AEK Athens Football Formation

Lineup (4-3-1-2)

Always good to play with 2 strikers, especially when they complement each other. The pace and technique of Samaras combined with the poacher and instinctive Gekas.

In midfield, you will have to have 4 sliding midfielders in defence, so as a team you will still have numbers behind the ball when you defend (i.e. 8 players).

In attack, the full-backs must get forward and provide width when possible...if not the strikers must work the channels as well as the midfielders.

The above team for Greece is young with an eye on the future, as apart from Gekas (32) no one is over 27...
