I think it's the same as (5-2-3) which i played last season for just 1 game(cup semi final), which I have 20% possession only as well. Opponent Quality is Half of mine and he was playing 5-3-2. It's kinda weird as these were also "considered" as illegal? That lost of first league cost my cup.

Where do you guys come up with such stupid formations? How can one MC and DMC have possession of the ball in the midfield? Are they passing from one to another until they get to meat with the attackers at the other's team goal? not even 2 MC so they can advance together ... go read about football formations - tactics and learn what works, this game is simple but not for every one to play.
You don't go play competition tennis if you never hold a racket in your hand, or if you played in Mid-School team - do you?

Long balls. 5-2-3 and 4-2-4 are real life formations, albeit rare ones, and there will be wingbacks or wingers supporting the two midfielders. It would be nice if you could add something constructive in a polite manner now and then.
