Jack's experimenting with 451 in the friendlies, was more inspired by the serious injury to Quinn which had ruled him out. Jack was inflexible but not stupidly so.
His use of 451 at US94 was pragmatic given the players (and fit players) available to him. It was not evidence of a flexibility with tactics. Charlton was marked by his inflexibility.
The point I was making was in reference the use of 451 by Charlton at US94 was offered as evidence of his flexibility with tactics. I disagree and Jack reverted to 442 quick enough when Quinn was available.
