In a 442 you play with 2 central strikers, one sometimes drops deep, sometimes the both play high up.wanderer72 said:Seems like you don't get your own definitions. If he's playing in front of Tevez (and have Tevez consistently ignore him, as he's been doing this far), it doesn't mean he is by definition in Tevez's path unless you assume Tevez is the one who has to finish it every single time.
I didn't even mention a classic 4-3-3 (which is quite different to 4-4-2-1), what are you talking about?
This season we have been playing 433 with Tevez as the central striker. For Dzeko and Tevez to play together there are 2 options.
Option 1. We continue to play 433 and either Tevez or Dzeko play as one of the wide players.
Option 2. We play 442 and they both play together.
The point I am making is if we went with Option 1 and keep playing 433, I don't think Tevez is very good playing wide. I think he is brilliant as the central striker in a 3. I am very confident Dzeko cannot play as a winger in a 433.
In my opinion if we are only to play one cental striker, I would chose Tevez over Dzeko.
So, in summary, we either have to change the system to 442 or I don't think Dzeko and Tevez can play together. Do you understand now?
I call bullshit. When did City (before Dzeko, and especially since) ever play a classic 4-3-3 (which would assume Tevez, Balo, and Ade or Jo starting at the same time)?? Most of the season City has been playing variations of 4-4-1-1, 4-2-2-1-1, etc.
Of course Dzeko cannot play as a winger, nor do wingers belong to the final "three" in a classic 4-3-3! Just because they run forward doesn't make them strikers, otherwise e.g. Kolarov would be a midfielder! Get it, or do I need to start typing it very sloooowlyyy for you?
