TFF preferred formation this season
With kc changes this season and more competition in Liverpool and Man City defences (Liv full backs and City centre halves) I’m thinking of ditching my usual 5 at the back strategy to get more attackers in. Plus there’s no 532 option.
What do you think will be your main formation?

Re: TFF preferred formation this season
Not being able to shift to 532 is annoying.
I'll start with 4 at the back I think til I see how the season pans out as it is all about players rather than formations (e.g. if there are 4 gold dust midfielders just buy them and **** any preference for 433 etc) and CSs are usually harder to come by at the start of the season.
Not many forwards I fancy but 2 I like initially so may well go 442.

442 with 2 strikers "guaranteed" a goal a game seems to be a better model for me than 541 with premium defs who may only get 1 CS in the first 3 weeks right now.

Yep and you can rotate strikers for midfielders as long as you lock into 4 defenders.Mins wrote:442 with 2 strikers "guaranteed" a goal a game seems to be a better model for me than 541 with premium defs who may only get 1 CS in the first 3 weeks right now.

Good points. Agree with 4 at the back. Was think of TAA as a nailed on keep in, but think Neco Williams will get game time this season and that Liverpool may concede more

Neco is promising but nowhere near there yet.RCN wrote:Good points. Agree with 4 at the back. Was think of TAA as a nailed on keep in, but think Neco Williams will get game time this season and that Liverpool may concede more
My personal opinion is that Klopp will minimise (defensive) rotation except maybe around CL games. Like most managers this season I'm sure he'll do 11 changes for cup games so I'm not wortied about TAA minutes, - as safe as any other similar pick, if not safer.
As for CSs, Liverpool flattered at times last season but only were consistently tight for maybe a 15-20 game stretch. Will still be up there but maybe 1 or 2 less over the season.

541 for me. Defensive enablers coming out of my ears. Will look to move to 451/442 when...if(?) a sub 3m MF shows up.

541 here, always wished they had it as an option, and finally it's now possible.

Re: TFF preferred formation this season
Current draft is 442, which I prefer at the start as it gives lots of flexibility to change as required.
