@Dynastian As someone who doesn't watch Atletico Madrid or many Spain game, can someone
tell me a bit about Saul playstyle? The only thing that really strike me about him was that sick goal against Bayern and the better call Saul meme afterward. XD

So basically they can play 6 midfielders and no strikers in system and it would still look good... it's insane how many options are possible but I wanna know who should actually be in their midfield? I mean like, first choice or something? Wanna know so I can see your preferences and maybe start a bit of discussion.
Quickly: Iniesta, David Silva, Thiago, Busquets, Fabregas, Cazorla (well won't be active in NT anymore), Isco, Mata, Bruno, Koke, Herrera, Valero, Gabi, Viera, Iborra, Benat, Trigueros, Mesa, Camacho, Saul, Illaramendi, Ceballos and few more players.
Against Italy they played 433 with midfield Iniesta-Busquets-Koke and attack Asensio-Silva-Isco. Basically no real attacker except Asensio. And they dominated Italy (although Ventura's tactics were big fail too). Against Macedonia Costa played but Iniesta was on wing, Silva too, and midfield was Thiago, Isco and Busquets.
Option 1:
Asensio-Morata-Suso/Callejon
----Alcantara-Busquets-Isco----
Option 2:
--------Asensio-Morata-Isco--------
Alcantara-Busquets-Iniesta/Silva
Imo option 1 is kind of perfect for them, they would have one CDM who knows how to control game (they can replace him with Mesa or Herrera). Thiago offers more control and offensively helps system too (not to mention his workrate in defence) and then Isco who would create everything they lack. Suso and Asensio can widen the play and they have good chance creators and scores from every position.
Basically it's insane that even with this they would have Fabregas, Mata, Koke, Herrera and Saul on bench.
Do you agree?
