So, do we think 5-2-3 / 3-4-3 (however you see it) is now the blueprint? 00:21 - Dec 31 with 748 views | ITFC_84 | So much more compact and solid with 3 CBs. I’m guessing we will look to surrender the bulk of possession in games and look to counter attack more often. Impressive change/tweak from McKenna if so! |  | | |  |

With Burns and Broadhead now fit, the only change would possibly be Tuanzebe coming in for Wolfenden, with O’Shea moving into the centre. It’s actually 4-5-1 which can flex to 5-3-2, 4-4-2 or 5-4-1, very flexible especially with the squad. |  | |  |

I would argue the formation is always very flexible and I am fairly sure McKenna has stated that on more than one occasion. It is usually more 4-2-3-1 than 4-5-1 in the initial set-up. |  |
