A 4-3-3 gets the players most likely to create chances on the field together. The team would play very high pressure, pushing far up the pitch, which necessitates fast centerbacks with good passing. Johnson and 'Dolo provide width going forward to stretch space for the front 6 to interchange, exploit mismatches, and rip shots as the opportunites arise. The biggest weakness of this lineup is that the central defenders are not necessarily great tacklers, so the 3 midfielders will have to hustle back when we're under pressure to help them out - especially against very technically capable opponents where Cameron and Edu's speed and size are less helpful.
