Today i will write about 433 and total football. How it works and how to get the best out of 4-3-3 and total football?
I will not go into history too much details and wide. Just a short intro of the history.
The history of this 433 and total football got back to a guy which name Rinus Michels. Who introduced this playing style into the football game. He managed Ajax from 1965 -1971.
Then he managed Barcelona from 1971 - 1974. And trough this introducing. Later, we have been observed of the amazing team with :
Messi - Xavi - Busquets - Iniesta - Ronaldinho + Henry/Eto.
Later it has been the inspiration to today Pep and City 433 formation and football style.
Now I will I explain which abilities it require in different positions. In the 4-3-3 formation.
We start with the backline. The backline here is not different from 4-4-2 formation.
With 2 CB. And 2 fullbacks that fly up and down the wide sides.
Then the big difference is the midfield. In a 433 there’s a 3 men central midfield players compare to 442 with central midfield duo.
We start with the deepest of the cm player who calling the deep lying playmaker. The DCM.
He is controlling and dictating the ball and game from the deep. Spread the ball around. Short or long as how opponent open up their game. He is link and connection between defend and attack. Even the defend can play long ball to the attack. Without playing trough him. But most often he is the mind and architect behind a team build up play and attack. He gets to has eyes to see the trough passes really quick to CF or the wingers. Special when the opponent teams just loose the ball, totally open and have a back line. Then have players with those precise trough passes are crucial.
And most of all he hold back more than the two offensive cm beside each sides of him.
Then we have the two offensive and creative cm players playing on each sides of the DCM/Nr.6. 2 nr.8 that are calling LCM and RCM. They are runners. Lead and run with the ball from midfield to attack. They get to have abilities to pass opponents in central midfield area and few touches combination short pass and movement football. Second best dribble in the team.
In the final third. We have the attacking line. The front 3. Two pacey and skillful wingers and sharp and clinical CF. The wingers are best dribbles in the team. They are good one on one.
And beside theirs high skill and top speed and acceleration. Theirs shall be capable to score around 10 goals average. Not only set up to CF, but have goals in theirs game too. Like the two nr.8, the LCM and RCM.
Then upfront and in the centre. The team sharp and clinical finisher and sniper. Best finisher in the team. No need to be a big target man that hold up. But a CF like Brazil Ronaldo and Benzema will work too. The super skillful and fast CF. The one on one CF.
All depends on the top consistent service he gets from midfield, wingbacks and wingers. If the services are of top quality and consistent. He will get big chances to puts it in and scores.
Now, I will set up an example of the max level in position that I have observed since I start watching football.
The starting line up XI in a 4-3-3 and total football. And with right and left back. I prefer and choose natural foot for left back. Like left foot for left back. Here they are :
GK : Manuel Neuer
Lahm - Lucio - Maldini - Carlos
Bruyne - Pirlo - Iniesta
Messi Bra Ronaldo Ronaldinho
There you have. An example of a max and complete 4-3-3 line up and XI.
Where we can Bruyne and Iniesta are runners and dribblers from central midfield. On each side of Pirlo who spread the passes around from his deep central midfield area. Not offensive as Bruyne and Iniesta. Pirlo holds it back more. Control, balance and dictate the ball and game from there.
Then we have the two pacey, explosives and skillful wingers. With top one on one ability and ability to score many goals from theirs wing position. In Messi and Ronaldinho. Same for Bruyne and Iniesta.
And upfront you have the CF, who had the best one on one ability. Beside beings super sharp and clinical. A super skillful and clinical CF.
Sum up. Those players at theirs peak. Are best players in each position in the 4-3-3 formation and total football. Together theirs make the team complete. With maybe only few, a little bit weakness.
World class players in each positions. The top level and top of the mountains. GOATs in football history.
But understandable. This is only a dream team. It will not happen in club football. That a football club will get equal good as this dream team. World class players in each position. On club level. Even today Pep and City and Liverpool 4-3-3 are not even close to this Dream team. But if you are getting as closest to the top and world class level in each position. Then you are creating a dominating and winning team.
In the end. 4-3-3 and total football and formation it’s there for every football to play and reaching. It’s doesn’t belong to a person or any club in the world. It’s no Cruyff or Pep style, formation and philosophy. It belong to everyone. It’s only ours human ego telling the world it’s my style and philosophy. But the truth is. Everything is there, ready to be taken and use.
So don’t get delude by human ego mind. It will closer our perspective and will not us see the truth and how things are relating to each others in this Universe.
Wish all the readers have a nice day and thank for reading
