Facing a 4-3W-3

[Nicky]

I would like to hear your opinion about this module:

DR--DC--DC--DL

MR----MC----ML

---ST-ST-ST

This formation is very effective: it uses the flanks to serve tons of balls to 3 ST.
It's quite covered behind, with 4 defenders and has a sufficient midfield presence.

I've used a 4-5-1V but didn't worked. Best ball possession but very poor in terms of shots on goal, though I was quite stronger (49.2 vs 44) but I drew away.

Now I wonder if I should insist with this module or use a classic 4-4-2.

I was also considering a 3-5-2 which will give me a stronger ball possession and maybe more shots on goal with 2 ST, but it miss protection on the flanks.

The 4-3N-3 is my pain in the ass, I do hope this wide version doesn't became a further one

go 3-4-1-2(that's 3 DC, 4 across midfield, 1 AMC and 2 strikers) and mark zonally, or 3-1-4-1-1(3 DC, 1 DMC, 4 across midfield, AMC, ST) and mark man for man.
