A player should not make any difference to their ability to play in a given formation if they are properly coached.
I repeat. I am not expecting us to play as well as Chelsea. I sm aware their team costs lots more than ours. I was merely pointing out that this is the formation Hoot claims we often play but the difference in terms of how they get forward in numbers is quite obvious and the fact they have some pace out wide.
We could play this formation very effectively with a front three of Snod, Hooper and Redmond with Tettey, Fer and Howson/Johnson behind then. I hope on Saturday we do.
