We need to see more of the 3-4-3 formation, when the moment is right
We saw both the positives and the negatives of the 3-4-3 formation tonight. Going forward we looked excellent, both Adam Lallana and Philippe Coutinho had strong games in addition to the two goal scorers, and there was plenty of exciting movement and interplay. However, the back three were exposed at times, and Jordan Henderson looked fairly uncomfortable playing as a right wing-back for much of the evening, although he did have a major role in the first goal. We’d like to see more, but it perhaps needs to be saved for certain games where we are expected to do well, and need the players to breakdown opposition teams.
