There's a Bobby Charlton interview on the BBC which discusses the Munich crash, and shows a Man U teamsheet from that time set up in 5-3-2 formation.

I always thought it was mor like a 3-2-5 at school in those days. Maybe Alaneagle1 can remember. I recall a left, right and centre back, a left and right midfield, a centre forward with an inside left and inside right and then your two wingers. Attack was the name of the game...

I definitely remember two at the back cos they were always the slow ones! Then I changed school in 1973 and it was 4-3-3 which seemed very progressive. I don't see how Man U in 1958 could have defended against 5 forwards with only two full backs. Maybe the centre half dropped back.

That's how we were rigidly set up at school, and for many years I thought those positionings were mandatory, as everyone stood in their allotted place at kickoff. Originally posted by alaneagle1
