gerbar Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Hello all ! I'm french, sorry for my poor english (as bad as Puel's). Compared to Leicester, Nice team had different player's profiles, their diamond was based on fast midget midfielders with good football IQ (Mendy, Koziello, Seri) and Ben Arfa had a lot of freedom, playing anywhere on the front line. They played 4-4-2 in attack and when they lost the ball, if they couldn't recover it within a few seconds they switched to defensive formation 4-5-1. There's a good webpage about Puel's tactics with Nice, the funny things is the conclusion, the writer thought although the tactics were good, they couldn't reach the top 5 because the team level was average, they finished 4th (2 points behind Lyon and Monaco). http://analysport.fr/ogc-nice/ It's in french, but you can grasp some of the explanations through Google translate :https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fanalysport.fr%2Fogc-nice%2F
Jazzy_Jeff Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 who knows, maybe we might have a management now who alter personnel and formation based on opponent

Quote Exactly this. Fuchs can swap with Chilwell. Gray can start right side against more defensive sides. Slimani or Ihenacho can also parter Vardy, whilst Shinji could do a job at 10, as could King (if desperate). When Silva's available we can also play a flatter 3 in the middle if required. Maguire can also bring the ball out with less fear about leaving someone 1 on 1 with Wes. This is suits us so much better.
Guest Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 please no more Fuchs and we may as well have Albrighton replace Simpson rather than have him on the bench.

gerbar Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Mendy was at the base of the diamond behind Seri and Koziello, he played for Claude from 2013 to 2016.
