4-3-3, the Case for Wingbacks

There comes a time when a shift in strategy looms and it is not due to the game changing drastically alone. With a combination of the introduction of 3-man defenses and FPL Towers only affording us 6 players from a Top-6 team this season, a rather creative approach to the game has surfaced as a contender to the orthodox 3-4-3/3-5-2 that has been the staple of the game for the last decade.

This post serves as a potential "momentous" marker which will hopefully, be the most accurate turning point of history as the Premier League (and all FPL enthusiasts) watch the game introduce the "new" 6.5m midfielder - the Wingback.
