Argumentum artifex
I've not seen the US women break the 4 3 3 in decades... 4 4 2? Leave Smith and Rodman up top, the issue is the top pressure the USWNT have been trained, grilled to manage by Vlatko. They would have to abandon the entire concept on what? 3 days?The midfield has not been dynamic enough to create chances for their forwards.
Thus, it's all about individual effort to get a goal.
I might go 3-4-3 and try to get that diamond in the middle with Ertz as the anchor.
Just haven't liked what I've seen from DeMelo/Sullivan in the midfield.
But, he didn't really give time to other midfielders (Mewis, Sanchez?), so he might be stuck in playing them.
Not good.
