Can we ban this poster as a sacrifice for Massaro's awaited return ?
No

I think he just forgot about the forum or something. Struck me as someone with a fleeting memory of most things.

"Deportivo la Coruna had a better team than us in 2004 and deserved to win"

He actually said that?
you're in no position to make fun of anyone mr. 'wingers don't do any defensive work in a 442'
Dude that's EPL. They were just told the following: "You go near the goal and look for headers, You go support him. You go out wide right son, you do the same on the left. You two stay in the middle because that's where we have some space left. The rest of you... DEFEND!"
You trying to define tactics on the basis of Fergie?
As opposed to any other system with fullbacks and wingers? (4-3-3, 4-2-3-1)
No. And excellent reported speech as well
I'm saying that the wingers can get 'round the back of the defense as much as they like as long as your fullback stay home.

If a winger is caught out of position in a 4-4-2, the other team can overload your fullbacks and maybe drag your CMs wide and create space in the middle.
It's vital, more than in any other system, to maintain the shape in a 4-4-2. Current Atletico, Sacchi's Milan, even Leicester this year have had success because they've been disciplined positionally in defense.
The wingers have much less defensive responsibilities when there's an extra mid to cover them, for example in a 4-3-3 (Barca and Messi).
Also Beckham and Giggs did a lot of running.
Seriously? You're asking me this in the Massaro thread?good post
Agreed mostly...but Becks and Giggs hardly defended. How old were you in '99?
Why would you even watch live football anyway when you have youtube compilations and wikipedia summaries?
