How to Win Against Any Formation?

[Adel Gamal]

Sorry guys the MDKII need to make me a joke for everyone, so I'm out and I'll force him delete all my contributions before he ban me forever.

I'm so sorry for the wasted time here in this forum.

He removed my signature for the 4th time because he is sure it was against the rules and disrupting regular forum posts, but i know it isn't.

NOW DELETE THE TOPIC COMFORTABLY.

The answer you are looking for is just above in the guide, listed as 4-2-2-2 with AML/AMR same formation more potent than your opponents, same counter will be affective.

Against 4-4-2, I found out that following tact works pretty well every time I counter given formation:


----------------ST--------------
---------------------------------
ML (UP)--MC-------MC----MR (UP)
------------DMC (UP)------------
-DL (UP)-----DC--DC-----DR (UP)-


Ment normal/attacking, passing from the flanks, rest options remain default
Feel free to comment on that

4-4-2 is not a very strong formation on the game; it rules the midfield and defence but offers very little going forward.

Anything to back this up? I've played four seasons with 442 and been top scorer in the league three times.

Hi,
very good so far, I used the tactics against 442 and it worked twice so far.
Now, you explained the tactics against 4-1-3-2 Wide, but what to do if he is not using wide but centered, meaning 3x MCs?
I have come up with
----St----
ML--MC--MR
--DMC-DMC-
DL-DC-DC-DR
With red arrows on ML, MR, DL and DR and both DMCs. What do you think?

Can we have this topic pinned on the main page, so as to reduce the number of 'how to beat this formation' topics.
