I took over at Oxford Utd at the start of the third season after they had been relegated to League 2. Expectations was to win the league but after a poor start using various formations I adapted this from a 4-4-2 diamond I had used in previous season when I was at Eastleigh. After changing to this in mid November we went on to win the league comfortably.
