	16-Dec-20 00:14 guest 2.82.96.154			Commonly used in 2018-2019 by Frankfurt, Sevilla and Atletico Madrid. You have two wingbacks with plenty of stamina to provide width, a trio of centerbacks to fend ofd the opponent, two attacking midfielders as playmakers, two strikers to mirror each other and a single pivot that holds everything together. Like all formations with a back 3, it either requires resilient wingbacks who can spring back quickly when on defense or may end up with a big hole in the wide areas. Offensively it is one hell of a bomb with up to 6-7 players near the box.
