If I wanted to go with 5 in the back, what roles would you recommend for the 5 in the back? Thanks

Personaly when I used this formation, I gave the side CB's stopper roles and the central one a cover role. I pushed the full backs to wing back position, because they naturaly get back to form a 5 man line. Hope this helps

How did you manage with 5 in the back?

The defence was very solid, best statistic in the league. The downside of the formation is you can get overrun at the wings.
