CL semifinals

Hi guys,

Currently a level 2 manager and I'm doing decently right now, qualified for semi-finals in both the cup and champions league, 2nd place in league but catching up. Have some trouble right now since I'm matched up against a stronger opponent, so will appreciate any help I can get.

Champions League
Average quality of 20.2 vs Opponents' quality of 21.4

Opponent is playing with 4W-1 DMC-1 MC- 2 AMC - 2ST

Players deployed on his right flank is stronger than his left, and his DR is a scout. I don't have that many great players, but have decent MCs/MR/ML/AMR so intend to use that to my advantage and go strong there. Current intended formation will be something like 3N-3MC + ML - 1 AMR - 2 ST (taking middle and left spot).

Only arrows I have is a red one on my ML.

Please advise - thanks a lot.

I was thinking of 3-1-4-2 flat or 3-1-2-2-2 v style.

Okay got past this guy, thanks a lot.

Next opponent for cup players a 4W-1 DMC - 4 MC - 1 ST formation, his players are certainly better individually, although he lacks depth. Any idea how I can go about playing him?
