@Bede_Porter@EBL2017@TalkinTactics murphy is clearly behind the midfield line and more in line with the defensive line imo. I get your point tho its fluid bcos of the way that gvardiol is positioned
@Bede_Porter@EBL2017@TalkinTactics murphy tracking gvardiol does make it a 5 atb because gvardiol was holding width for city forming that 5 in attack which is my whole point tbh. Being at the game doesn’t also offer a whole view of the field as it does on camera. Can you show me some pics of the 4-3-3 press?
@Bede_Porter@EBL2017@TalkinTactics he did not say newcastle played 5 defenders but that Newcastle defended with 5 defenders which was true. Also, this is not the case all season as newcastle have pressed in a 4-3-3 in majority of their games which he referenced 'go back to the 4-3-3'
@Bede_Porter@EBL2017@TalkinTactics they did not play with 5 defenders but bcos city attack with 5 in the last line, howe dropped a midfielder into the defence to form a 5-4-1 to ensure city didn't get an overload
