Look here ffs, the twat creates a thread about tactics on a football forum so do I post back as a simpleton or post back with a quality grasp of tactics. If you say that 442 and 4222 are the same formation then fuck off to the pub and have a discussion there. |

Well I blatantly wasn't aware of that so whilst you've provided the evidence for it existing, you've also provided the evidence for me not knowing it existed. Score draw, scrappy match where the minnows scored a lucky goal and an own goal. |

It's not the same formation, it's a variant. |

If it's a variant what the fuck is the point of this thread? Then by that 4222 and 4411 are variants and then by Mert's definition the 442 "and its variants" has never gone out of date thus rendering this thread void right from the off. |

Top stuff. I would like to see more teams playing with two strikers, makes for much more exciting football matches. Atletí made it work pretty well last night against Barcelona as well. |

Sorry mate, I was just looking at some of the Barca highlights I would have made more of an effort if I knew you were waiting.

I'm struggling here, I really am. One thinks United play Nani & co. as wide men in a 442, says 4222/4411 are variants but then the formations haven't died so what is the purpose of the opening post if he makes the conclusion that they're variants that United have been playing 4411, then you try to differentiate between the formations because, after all, this is a football forum and if you didn't attempt to differentiate, as I mentioned before, the thread is void right from OP. Then one twat wades in not realising Hargreaves played a RM and then a fucking autistic twat jumps out of the bush with a shit ass post. Got some real spastics on show here. |

Verdict on the a la argument please. ZZ needs putting in his place, it doesn't mean 'for example'. |

Dictionary definition means "in the style/manner of". You probably could say a 442 à la United in '99, but that's only if you accept there's more than one version of a 442, which he didn't, so really it just becomes a tautology. |

To discuss whether there's early signs of a shift in emphasis from 4231 (one striker system) to 442 (two striker system). He wasn't even making the statement, just trying to provoke debate, which inadvertently he has done. Edited by AntMcfc, Aug 22 2013, 03:55 PM.

That's presuming I'm using "a la" in a French language context as opposed to an English language context. A la is a French phrase used by English speakers, the case in point here, in which it translates to "like" (English usage) as opposed to "in the style of" (French language). Well and truly twatted. |
