    So I've made a formation, had 20% possesion because it's illegal (didnt know there are illegal formations at all back then), checked the forum, fixed the prob, everything is okay now.

    I actually won that game, but I was stunned by the possesion, so I set up a friendly match and had the same possesion (understandable 20-80) and lost to a guy, that I won 2 days before that without a problem.

    But my question is, that formation I used, it's a well known formation in real-life football (I was told it's called the MW formation), why is it illegal in the game? I understand its because of only 2 players in the last line but still, it's a good formation that shouldn't be illegal.
    Please notice that DML, DMC and DMR are playing defensively, too.

    3. Using an Illegal formation results in 20% possession. Yes, you might still win.
    4. The above "rules" have been TESTED and confirmed many times. They are accurate to the best of my knowledge.
    5. Please provide evidence (in-game screenshots) if you believe the findings above are wrong. "That's not true" because "I used ...." or "I played against ..." comments will be ignored without supporting evidence (screenshots).
    6. Post-match results are inconclusive for various reasons. If a formation appears to be legal, but shows a 20% possession in post-match results (one you didn't watch), first check the GK in the game - if that is his natural position, and you find no other reason for the possession penalty, test the formation yourself. If it IS illegal, make a screenshot and post here please.
