pajoloverboySimply said, it is a perfect formation! Reason: it uses space maximally, both on defence and offence!

On defence you have 2 centre backs, 2 flexible side back and 1 defensive midfielder who can easily transform into another CB!

Pavle Brkovic

On offence on the other hand, you also have, 2 side backs, whose responsibility is to help wingers to go through the line and in combination with 2 creative centre mids they can make a triangle which is always inpredictibile which is always a great trouble to oppositions defence!

Also, the left CM is allowed to be more with the ball so that he can create something inexcpected, so he must me very creative, and the right CM, must me also good with 3D knowledge of space so that he can with simple passing game create some touble with trouhg balls to the FW or the wingers!

The wingers must be very good in situations one on one if they are playing on the side which is opposite to their primary leg, but if they are playing on the side similar to the primary leg, they must be expolsive with excellent crossing and running abilities!

The FW must "know" the game, because he must, in 100% of the game, know what will the CM-s or the wingers will do next, so he must be very intelligent and anticipant!!!

GENERAL RULES:
short simple passing game

synchrone playing of all 3 parts of team(def, mid, for)

deffence must be high so that they can take the ball as soon as possible

great possesion of the ball

on counters, if there are any, the tempo of play must be quick
