CL Game - Mission Impossible! (team 10 stars above me!!)

Hello everybody!

I'm playing Semifinal game against the future CL champion lol.
His team is 10 stars above mine... team value about 30million above mine too... :):)

He plays 4-5-1 V and I don't know what to do to try to stop him or at least make it a bit harder to reach the final :confused:

I was thinking 4-3N-2W-1 as I've searched around and seems a good counter but his team is way toooo gooood compared to mine :)

I'm afraid to play hard tackling because he will score lots of goals but guess will have to play

Full Pitch - Normal tackling - Down both flanks - long ball + Counter? (as I think he will play attacking with such a good team!)

Thanks :)

3-2-3-2 dc-dc-dc-dmr-dlr-3mc-2st

---DC---DC---DC---
DMR-------------DML
-----MC-MC-MC-----
---------------------
------ST----ST-----

attacking,short passing, through middle, normal tackling, own half, no counter/offside, zonal marking

Tell me if you won

Thanks for the input!

I always update my posts so maybe this will help other people that are reading forums :)

Are you sure I should play attacking?
Other team is rated 10+ Quality than mine...

My Team quality is only 20 against 30 quality team!

My best player is a AMC, he scored lots of goals and many assists this season, you think I should change to this:

3-2-3-1-1 so I can use my AMC too? :)

I would say, if you play normal or defense, you wouldnt be able to get much opportunitys to score. Attacking Mentality will get you more posession and thats what you need against a stronger opponent.

You stop his AML/AMR with your DMR/DML. If you use blue arrows on your DC's , his attacking is almost stopped completely.

I often let my AMC play as a ST when i change my formation and he does great,so dont worry.

He plays 4-5-1 V, so your AMC gets disabled by his DMC. He wont get much chances to score. So its useless to let him play on AMC.

Switch him to ST if you want him to score.


I hope you'll win that **** !



P.S:

Im playing in CL Semi Finals against a stronger opponent too, and i use the same system i recommended you now.

easy 3 steps:
Disable his attackers,
focus passing into free spaces
watch his formation to make sure YOUR attackers wont get disabled.

And it will sure be a balanced match!

Ok Kommando!
I will do as you say and post result and full statistics :)

If you watch it on your PC, watch his formation. If he changes it inside the game, you should change yours too.

I wish you luck my friend!

Sorry but Kommando i dont think your suggestions are that great.

1st. He is playing against a much stronger opponent and when we play 4-5-1 v we usually attack through flanks and most often red arrows on amr aml. His opponent's amr aml surely is going to outrun his dml dmr because of the higher speed. Once they do that, its bye bye.

2nd. He doesnt need possession. If both teams play attacking, which team will win? Its only normal to say that the 30q team wins. I say go into defensive and counter attack, going into attacking will only expose his back and combined with his slower dmr dml, I see a near goal for every counter attack his opponent gets.

3rd. Playing your players out of position doesnt affect their rating if played for once or twice, but you get a 5% possession penalty for each out-position player. Honestly do you want him to lose that precious 5% penalty from what little he got?

Sorry but from your suggestions i might even suspect that you are his opponent....

I suggest 4-1-3n-2 with defensive counterattack long passing, blue arrows on dc and dmc.

Im facing a same boss formation tomorrow so id like to see what other opinions people have.

I've noticed recently that 4-3N-3 tends to do well against 4-5-1 V, Was playing a similar quality team on the 35T league recently and it was 0-0 at HT when I was playing 4-1-3W-2 and suddenly switched to 4-3N-3 and ended up winning 4-1. So maybe 4-3N-3 is definately worth a try, You 2 guys in that situation (SoMBrA and Zabanya) should look at the Semi-Final in a way they have absolutely nothing to lose because you are likely to lose the Semi-Final anyways but just go in and give it your "best shot".

Your 4-3N-3 orders would be long balls through the middle.

I take your advice Zabanya, but when i played against a stronger team with 4-5-1 V, i played 3-2-3-2 and it worked well.


Im only lvl 6, so of course my advices are pretty "noobie" against yours.

But thats how i played. Im not his opponent, but i see what youre trying to tell me through that statement. :D I do not have that much inside knowledge (like 5% possesion lost for out of position players) but the "little" ones like me are here to learn and increase our skill. We will never learn if we hide in this forum without doing some mistakes. You'll only learn through mistakes. maybe i should read up a little bit before giving advices for MUCH STRONGER opponents.

But atleast i TRIED to help him, you should give me a credit for that, nevertheless its a good help or not.

Hello everybody!
I'm here to update with result and impressions!

I lost the match 1-3 but I'm very happy with the result and how game developed...

Attachment 9923

I played 4-3-3

After first half game was 0-0 and not a single chance to score for the other team.

Second half he managed to score 3 goals before I could get to score mine
I also missed 1 good chance to score a 2nd goal!

I bought MC today before and ended up being my best player :)

Probaby I should have played 3 ST instead of 2 ST and 1 AMC as ST (he is my best player so I had to throw him into the field :P)

Thanks July, Kommando and everybody else that posted here :)

Should I try something different for away game? :)

Probably a better goalkeeper was needed too! :)

Well sorry Kommando i never meant that way. I myself am still learning. I might be in a bad mood yesterday, forgive me for that. Im still in level 3, lol.

July Fourth: I take your advice but what about the orders? The match is not a must win for me because Im currently 2 points up from my opponent but I needed at least a draw. What orders should I go with? Thanks.

Note: I have slightly better wings than st but the difference in not really big.
Note 2: Stupid Nordeus injured 3 of my defenders yesterday, leaving me with 4 4-stars and 2 barely 3 stars, thus the bad mood.

No Problem dude, everyone can have a bad day.

But i see it by myself now that my suggestions were pretty bad ^^

BTW i lost my semi final CL match 4:0 yesterday with the same system i recommended him here.. :D

So i saw it first hand it was not that good i thought it was :D

I won my boss match! I racked up the money bonus and used 4-3n-2w-1 because he changed to 3-5-2 v but at the last minute he changed to 3n-1-3w-1-2. What an exciting match i had.

11' I put in my dmc and changed the formation to 4-5-1 v to counter his formation
28' An assist from my aml went for a goal from my amr
30' I changed my orders to defensive
34' My opponent took out his amc and put in an st to make his formation 3n-1-3w-3
39' My opponent's st assisted his other st to draw 1:1
40' I put my dmc down to a dc (since he is good at both positions) and changed my orders to normal
50' My amr scored a corner from my aml
72' My striker got past his defenders and scored
81' My opponent changed his formation to 3n-1-0-3w-3
81' I replaced my st with a new one and changed orders to defensive counterattack
88' My amr found a counterattack and blasted home a goal

Total score: 4:1----- And Im up for the league title.

Very nice Zabanya!

Today I have my away game (I lost 1-3 first game!)

I think I will try a 4-3-1-2 Formation this time instead of 4-3-3 since my AMC is the best player I have...

I will play counter-attack + long ball because If I had a team that good I would probably end up playing attacking.... I will go with normal and full pitch but without hard tackling because I'm afraid he will score lots of goals with free kick specialists

you should try 3W43 or 3W412 with long ball, you need goals

Thanks for the tips.
I'm worried that If I play with 3 defenders he will score very easy but it's worth to give a try, I have nothing to lose :)

I will see after first half how things go.

His team is way too strong! :)

Update!

Lost again but this time was 2-1 and 2nd goal was at 85' so I'm very happy.
4-3-3 does work against 4-5-1v

Probably against an same level team score would be different! :)

Time to think about next season!

yes 4-3-3 is a counter to 4-5V-1, several times I got hammerd by this formation ..
