I hate the 451 system it seemingly isn't benefiting anybody these days. There used to be a case in the last few years where 'weaker' sides would try and pack the midfield but recent results have shown if away sides go for it, with two up front, they're like to fare better. Home or stronger sides end up getting more negative results. Switch back to 442 I say.

Alcaraz sent off. That's got to be game over for Wigan now, we were already all over them.

That was a pretty bad penalty (yes I have money on your game).
451 doesnt seem so effective, but there's a case to be had still for systems deploying an advanced Midfielder / deep second striker who carry a goal threat, who are comfortable dropping back if they need to without being a complete waste (Gerrard, Aguero and players in this mould ).

Time for a second striker maybe against 9 men? Would be cool to see Hernandez and Rooney get a goal or two

Finally playing 2 up front, had to be done against 9 man Wigan.
