3-4-3 anyone?

[Sir_Brian_Clough]

I've just had a thought. It is either complete tactical genius which would suggest I should be in Dougie's backroom staff or it is a daft idea but still with me on this...

I think we should play 3-4-3 next season. All fully fit side (tough call I know) could look like this:

------------------De Vries------------------

---------Mancienne---Hobbs---Wilson---------

-----Osbourne---Lansbury---Cohen--Reid------

----------Burke---Fryatt---Antonio----------

If all were fit, that is 3 very strong defenders who all of whom can play the ball out well. Defensively, the midfield can tuck in pushing Lansbury and Cohen into DCM roles whilst Osbourn and Reid would force players to go wide to cross the ball in as the middle would be too congested. De Vries deals well with crosses and we have 3 CBs who are all very capable headers of the ball. Going forward, you have Cohen and Osborn's work rate combined with Lansbury and Reid's creativity and passing. Naturally, Burke will play deeper than Anton

Wilson a strong defender? How many you had this lunchtime?

Any Forest team with him in it is a liability and won't get promoted.
