Soccer Question: Is my 4-3-3 Formation the best for my team and why?



I have 3 small, fast, and talented forwards. I have 3 average midfielders. I have a big, fast, physical stopper with lil soccer experience. I have two semi-athletic full backs with some size and physicality. I have a skilled sweeper with a descent boot. And I have a lanky and athletic goalie. Is this the best formation for my team? And if it is what should I concentrate on with what I have?

If you dont press
the other teams defense,
your formation will be nulified.
You need to take advantage
of having 3 men up front
and make it hard
for the other teams defenders
to make good passes.
This makes it easier for a 3 man midfield
(in this case 'your 3 man midfield')
to pick up the ball in their own area of play.
Although, it's really about strategy,
(and compensation)
more than formation it-self!
Three-men midfields
tend to count on
lots of side-back support.
One man offenses
usually count on,
at least two, very offensive mid-fielders.
Three men defenses
recieve a lot of mid field support..., etc...
Team work is what it comes down to!
But it sounds like
you just need to find
a way to keep the ball
in your offensive half.
And pressuring the
other teams' defense
is a good way to do that.
(specially with numbers up front!)
Formation are more of a guideline
than anything else anyway.
But don't tell that to your players!

I'd play 5-3-2 / 3-5-2, with your full backs pushing up, but then again what do I know, I campaigned for Mike Newell to be an England regular.
Dont play all your forwards atthe start. Let 2 start n go all out. By 65 mins. if 1 of em is tired bring on fresh legs(your other forward) so u will have an all out attack by @ least 1 forward throughout the game. This will give u more chances of scoring.

Good luck for the game!!!
4-3-3 sounds okay, but if you want to really boost your mediocre midfield you might want to consider dropping one of your attackers back to midfield. Again, your formation may work fine too, if your three forwards work well together, but if not it is always essential to have a good midfield because you could have a great offense and defense but it becomes a game on one side of the field (your defensive end) if your midfielders don't pull their weight. Add more details if you want more info on what I think.
have a diamond midfield. put one of your forwards at the top of the diamond just behind the 2 strikers. Put the 2 faster midfielders at the wings and your most defensive mid at the back of the diamond.
yes It's a great formation you should focus in your team attacking facility and your defender .
in your strategy you most focus in wings long passes and counter attack . so you can dominants the matches .
train your midfielders on holding the ball...play 3 a side to give them confidence on the ball...thats what my old coach told me and now im playing for a club...a big club anw!so gd luck! good formation u have there! maybe more training and a tune up game will be good for ur team!
