#1 The 4-4-2 formation
Maintaining the back four mentioned in the first slide, Julen Lopetegui can also field another efficient line up for the World Cup by adopting the popular 4-4-2 formation.
Regarded by many as a balanced and effective layout, the 4-4-2 could end up being the ultimate solution to the manager's selection headache in the tournament this year.
In this system, Sergio Busquets and Koke should be paired in the defensive midfield, with Real Madrid's Lucas Vazquez occupying the right flank. Once again, Isco should be deployed on the left wing, with the freedom to roam about in the offensive areas.
Since two attackers will be needed forward, Celta Vigo superstar, Iago Aspas should join Diego Costa up front, functioning as a supporting striker to the Atletico Madrid sharpshooter.
