Luis Enrique : i think barca will stick with 3-4-3 against mancity

Luis Enrique has hinted that Barcelona could stick with a 3-4-3 after the formation was successfully experimented against Deportivo La Coruna.

An injury to Sergi Roberto for the visit of Depor in La Liga on Saturday saw Enrique opt for three centre-backs instead of recalling Aleix Vidal – a tactica

l change that seemed to pay dividends as Barca cruised to a 4-0 victory. “You saw Leo come back and also at full throttle,” the Coach said after the game. “Variants to our game? They’re things that can always cause problems for the opposing Coach because I look at Manchester City and I know they have many possibilities to offer. “At half-time, we were 3-0 up and I reminded the team that our opponents were able to overturn a 2-0 in the last two years, so we had to play with intelligence.“The team came back out calmly and did what they had to do. “I’m very satisfied because the lads have shown they can read different types of games and do so without any problems.This makes us more unpredictable andmuch richer tactically. “Alcacer? We all know that strikers want to score goals, but it’s true that against Depor he had no luck. “What reassures me is that in training he scores goals and in games he gets many chances.“I’m sure he’ll score many goals for
Barcelona, but it’s clear that he’s finding it hard at first, as did Luis Suarez. The support from the stands encouraged him at all times. “Three at the back against City? Mascherano is very quick, Mathieu is the quickest and Pique is very quick despite his height. “I won’t say how we’ll play, but obviously it’s a possibility because the players are understanding the 3-4-3 perfectly well.”
lately,i am not all that impressed  with how we look, formations and tactically speaking ... sure we will 
win, but I have a feeling Luis is at it , trying too many things, too often.. 3-4-3 again, against a team we lost points to so many times in recent games, no lesson learned. God help us.
