Like your choice of title. But while we're playing silly buggers, you got my title wrong, but I -- unlike you -- was insufficiently pedantic to pick up on it.
They do not, as the former has one more player than the latter. If you actually mean 4-3-3, which I think you do, I think I explained the difference in my post.
I'm not going to give you stick, and agree with most of what you say. Here are some basic points:
-- we will play 4-3-3/4-5-1 irrespective of how attached some on NSC are to a 4-4-2 formation
-- given this, it's a question of how the formation is deployed
-- Oscar has introduced some flexibility...
