Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the False 9 should sit deeper (closer to the midfield) and link up play than the DLF, correct? I had a flat 4141 that was using a False 9 and the play would be very hot or cold. Either the F9 was isolated and contributed absolutely nothing, or just completely dominated.
I changed to a DLF-S for a bit and had a stark difference in consistency. I couldn't tell really with the naked how if the DLF sat THAT much deeper, but it seemed to work much, much better as a lone striker for the flat 4 in the midfield.
