Template 4-2-3-1 moves to 3-1-2-4 when possession progresses (see 157944). James (RB) pushes onto an advanced wing-forward role, which consequently creates a three at the back. The right centre-mid becomes the holding player, who dictates tempo and direction of attacks. This creates a midfield triangle in front of a flatter back three, allowing easy movement in build up. Ziyech moves infield to become a free 8 alongside the left centre-mid. As well as James, the left attacking midfielder becomes the left winger, and so with Havertz pushing up, you create a attacking 4 to pin the defence back.
