1 Fullback and 1 wide centerback

[Tryllefot]

I have'nt tried it yeat, but do you think a back four like this could work?

FB - CB/BPD-CB/BPD-WCB

The thought is more defensive coverage on the side where the wide centerback will be playing. in midfield I'm planning a CMA and a winger on support or attack.,

Go for it  

Sounds like a very flat back 4 if the WCB is on defend duty. Might consider looking to have the FB go forward as a WB. Usually you want at least one of your wide defenders providing support to your attack. 

If it's a WCB(s/a) you'll have a very exposed right flank, although personally I think I would prefer to experiment like this, asymmetrical formations/overloads can be quite powerful.

I use similar in a 433/3241 "Pep" stryle.

 

WCB/D-CD/C-BPD-D-IWB-S

Have the WCB/D set to man mark the winger on that side
