What do you guys think about the midfield combination in 442? Play a diamond and risk using all 3 of Bertos/Gao/Daniel or the more traditional 2 wingers, 2 central midfielders (say Ferrante + Lia)?


Well, a 442 could be leave you less defensive cover than a 352 especially if you have 2 attacking full backs which could result in only 2 defenders back and possibly a DM for cover. Even with 1 full back up the line up switches from a 442 to a 352 anyway  with fast teams being able to exploit holes in the defense and then you are potentially substituting a Gao/Bertos/Daniel for a fullback comparing to a run of the mill 442.
