We could go with the classic Stoke formation, no midfield, 6 centrebacks and 4 shoddy strikers up top, no need for a midfield when you've got the hoof.

Wow.....I counted 5!!
That's the amount of times my eyes have rolled during this thread. We play a few different formations based on whomever we are playing and their strengths and weaknesses. Moyes is no mug, hence the confusion to what we actually play. It differs, simple as.

He changes it quite a bit depending on the opponent.
Stop looking at the players' preferred positions, and look at the actual formations. They've played 4-5-1, 4-4-1-1, 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2, and I'm not even taking into account when he takes certain opponents out of the game with formations.
It cracks me up to read that Moyes doesn't change, because the reality is pretty much the complete opposite, he's too reactive at times.
A good summary:

I think 4-2-2-2 would be good
Correct me if I'm wrong... But Fella seemed to be able to play the no 10 position quite well the last few games, just completely different than anyone else has ever played it. Looked a bit iffy in attacking positions with the ball at feet, and didn't/can't shoot, but gave the opposition something completely different to think about and no-one dealt with it really well. He gave an "out" for the inevitable long ball and seemed to win a lot to advantage as well... Plays there for Belgium too... Don't mind him staying there tbh.
Why spend x million on a 10 when we could have him already? Spend x mill on a defensive midfielder, much easier.

I thought we play more of a 4-2-3-1 with the AMC coming back and helping dictate the play.

We have kinda been playing that lately which is cool. It's often been Nev and Gibson holding with the forward trio of Pienaar, Felli & Ossie behind Jelavic. It has worked pretty well.
What were we doing at the start of the season when we were horribly gash? I can't even remember I've blanked it from memory.
4-4-1-1, with no mobility from Saha and Cahill; the team looked stagnent and no movement.
The movement of Jelavic, coupled with Pienaar and his amazing technical ability, has lifted the team and the balance seems to be back.

Don't forget the Jagielka howitzers from the back and Jack Rodwell in midfield.
