    How to counter a 4-1-2-1-2 Narrow Diamond

    I've been having problems trying to counter this formation several times to no effect. The 4-5-1 V style in my opinion hasn't been very effective neither has the 3-5-2 V, so does anyone know of any other formation to counter the narrow diamond effectively?

    What are your orders and arrows for 3-5-2 V? I use this often, and normally have good success with 442ND.

    Try 451v more stable and in the 2nd half turn it to 352v don't use alto of arrow a i just use blue arrow for both DC and my DMC only and if u were playing at your stadium make it defensive with FC and orders are mixed passing as you are playing against ND and it only force from the middle so i guess u need bothe attacking style middle and flank , and play in ur own half with normal tackling , mixed pass style , zonal ! yes i lost be4 2 day against ND at my stadium at the cup but not only because he is stronger than me but also as i wasn't at the match electricity was off and i only lost 1:0 with much stronger ND and i were 451v and when i do search for my statics i was the dominate but he was watching the game and this seems make differences ... so watch the game this is good for supporting ur team ... and good luck

    4-1-3-2 is better to counter this formation

    Appreciate the replies, thank you! I will try the 4-1-3-2 formation, see how I do with that. What orders and tactics should I use for this formation? I'm playing at his ground and unfortunately I won't be attending the match as I'll be at work.

    4-5-1v and 3-5-2v not work.. will try 4-1-3-2 next time.. the only problem i face this season is only with this formation. failed to win in cup and league.
