Ossie loved the diamond when he was manager here.
Popescu at the base, Anderton and Barmby in the middle, Dumitrescu at the top (behind Sheringham and Klinsmann)..... Looked great on paper but crap on grass.
Popescu constantly overrun through the middle with no help, little width to support the fullbacks, ended up just hoping for a bit of magic up front to save us.
Tactically niave. Hopefully Poch avoids the same outcome...
