Exactly 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3 or 3-5-2 we should be adapting the formation depending on theopponent and the players we have available for selection.

Front two pressed great, wide men did well, defended well enough.
Altogether we looked more cohesive in this shape and it allows us to get Auba and Laca on, wonder if Emery will stick with it after the international break.
Don't get me wrong we've done well in the other games with 4-2-3-1 but we looked more like we got out of jail and dug out a result rather than absolutely dominate like we did Saturday, it was all "We didn't play well but still won" as opposed to performance of the season.
Either way I trust Emery to do what's needed, been a while since I've been able to say that about our manager.

We played 4-4-2 in the first half and were shit. I think it's more about the players than the formation.
