Consequently all defenders in a back four defend.
The result of that is that is the team becomes predictable and less flexible.
Neither Freiser, Dike or Morris were wingers - but they played as an attacking 3.
Same as Humphreys, Dunn and Fabio did.
I would not describe any of those as wingers like Hammill and Disco.

Yes yer right - it was a pleasure to watch.
Although the formation was different in a 433 the team played more like a team than in any other game this season.
Notably:
There were 3 players involved in the high press that got amongst their defenders and cut down passes.
The midfielders supporting that high press.
And importantly our defence played as a single unit that caught Bolton offside a couple of times.
It was clearly Sormaz who was to blame for the january disaster , it was you who suggested he wasn"t , and playing a strong back 4 does not require any of them to attack , they are there to defend, our midfield and forwards do the attacking , in 1978 playing in the third division which is the same level as we are at now we had a back 4 of Chambers , McCarthy , Evans/Cooper and Joyce who were rock solid and light years in front of what we have now but the only time these lads went on the attack was to go up for set pieces and corners , you can go with a four in the midfield and two up top or go with a three and three , it is time to abandon this failed wing back system as we simply ship goals for fun, poor defending as cost us big time this season , lets hope the penny really has dropped.
