Plenty of articles about that conclude EITHER way !
I don't understand how that article concludes that between 2004 and 2007 Mourinho's Chelsea played a 4-3-2-1 Christmas tree.
I agree that 4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3 are very similar. If you mean 4-2-3-1 as what Mourinho played at Chelsea in the past then that is an understandable argument. He just never played a Christmas tree formation at Chelsea.
OldburyWBA, the links were not there to support my opinion directly. That Mourinho played 4-3-3 at Chelsea is fact (surely?) and not opinion. So the links support that factual part of the argument. Throstle79 agrees that Makelele performed well at Chelsea and so that added to the fact that Mourinho played 4-3-3 supported my argument completely that a holding midfielder could perform well for WBA in a 4-3-3 formation.
Without the links how could I prove that the fact that Mourinho played 4-3-3 at Chelsea was factual, when Throstle79 was disputing it?
If I have broken any rules then please let me know (In here or PM) so that I know for future
