Are defensive tactics the best ones?

[Pavel Zelene]

Hi managers,

Everyone know this tactic, for many it worked and for many it didn't.
I want to share this tactic with you, because it really helped me. In old version it was one of most used tactics in Top Eleven. Almost all my friends used it... But the question is: Do you really know how to use it, and how it works?

Check this video, I made it for you guys:


Hope you liked, next video will be about the 4-5v-1.

Yeah, it's very good. Got an association colleague that often use this tactic or some variation of it that is very successful for us.

But he also mixture a lot with the details, I recon a lot of success also comes from that. Knowing how to fine tune it against all different kind of opponents.

Great video BTW!

I couldn't agree more specially after my Cup final today.
4-5-1 V is the formation I like to use , but 4-1-4-1 is what I trust more when playing vs very tough opponents.
My team RINOKEROS (lv12) played in the Cup final vs a lv15 team (leader of his league) so I set 4-1-4-1.
My orders are defense/counter/flanks/low pressing/ normal tackling/zonal / no offside and long passing as oppo played with 4-2-2-2 hex and didn't have DMs.
Red arrows to my ML & MR, blue arrows to my 5 defenders.
Max win bonus, 4 X10% training bonus but didn't use extra bonus as I was watching from old version.
Oppo didn't watch (too bad for him ).

I'm almost always 4411, and use 4141 as well. I haven't quite figured out how to make best use of my DMC, sometimes he's 10, sometimes 6, more inconsistent than most players and positions. But he's 18 this season, maybe next he'll settle in... dmc/DC fast trainer with playmaker added.

It's good to have a DMC/MC and a MC/AMC (extra positions ofc.).
It's much better than giving useless midfield sa like C-K, dribbler or playmaker.
You can switch formations during game, like from 4-1-4-1 to 4-4-1-1 without subs.

Well guys, the 4-1-4-1 is very popular yeah, but in my opinion you should not put blue arrows on ALL defenders, but only on the DCs. Well, atleast for me it worked really well.
I added a video about the 4-5-1 v style, you can find it on my youtube channel.
