The 4-3-3 is by far the most popular formation in the modern game. From premier league winners Manchester city, to champions league finalists in Liverpool and Real Madrid, it’s been the most used formation for almost two decades. So how exactly do you stop it? And will any formation eventually steal it’s crown? In today’s video, were going to be taking a look at how to counter the 4-3-3.
it’s important to note that no two teams are the same, and even if they play with the same formation, managers and players will mean each team has their own unique style of play. For example Klopp and Guardiola both use the 433, however both teams have drastically different playstyles.
The 4-3-3 gives a team excellent offensive and defensive balance. The natural shape means the team can quickly cover the pitch both vertically and horizontally, and players who receive the ball will almost always have at least two passing options given the triangular shape between positions. It has great central cover and with pretty basic rotations can quickly have a lot of players on the attack, with the fullbacks pushing up, the two box to box midfielders as support, and with a back 3 defensive unit to stop any counters. Without possession, it’s the go-to formation for high pressing teams, as it can quickly cover passing lanes and have players ready to double up on the player on the ball.
Now on the flip side of the coin the aggressive nature of this formation means it can struggle against quick counter attacks, especially on the flanks in pocket’s of space behind the fullbacks. It’s also a formation that requires constant movement to provide passing options, and can often struggle to break down a low defensive block. While it has great central cover, the flanks are, generally speaking, the most exposed areas of the pitch, and requires the attacking players to help out defensively consistently throughout the match.
The basic structure but complex rotations of the 433 means it’s a formation that is extremely tough to master and requires the right players for the job.
Beating the 433 is no easy task, but with excellent organization and quick movement the 433 can be just as vulnerable as any other formation
