    I don't understand Dutch, but they just showed on rtl4 the formation and it looks very mobile and fluid.

    No it's a 343 disguised as a 352.

    Haha this is great. So many possible formations. Depay is playing the free flow role down the left.

    2 inverted wingers that will test the keeper, which is strange as their keeper is quite strong.

    To switch from waiting mode to proactive mode is dangerous. CR could benefit from that.

    I just hear Ronald de Boer claiming it will 3-4-1-2. Van Marwijk thinks it is also possible we will play with a diamond in midfield and 3 forwards then.

    We will see :)

    Its somewhere between a 4-3-3 and a 5-2-3 since neither Kuyt nor Blind are really wingers, nor are they playing left or rightbacks
