2 striker formations are somewhat of a rarity among the top sides in Europe nowadays, but we just can't seem to get on with 1 up top, so a 3 at the back formation seems the only way to go if we're to keep a lot of bodies in the midfield area.
I'd put it down to us not signing proper wingers. The only natural winger I'd say we have right now is Ibe. In his time here Brendan has preferred to sign forwards/number 10s who can do a job out wide. Markovic would be an exception in that his best position was obviously on the wing, but we chose to deploy him as a wing back and then loan him out...
