4-4-2 classic overpowered?

[littledude072]

wow, a thread from 2 months ago, same 'feature'

i had a game against a 10Q weaker team using the 4-2-3-1
it was a draw 1-1. id usually do well with my formation even against stronger teams using 5 backs, but this guys backs are 1 stars (his strikers too), and yet they somehow foiled my formation. id also mention it was at his home, and a friend and i watched my team but they somehow got 55-45 possession

I always play 4-4-2 too and won all this games!

I have played 3 teams that used 4-4-2 on me. My cup opponent was bested 1-0 and 1-6, my league opponent topped me 2-1, and my Champions league opponent lost 3-0.

There is one very important rule in the new game engine.1 DMC+1 MC are better than 2 MC's.

Are you sure? Whence came this info?

In case you have much better strikers: Try 343 with blue arrows on both wide strikers and attacking throw middle.

In case you have much better MCs: 352 flat with red arrows on both wide MCs and attacking throw middle.

I usually use attacking throw middle when the opponent does not have DMC.

Always play a 4-3-3 situation but with some accurate adjustments To have rotating players. Keep it narrow, play midfield. Basically what you have to get is one of your strikers moves into a slight Amc position in defense. Mid Mc into a dmc position and one Dc going over the wing during attack (pref a dc/drc) this way you keep plenty defense against 2 strikers, you have enough power in midfield and enough scoring power in the front but one very important asset is the fact you shut down their wingers.

keep mixed passing. Counter and offside off, zonal marking, attack play, normal tackles, and pass through midfield.

The backs stay as is.
