My line up soccer-lovers....
Formation: 3-1-4-2
GK - Itumeleng Khune
CB - Siyabonga Sangweni
RB - Siboniso Gaxa
LB - Tshepo Masilela
DM - Andile Jali
LM - Simphiwe Tshabala
RM - Daylon Claasen
RCM - Thulane Serero
LCM - Teko Modise
ST - Bernard Parker
CF - Katleho Mphela
Strategy - full on attack from the wings with the full back only attacking until the 3rd half of the pitch. When attacking on the RM Teko Modise to switch to central role behind Thulani Serero to act as cover. Andile Jali not to surpass the centre line when in attack. Bernard Parker only to drop until Centre line in defence.
When being attacked full backs to compress forcing the opposition to go wide and RCM and LCM to drop far down to assist in defense If we happen to get 2 or more goals... substitutions in the 70th minutes can be made reinforcing the defense in the form of Andile Jali for a defender (Morgan Gould maybe) and subbing Teko Modise for Oupa Manyisa and creating a 4-4-2 formation with Oupa Manyisa as the anchor. Last substitution can then be either for a midfielder or striker. What are your view soccer-lovers?
