Introduction
Few day ago when I first signed up to this forum, I realize no one had released a formation with the classic 3 men defence, thus the name ''Johan Cryuff'' appeared in my mind hence I decided to try to emulate his Legendary 3-4-3 in Football Manager 2012, after a number of experiment, I finally got the tactic working. Basically two full-backs flank a sole centre-back behind whereas up front two wingers are fielded either side of a number 9. In the middle we have a rhomboid midfield with two apices. Almost overlapping with the lone pure centre-back, a defensive midfielder is the bottom peak of the midfield diamond.
