More than two thirds of those who voted felt a back three was the way to go, and this is also my personal opinion. We look more solid with three at the back, as Gus MacPherson can play sweeper but not at centre back. Most times when we play with a back four we lose the period of the game we played with that for. We played the first half against Queens Park with a back four and lost the half 2-0!
Mirren Mad's users were asked: Should Saints Go With A Back Three Or A Back Four?
The results were:
Back Three 69.2%
Back Four 30.8%
