#2 4-2-3-1
Trending
Most managers in the world favour the 4-2-3-1 formation simply because of the balance it provides. Even Jurgen Klopp used this formation at Borussia Dortmund and also at Liverpool in his first season in most of the games. Liverpool have the right players to play the 4-2-3-1 system and it is really surprising to see Klopp not considering a switch back to this tried and tested method.
In this system, the back four will be similar to the previous system. However, the fullbacks will have to burst forward at every opportunity. Henderson and Wijnaldum will be the most suited duo in the middle of the park. Both players are brilliant – passing and composure wise. However, against the sides who have big players in midfield, Emre Can could be used to provide the required muscle in midfield.
Coutinho and Mane will be the automatic choice on the flanks. Roberto Firmino should beat Adam Lallana to the number ten position while Daniel Sturridge should be used as a number nine to link up play between the midfield and attack.
