It’s not the midfield , it’s the 433 with the two wide strikers playing very wide, thus leaving the “9” isolated. You have to have a very hardworking and able “9” for this to work effectively. That is, not Boden or Fondop. The “9” needs to be good in the air, able to hold the ball up, capable of running beyond defenders and scoring goals. I don’t think Hooper fits this bill either.
