Can anyone give me some advice on how to play the 4231 formation with two holding midfielders. I really want my central midfielders to sit in front of the back four and break up plays and then distribute the ball to the attacking players. I am playing with Arsenal and my favourite formation is really the 4231. I have tried playing the 433/451 but it does not feel right to me. My options in midfield are Song, Arteta, Ramsey, Frimpong and Caquelin. I am not sure about the ball winning midfielder because from what I read the ball winning midfielder presses and closes down leaving the central midfielder to chase the ball leaving a gap in central midfield. I want my central midfielders to stay and protect the back four.
So if anyone has any advice on hour to achieve this please let me know.
