4-4-1-1

Benitez used this formation earlier in the season but struggled to find that much success.This would probably suit Almirons style of play more with two up front and the playmaker just behind Rondon.Atsu could then be deployed on the left and they would revert to a back four. This could be slightly riskier away from home but it would depend if Benitez wants to find a system for Almiron or fit him in to the one they currently use.The 4-4-1-1 formation has been used by Benitez earlier this season5
