Crystal Palace coach Glasner has recently become one of the most popular coaches in European football. Recently, he talked about his tactical philosophy in an exclusive interview with StadiumAstro.
"Formation? It must be suitable for players. There are too many discussions about formations. In fact, formation itself is not important. What matters is habits, game mode and how you want the players to perform on the court. These are the real keys."
"I have tried all formations in my coaching career. I used 442 to upgrade to Linz in Austria, and later changed to 343. I scored 4231 to the Champions League at Wolfsburg and three defenders in Frankfurt, which are very suitable for the lineup at that time."
"I always consider the most suitable formation for existing players. Although 442 is my favorite, do we have suitable players? So we are more discussing the habits of players rather than the formation itself. The formation can be very flexible. The key is that the players must understand what we want to do, which is the key to determining success or failure."
