Just out of curiosity, would you change your mind if it transpired that Pellegrini had decided to do away with playing with two forwards and build a team around a pure 433 system ?
No mate, it wouldn't. He just hasn't convinced me one iota - in game management, set pieces, subs etc etc
Fair enough. I'm not sure I can agree with that he's been as unconvincing as that. The root of my issues is that I feel like he's been too dogmatic in how he's approached using his squad, maybe to the extent that I don't feel he's got the best use out of the tools at his disposal. However I don't think that that's something which can't be rectified because I think it's difficult sometimes with older players who maybe don't feel they need to run as hard as they did when they were in their early 20's. That's not an excuse btw for the weaknesses as I see them in MP's managerial make up.
I asked the question because I think I'd be much more optimistic about next season, even with MP in charge, if I felt that we would buy players this summer to play a pure 433 as we have done in our last two matches. Watch hi start Dzeko and Kun tomorrow now ... :)
