Newcastle United Football Formation

Lineup (3-4-2-1)

Three full backs with a mix of pace and experience (Taylor weak link).

Anita to initiate pass and move, simple cutting release balls. Sissoko box to box, licence to progress forward like Yaya Toure.

Santon and Debuchy to do what they naturally do, forage forward and cut in/cross, they will have a bit more licence to get forward.

Cabaye to take more creative role on pass release and interplay, with instructions to drop central and deeper in defence. Ben Arfa given free role entirely, provided he tries to close and track off the ball.

Remy - stay on shoulder of opposition and destroy.
