Hanover S3 - First Team
Expectations
- Reach a mid table position in the league
Formation 4-3-3
- Change of formation to allow for a more attacking and ball dominant possession based style of play
Signings
RB
- Fosu-Mensah
Brought in for a cheap fee the 23 year old will be rated around 74/75. He can play at CB but will be used as my first choice RB to replace Korb who is 29. Fosu-Mensah has previous hype from playing at Man U and will be a smart transfer going forward as he can develop from his previous hype away from the world media and criticism that follows Man U
CDM
- Brozovic
Brought in as a worldclass player in his position to break into competitiveness in the ligue. A quality all round player in midfield with ability to link well with the back line and split the central defenders for possession
Tactics
- Buildup play starts from playing the ball out from the back with the CBs splitting wide and the CDM dropping short to pick the ball up
- Fullbacks push high and wide and give attacking support to the wingers
- I have two roaming 8's in midfield who have creative freedom the pull the strings behind the front 3 (both provide defensive presence as well)
- Wingers and fullbacks aim to get a high volume of crosses into the target man striker and roaming 8's provide long distance shooting
