Patrick Vieira has instilled new tactics in New York City F.C. from playing mentalities to formations. He has used two formations this year, but his primary is the 4-3-3 and you have to wonder if it’s really succeeding.
NYCFC’s home field hasn’t been much of an advantage this year as the squad has suffered three out of their five losses in Yankee Stadium. In the first couple of games, Vieira went with a very narrow 3-2-2-3 formation and eventually he threw out the window.
It took NYCFC nearly two months to grab their first home win of 2016 and many questions were raised.
