@Liu Kang what you think about the back 3 becoming more and more popular in the PL? Think I saw Hull play with it recently :lupe: stopgap measure for injuries or an emerging trend?

@mastermind :lupe:

Not a trend until you see articles popping up about the benefits and drawbacks. As of now it's a stopgap, IMO. Reminds me of when 4/3 defensive schemes were predominant across the NFL and teams started running the 3/4 because of personnel or an odd coach's preference.

Edit: :bryan:yeah should have left this to @Liu Kang

Well I have been seeing murmurs about it since the end of the year roundups dropped. Example:

Thanks for the overview @Liu Kang :tu:
