Champions League Team Football Formation

Lineup (3-5-2)

De Gea · Vidic · Evans/Smalling · Ferdinand/Jones · Evra/Fabio · Raphael/Valencia · Carrick/Scholes/Fletcher · Nani/Young · Cleverley/Anderson · Rooney/Kagawa · Welbeck/Chicharito

Just a bit of fun but here goes. <p> Not your typical 3-5-2, Ferdinand in this formation would be almost a sweeper which would suit him down to the ground now his legs are begining to go, if Jones plays instead then its more of a forward roaming defender/defensive box to box midfiielder in the Duncan Edwards mold lol :P.<p> Evra/Fabio (or Fryers if he stays/Baines if rumours are true) and Raphael/Valencia/Clyne would have the same role as 4-4-2 system except way more license to get forward to join the attack with enough protection from the central defenders and deep lying Playmaker/DM (plus the free floating extra central defender/sweeper/DM lol) and opposite WB.<p> The deeplying playmaker/Dm would essentially be the Carrick role at present so wouldn't take much tinkering and he wouldn't get over run as there would be Ferdinad/Jonesjoining/dropping off etc as support. <p> Kagawa, Young, Rooney, Nani, Cleverley and Anderson (and Powell) can rotate depending on fittness and form and all would be more than capable of interchanging, interlinking and playing great fast intricate, accurate 1-2 touch football and would all have a duty to get forward or back as a team. <p> upfront, Welbeck holds onto the ball well and brings others into play, Chicharito needs more support and through balls so in this formation either player would have their merits and would both thrive of the kind of service they'd get or provide for their teamates. <p> this formation is fluid and interchangeable, with little triangles and diamonds all over the pitch lol and can be 4-4-2, 3-5-2, 4-2-3-1, 4-2-2-2, 3-3-3-1 or a few other you care to make up on Pro Evo/Fifa lol
