As I've replied in another thread, I'd like to know why and how a formation can be deemed illegal?

The formation a team manager chooses to play should be deemed appropriate! How can it be deemed inappropriate by anyone other than then manager?

Good post. There are no illegal formations in real life.

==================================================
Based on the known facts, here are my Hypothetical formation rules:

Requirements:

• Goalkeeper
• Some combination of 3 DBs/FBs (3 players anywhere in the back row )
• At least 1, but no more than 2, players on EACH outside flank. {the D(L/R), DM(L/R), M(L/R), AM(L/R) slots}
• at least 1 MC (DMC doesn't qualify)
• at least 1 Striker

What I concluded
First line(row,slot): At least Goalkeeper
Second line(row,slot):At least 3 defenders
At least 4 players on opponent side
Maybe At least
Third line(row,slot): No players required Maybe
Fourth line(row,slot): Maybe At least one player Midfielder
Fifth line(row,slot): No players required Maybe
Six line(row,slot): At least one Striker maybe

Only if a goalie is in position of an outfield player, formation doesn't matter...
