We need to drop the 4-1-2-3 formation this season or until we have a "david". The back 4 need to drop 10 yards as does the 2 cms. We need to decompress the opposition and give our players a chance to find space.
Rodri & kdb make a solid and varied cm base. Let foden play a free role ahead of them. Good luck picking him up when allowed to have a free role. Kev should get more time to pick his passes again and we shouldn't be getting picked off on the counter every match.
Obviously this is only guess work, but we have the players for 4-2-3-1. Gundo/rodri, kev/doyle & foden/bernado. It should also leave space for torres & sterling to run into.
When we are a goal or 2 ahead we can shift back into a possession based 4-1-2-3 but to start the match let's open up the pitch and trust our players to defend and attack. They are good enough.
