Interestingly, as BillyCarpenter pointed out on Twitter, Vieira fingered a 3-4-3 Diamond when he and ESR came on. Probably an evolution of when we tried to throw people forwards on the Man U game we lost last season. Tierney and White seem uniquely qualified on our squad to do such a thing, to be honest; both have played significant minutes at their side’s CB, while also being good enough as traditional fullbacks to help nullify the threats from the wings and even bring things forwards as an extra threat.
