Louis Van Gaal - Philosophy /Man United 2015/16
4-2-3-1 / 4-4-1-1 : Ball possession + No risk + Tactical discipline
LVG about #10 role : "I prefer that position to be more a second striker than a third midfielder."
"A match is defined in four main moments," said van Gaal. "We call them ball possession, ball possession of the opponent, transition to ball possession and transition to ball possession of the opponent. That you have to see [analyse] in every system at a main moment and then the systems are always different.
"So when you play in ball possession of the opponent it can be 4-2-3-1 but it can also be 4-4-1-1. It is dependable of how you play against an opponent. I hope the spectators are still aware of what I’ve said but it is like that."
Full-backs Matteo Darmian and Luke Shaw are also integral to the manager's formation : "In our playing style, they are very important because they have to overlap our wingers who are playing there," added van Gaal.
