I don't disagree with that,but on occassion, i repeat ON OCCASSION,it can be used successf

ully.Secondly i don't know why people automatically associate the phrase 442 with a flat 4 in midfield,or with long ball football,tes,in the 70s that was the case,but we played 442 in our first year up several times,sometimes with a flat 4 (ie arsenal away),and played some lovely stuff,it's like it never happened for some of you.
