You know what I like about Spain?

No fancy 4-5-1 or a make believe 4-3-3 like Italy and Chelsea play which is really a 4-5-1 because they are two wide players up front tying to support the lone striker. Spain on the other hands keeps with old school with a flat 4-4-2. You have a static back line with only Ramos making the run up field but that is usually covered by Senna who’s role in the midfield is to do the dirty work. The other three midfield players are all trying to create for the two strikers up front instead. That is unlike the popular lone striker holding play up trying to connect with his midfield players.
