Only team I can remember doing it successfully was Barca (and Spain) and even

then it was pretty dire to watch and was a short lived experiment. But hey. Who knows! Come on the Norwich!!!

5 at the back two defensive midfielders and no striker. Looks like we are going for it. (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 6, 16:32:50
- I was fearing worse tbh (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 6, 17:27:40
- Couldn't it be interpreted as 3 at the back with wingbacks (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Jan 6, 16:41:12
  - Havent we just matched there lineup? (n/m) (NCFC) - hoolahan, Jan 6, 16:52:39
  - That’s the same as five at the back (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 6, 16:47:15
- 4 of our 5 top scorers on the pitch (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Jan 6, 16:37:40
  - BT have just shown Zimmermann lining up on the left-wing (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Jan 6, 16:42:00
- Farke expecting to be out of possession and lot, play on the break. (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Jan 6, 16:37:10
- I like this. Given that our strikers don't score, there's more threat in this side (n/m) (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Jan 6, 16:36:35
- Might be good strategy to try to get a draw and Murphy on the break but my god it is going (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 6, 16:34:19
- Assume Murphy will play up there but not a fan of no striker (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 6, 16:33:45
  - Only team I can remember doing it successfully was Barca (and Spain) and even (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 6, 16:35:40
    - Just can’t see him holding it up so ball won’t stick. can see some logic to it though (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 6, 16:37:28
      - I see the logic. But I assume we will just use Murphy as a striker rather than try to (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Jan 6, 16:39:20
