[RX8 40]

This is real sample let´s face the Tactical of both manager

This is Rusia in the Euro cup with Hiddink as a Coach.

Now this is Portugal With Scolari

http://www.eurocopa.com/selecciones/portugal-35157

Now if can see is the same line up... in both national teams...

So.. is like this

Rusia = Portugal = Chelsea

Akinfeev = Ricardo = Cech

Kolodin = Ferreira = A.Cole

Ignashevich = Pepe = Terry

Berezutskiy, A. = Carvalo = Carvalo, Alex

Anyukov = Bosingwa = Bosingwa

Bilyaletdinov = Petit = Obi Mikel

Zhirkov = Deco = Lampard

Zyryanov = Moutinho = Ballack, Deco

Arshavin = Simao = Malouda, Kalou, Quaresma

Sychev = Cristiano Ronaldo = J.Cole, Kalou

Pobrednyak= Nuno Gomez = Anelka, Drogba

As you all can see play the same sistem with the same player in there position...

Hiddink may change the sistem to 4-4-2 but that a variable that Scolari also try to use and didn´t Work also....

So Where is the problem? Was the tactic or the kind of player that we have? I thing the aswer is clear.... We are still playing the same sistem that the Special One Mourinho let in the team.

So me conclution is simple... As long as the team remain the same no coach can make a difference in the tactical game... bacause we don´t have different players... and... as long as a manager don´t last in the team the new player for new sistem will never be implement so we will keep having the same problems... In special when the injurys keep coming every game.

Havent watched much of Russia, but the 4-3-3 that Scolari follows is through the middle of the pitch to allow the Full backs to go forwards on the flanks which is different to 4-3-3 that Mourinho followed which allowed the wingers to operate wide on flanks and cut inside.

Scolari's system of 4-3-3 was very narrow
