I must admit, but they arrived second. . .
Ah really? I think that our current style of play is most similar to the Spalletti side instead, because if my memory doesn't fail me, Capello played with 4 defenders, whereas Spalletti was one of the firsts that launched the 3-4-3 in Italy.
Batistuta was in that team wasn't he, probably my favourite forward growing up.Lowton is a class act.
...We have 3 really good centre backs in Baker, Clark and Vlaar too, all can play a little, and all are damned good defenders, so together I can see them really clicking. Maybe need another one in as backup still, although the joy of it is that the 3rd centre half does not have to be massive so Herd works there well as he is a good footballer. ...
