how to beat 4-4-2 formation

[Awe Imoleayo Peter]

I Think it's working because you have the middle, your players are everywhere in the middle. They can easily pass around the flat 4

I am against an undefeated 4-4-2 this season in CL semifinal. We are equal quality. He sometimes plays 4-4-1-1. I was thinking on going 4-2(DMC)-3(AMC/R/L)-1 . Any ideas?

I like Arion's idea which is 4 3mc 2 aml /amr 1 or a 3 4 1 2. You will have to change very close to deadline so he can't change his formation to counter. He might be a tinkerer, you never know. Since you guys are equal, you might surprise him with normal / counter. It has really worked for me.

Cup final and i 'm playing vs ESTEGHAL , a +1 lv team
He sent me friend request and accepted.
Well, to spy some games of him.
He 's playing with 4-4-2
Today he got a draw (both managers in the game)
Oppo started with 4-3MC-AML-AMR-1 but later switched from the middle.
Didn't manage to win him with that either.

ESTE later passed a AML instead of ML.
Good team, better qualty than mine, tough formation.
Still don't know how to play.
