4-4-2 classic overpowered?

[sdw]

Dont u understand that 4-5-1 V style is not a counter-formation of 4-4-2 classic anymore.It doesn't matter what orders or arrows you use.It's done.
In my oppinion : 4-5-1 V style was my favourite formation at all above 20 seasons.From few seasons I dont use this crap of formation cuz the new game engine which sux by the way.

Agreed. It's kinda useless with the new game engine.

I was not talking V-style .. just 4-5-1 flat, with some blue and red arrow motivation. It works perfectly

Well, I wouldn't say "perfectly"..... As you suggested I used reds on ml/mr/dl/dr and blue on mcs. defensive down flanks short passing with counter attacks.
At 0-3 I switched to 3W-3N-2(aml/amr)-2 with normal mentality mixed passes mixed focus no counter.

Just like real life football ha? Unexpected defeat lol
Maybe it was too soon to say it works perfectly.

I am not sure why 3W-3N-2(aml/amr)-2 would work and my 4-5-1 flat variant wouldnt..

Well to my experience, Aml/Amr seem to be more active when attacking than motivated ml/mr. Perhaps arrows work a bit differently that we think.

Anyway, I think I'll go with 3n-4-1-2 through middle for the second leg and see how it will go.
