    Cool 4-4-2 formation this season

    Have noticed my most succesful formation this season has been classic 4-4-2. This coupled with hard tackling and mixed passing style has worked wonders.Anyone else noticed a similar thing this season-wondering if 4-4-2 is now the 'in thing' on T11.

    Yeah 4-4-2 is pretty strong this season. I think the dev team must have given this formation higher probability to win. I went against two weaker teams than mine in semi-finals of both the Cup and CL, I had very difficult wins.

    Yeah i know what you mean about 4-4-2 and the weaker team thing. Just played a league match at home against a 4-4-2 team. I started out with a 3N-4-1-2 side.He is 66 rated to my 79.5 and i had extra 15% pocession with supporters and crowd....was hoping to score a hat full of goals.Well that didnt happen-lol!
    It was 0-0 well into 2nd half and it wasnt until i matched his formation with my own 4-4-2 after 65 mins that i managed to scrape a goal and win 1-0.
    On the plus side....i got through to cup final tonight winning 4-0 away from home after being 2-1 down in first leg. I replicated his formation (3N-5-2) which i did not do in first leg.......I am also finding this season that if you copy a non 4-4-2 playing sides formation the stronger side in terms of quality points wins....hmmm what to play in cup final , up against a 3N-1-4-2 side only a couple of quality points lower than me.......4-4-2 it is then.......lol

    Against 4-4-2 Classic, use 4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond. Orders are as follow

    Mentality: Attacking
    Focus passing: Through the middle
    Pressure: Own half
    Tackling: Normal
    Passing: Short passes
    Defense: Zonal defense
    No OT, no Counter
    Beat my opponent in CL Final with a higher rating with 2-0. I had one a player (MR) off position (MC)
