Custom Team Football Formation
Starting Lineup
الجليدان · بيريرا · محلي / كيلر · عابدي · لوبي / دومبيا · نانديز · محور ٨ سوبر · ديابي · بيرجوين · جورج · العقيدي / أجنبيA high press and quick transition style defines the identity of this team, which operates in a 4-3-3 formation. The goal is to win the ball high up the pitch and use vertical passing to catch opponents out of position. This lineup looks to control the game by squeezing the space in the middle and forcing errors from the opposition back line.
العقيدي / أجنبي starts between the posts to command the area. The defensive unit works as a flat back four where الجليدان acts as a right back to provide width and عابدي operates as a left back to cover the flank. In the center, بيريرا plays as a right centre back and محلي / كيلر acts as the left centre back to defend zonally. The unit works to hold the line and prevent runners from getting behind.
The midfield consists of a three man midfield with a carrier and a shielding presence. لوبي / دومبيا sits in front of the defence to deny the pivot and protect the back four. To his side, محور ٨ سوبر and نانديز work to connect the defensive and attacking lines. محور ٨ سوبر looks to carry the ball forward while نانديز helps to recycle possession and press in a mid-block when the ball is lost.
The attacking front three relies on three attackers across the front to stretch the defence. بيرجوين operates as an inverted winger on the left to cut inside and create chances, while ديابي plays on the right to push high and drive at the defense. جورج acts as the lone striker and is tasked to find the feet of the striker or hold up the ball to allow others to join the attack. They work in combinations to find space between the lines and deliver crosses into the box.
One major advantage of this lineup is the ability to press high in coordinated waves to win it back high up the pitch. The team also creates wide overloads when the full backs join the wingers in the final third. This allows the team to isolate wide players in one on one situations to break the opposition.
This formation is built for a high tempo game where winning the second ball is vital. It is best suited for facing teams that try to play out from the back and leave space behind their midfield.
