I also agree with Alan in terms of the manager trying something.
The only thing is when you play with a five at the back, and I've played in a five at the back.
People think we just play a five at the back.
You could have offensive formation, you could have a defensive formation.
Inter Milan did it really well where they dropped in, but then when they went, they all went.
Rotations were brilliant.
The only thing yesterday with Liverpool was when they was at the five at the back,
Because of the movement of PSG, Van Dijk had to step out and Canati had to step out into places where they didn't want to be.
So the reason why you play with five at the back is so you're stable at the back.
But then when the ball goes into midfield, you've got to jump early.
But because PSG are so...
Electric.
It was so hard for them to get anywhere near it.
And once you sent Araf steps out and then Kanati misses one and they've got the pace of Nudo Mendes and Hakimi.
It was just a recipe for disaster.
I would have gone with five at the back, but my wing back stay.
Because what they was doing is sort of getting caught in between and then four in midfield in front of them.
