SyntaxtheRed Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 just read a blog on the bbc that mentions the W-M formation which i'd never heard of before so I thought it might be fun to post a City 11 up in a WM formation. relevant links: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/paulfletcher/20...tball_blam.html http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Foo...mation_-_WM.png ----------------------GERKIN ---- NYATANGA --- FONTAINE ---- CAREY ------------SKUSE --------- ELLIOT --------- -----------HARTLEY ---------- CLARKSON ------ ----- SPROULE ------ MAYNARD ------ HAYNES How hammered would we get? Who would you play in this formation? any other comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The half backs and inside forwards were the forerunners of midfielders - here endeth the lesson! ----- SPROULE ------ MAYNARD ------ HAYNES How hammered would we get?

cityhead Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 thanks for the lesson, no one care to guess how we'd fare lining up like this? SwapCarey and Nyatanga around, replace Sproule with Maynard and Saboria in at centre forward and you could have a good WM lineup. Five deensive minded players andfive attacking mindd players = good balance. However quite narrow but most teams play narrow and not many play with traditional wingers so could be quite interesting.
