How is it that man city always find a way of overloading any midfield and outnumbering any defence in the blink of an eye? Well, that’s because they’re reliant on a structure that first appeared in football nearly 100 years ago, a structure that defies the concept of a formation. In fact, an increasingly discussed topic in football is whether formations are still a viable way of describing a team’s structure. While a team may line up as a 4-3-3 on paper, they could potentially never actually resemble that shape, and players will consistently shift their positioning depending on a number of different factors. But regardless of whether its a 4-3-3, 3-4-3 or 4-2-3-1, some of the best teams in Europe are now going back to a shape first used in the 1920’s, and that shape is the WM.
Whether its Guardiola, Arteta or Xavi, the WM has made it’s way back into football, but it’s use today is completely different from it’s origin, and in today’s video, we’re going to be taking a look at why it’s the perfect system for the modern game.
