Tactics 532

532 Standard



DESCRIPTION:-



The 5-3-2 formation is a central formation designed to use three central defenders and three central midfielders to give a strong spine to the team.

- Limited width is given by wing-backs that play in defence but are able to move further up the pitch when appropriate.

- This is the defensive version of the formation, in which the outermost midfielders are given freedom to support attacks when appropriate.


WHO IT SUITS:



- Teams looking to play in a solid and organised but positive manner.



- Squads containing fast midfielders and full backs able to support attacking play.



- Teams with a better choice of central than wide players.


NOT SUITED TO:



- Teams looking to play highly defensively.



- Teams lacking central players.








532 Attacking


- This is the attacking version of the formation, in which the wingbacks play in an advanced position and the central midfielders are encouraged to form a five-man front line when in possession.



WHO IT SUITS:


- Teams looking to play in a solid but offensively adventurous manner.


- Teams containing fast, attackingly able midfielders and positive full backs able to support attacking play.


- Teams with a better choice of central than wide players.



NOT SUITED TO:


- Teams looking to play defensively.


- Teams lacking central players.


- Teams without technically strong players suited to a positive style of play.




532 Defensive


- This is the defensive version of the formation, in which the wingbacks and midfield only rarely join the attack, and one central midfielder drops back to shield the defence.



WHO IT SUITS:


- Teams looking to play with extreme caution and/or protect a result.


- Teams containing players that are that are stronger in defence than attack.


- Teams with a better choice of central than wide players.



NOT SUITED TO:


- Teams looking to score lots of goals.


- Teams lacking central players.


- Teams with technically strong players who are suited to a more positive style of play.
