I'm personally not really a fan of 4-3-3, as essentially you just have one striker and two wingers, and if the midfielders attempt to hold their positions, then they will probably be too close together.
I find 4-1-2-1-2 gives most flexibility as there are two strikers who can link and keep the defence on their toes, two wingers, and a CAM to create behind the strikers, with a CDM to tidy things up in the middle. I'm open to experimenting with new formations though, but I'd give anything with 3 at the back a miss, as the two games we used that we lost, and the other teams attack seemed to cut through the defence far too easily.
Also, in agreement with Weeal, what we really need now are some top class defenders, as all other positions are currently occupied. If you can mark, tackle, and hold a good position (i.e. between the attacker and the goals), we'd love to hear from you. If I have time, I'll give you a trial to look at playing style etc.
