Fifa Team Football Formation

Lineup (4-2-3-1)

Kahn · Baresi · Costacurta · Suurbier · Cole · Neeskens · Guardiola · Tardelli · Iniesta · Cruyff · Klose

Subs: Vasovic / Ambrosini / Rummenigge, Bene /Viktor

TACTICS:
The starting lineup will have Oliver Kahn in goal, a back four of Ashley Cole on the left, suurbier on the right with Baresi and costacurta in the centre of defence. Central midfield has Neeskens as the anchor man, pep as the link player and cruyff as the creative player. Iniesta will play on the left-wing while tardelli will start on the right with klose as the central forward.

Attacking play:
During attack I will play more of a 3-4-3. For me, suurbier would step out of defence and join the midfield trio to form a quartet & cole will move towards centre to make a compact 3 of cole-baresi-costacurta. In defensive midfield, neeskens will do the dirty work with his tackling & will come handy making runs forward also. His runs will draw the markers out & will help in creating more space for other players.
Pep will not be just another anchorman but rather a link man between midfield and attack. With his range of short as well as long-range passing and vision means that he will have no difficulty linking play. By giving this role to pep, I am freeing up cruyff to become the trequartista and have freedom to drift left, right and centre.
Iniesta will start on left & tardelli on right but these 3 with cruyff in centre will switch frequently all through the game. Even Klose in lone striker role can hold the ball and switch places with iniesta & iniesta can move in centre while cryuff can play as striker.
If Ashley cole & Suurbier move forward then tardelli will sit back in the right side & Neeskens will slot to left. Midfield at this point will have iniesta & pep in bit retired role & ashley, cruyff & Suurbier bit ahead of those two basically playing in a shape of "W"

Defending:
With my teams focus on possession play, counter attack could be a big issue. while defending, team will change the shape to 4-2-3-1 & with two defensive midfielders(neeskens & pep). Instead of man to man marking, closing down spaces would be my strategy.
