4-5-1 V style is not going so well

[RJSlow]

Just like the real Borussia Dortmund, my team has been terrible in the league, but has been fantastic in the Champions League. As many of you know i use 4-5-1 v style, but in the league this season my 4-5-1 v style has been pathetic. Has anyone else been running into problems with 4-5-1 v style?

Not only 4-5-1V, but V styles in general i guess.. am still looking for a cure for 4-3N-1-2

Yes me also a little bit, i changed THE dmc for a extra mc so now i play 432w1 And didnt conceded Any goal whole conpetition

Wow... tat's awesome!!! What's ur orders for 4-3-2W-1?

Perhaps its just me, I start to notice that the extra MC (3 MCs) can take the opponents AMC as good as a DMC, with Zonal marking of course.

RJSlow yes i do have same problem i lost 5 times this season (and im out of cup), i used to play 451v for 6 seasons and i think i lost my playing way of controle but seems that 451v are not good at all this season ( im first through 6 seasons) and be4 a while i lost with 5-0 it never happened to me at all ... i do notice that using AMC is more powerfull than flank this season so im gonna either change to 4411 or 4312 as i do notice those doing better this season .. wish u the best always . Problem i dont have a good AMC.

Been playing a lot of V formation this season. It's been going well in most matches.

i dont know im the dominator always but without goals even my team better u can say im around 60 in domination but always loose this season only .

[Ahmad Alnatsha]

it is well against ppl do mot control their team well , but when u do face a good controlled game u r gonna suffer as i do ( i was wondering why)

I play V style as well. It is working ok, but I find that this season that 4-4-2 is working better.

I played a home and away with this level 8 team (I am level 5) The first game I started as 4-1-4-1 but moved my ML-AML and MR-AMR up to form a V style mid way through the first half. Here is the result:



Today I played him with 4-4-2 flat arrows on the ML and MR. Here is the result:



Essentially the same players except for an extra striker as opposed to a dmc.

I am planning to use 4-4-2 more often this season.
