guest 24.11.114.255 | | | I play a 3-3-2-2 on offense but a 3-2-3-2 on defense. On offense one of our offensive center mids drops back and plays along side of our defensive mid. This clogs up the center nicely and still provides us with outlets for distribution. It shuts down opponents like we were playing a 5-3-2 but is quickly converted into a 3-5-2 when we are on the attack. This helps us maintain possession of the ball and often times find oursevles on the attack for long periods of time. Communication and center mids that can run are essential to this changing formation. |

guest 24.99.206.238 | | | This is an old variation of the W-M (W-W) formation of the days when Hungary ruled European soccer. English clubs, when faced with the prospect of not having a central forward to mark, found themselves unsure about how to handle the late arriving, recessed forward. Of Course, having Puskas, et al didn t hurt. | | | |

 New South Wales | | | This system works very well for girls teams. I have coached my sons from under 6s in div 1 teams until they were senior players and always found 4-4-2 worked a treat, but now coaching my daughters team (with only mixed success last year) I tried the 3-2-3-2 this year and they are now 6 wins from 6 this season with a 19-1 goal difference. Give it a try. | | | |

 Nevada | | | This formation will take a few seasons before it starts to create some team chemistry, even in professional teams. However a good attacking midfielder can speed up the process. (several good long distance shooters are recommended) | | | |

 Montevideo | | | This is what i call a good full-out attacking formation. I d like to see this one used more often at high competition level (WC, Champions League, Libertadores Cup, European Championship, Copa America, etc...)
But that s me, i like attacking football. | | | |

guest 60.50.172.67 | | | I love to use this 3-2-3-2 attacking formation and its very easy to control game and can score more goals. | | | |

guest 75.99.155.2 | | | I love the 3-2-3-2 for my youth teams. I found this to be the easiest transition from the small-sided 8v8 game. In essence, I kept the same small-sided formation but just added a line of defenders. With a 3-2-3-2 there are triangles all over the field so you create lots of 2v1 situations. The two Defensive Midfielders should be strong tacklers and be able to quickly distribute the ball. The three Midfielders need to be skilled as they are your playmakers. If I have two fast forwards, I play them side-by-side. If I have a very skilled forward then I tend to play him withdrawn a bit.
SS GAME:
----RB----LB----
RM----CM----LM
----ST----ST----

guest 175.223.18.254 | | | This formation does have a lot if advantages in terms of teaching young players how to defend man to man and apply cooperative defensive pressures on the whole field against the other team but I am personally lost when teaching them how to reconstruct the defensive parameters when the side defenders are beaten and have allowed some space on the flank | | | |

guest 124.169.29.40 | | | 3-2-3-2 you have 2 strikers, 3 midfielders & 2 supporting players between the centre sweeper & the left & right full backs. The formation gives players the opportunity to play the ball in diamond,V or W formation great especially for younger players you can play wide along the wing or straight up the midfield.The 2 players drifting between /supporting attack & defence.These players can also be used for throwinns without compromising your kids or back. The formation is also changeable during games quite easly due to the 2 holding backs. | | | |

guest 66.87.101.65 | | | I plan to use this formation to for my U19 boys team today. My team is having a hard time working together with a traditional 4-4-2. The defense is having trouble getting the Mid field to support and my offensive mid to strikers are having trouble communicating. I hope the 3-2-2-3 will show clear positioning for all areas of the team.
I ll update this trial formatting ion this evening... | | | |

guest 117.20.68.251 | | | I used this with my u13 boys last week and beat the bottom side 6 nil. So it s crucial to have a creative, goal scoring CM and at least one fast CF. Brilliant if you are leaking Goals as the 3 Backs + 2 CDMs block out just about any avenues. Will use against the top team this Weekend. | | | |

guest 41.13.143.200 | | | Yes I agree the formation is more profitable if the two defensive midfielders are playing to their level best when distributing the ball and also if they have play very well when the team is defending | | | |

guest 166.216.158.21 | | | 1-3-2-3-2
Tactically, offers great opportunities for attacking interior to rotate vertical position... the conventionalists just go with 3-2-5 or a 3-2- tight 1-4... rather, I prefer to take the route less traveled when the tight 1-4 is what opponents tend to prep for.
The two Strikers drop back while the attacking midfielder moves-forward position... this confuses the defenders whose assignments are likely juxtaposed. With defenders now having to mark differently, a cat n mouse game of back and forth can be dictated by attackers leapfrogging attack zone positioning. This causes confusion, and holes begin to open for through-balls, loft touches and spot shots in front of goal.
Additionally, with the focus by defense on interior confusion, the outside wingers should be ample outlets to send in crosses, provided a dual DM unit can hold the bottom of the attack zone created to clean-up clear-outs by opponent defense. Of course, like any back 3 system, CB's must be supreme. | | | |
