My question is simple: what formation gets the very best out of this group of players? Why a Back Three Could Suit ArsenalA couple of seasons ago, the inverted full-back became football’s latest tactical craze. Imagine Arsenal lining up in a 3-4-3 with David Raya continuing in his sweeper-keeper role. It is my belief that Ødegaard actually looks more comfortable dictating play from deeper areas than operating closer to goal. Looking at Arsenal’s current squad, I genuinely believe we have many of the same player profiles needed to make a similar system work in the Premier League.
