Message: [QUOTE="Forza Azzurri, post: 3873894, member: 1452"] It is both an opportunity and a real conundrum. Dest spent more time in their box than he did in ours. He is so gifted, and dynamic, offensively that, getting him into the attack, simply makes us a better offensive side. Unfortunately, the Swiss simply played the ball into the gap he left on the flank and showed that, for all his gifts, Brooks is not going to be handle opposing strikers and wingers 1 v 1 (and neither can our other center backs). So, what do you do? A 3-5-2 with two 6s to help cover the left flank? Dest as one wingback and Weah as the other? Can Cannon play wingback? Can we play 3 center backs? A 4-4-2 so you have an outside mid to cover for Dest when he goes forward? I don't think a 4-3-3 works if Dest is going to have license to go endline to endline. [/QUOTE]
