So we have Played a few games now. Does anyone has a solution allready for the overpowered 4-4-2. The only counter formation i use is 4-4-2. With the other formations i lose. I allready have tried the 4-5-1 flat with arrows. Not working.

I have seen People win from 4-4-2 aswell but it always has to do with red cards or injuries.Quote:

Even if i have 10 points more do win... Till i switch to 4-4-2 and the i win 3-1/ 4-1
with a same Q opponent i used 3-1-4-2, 3-5-2 V and ND and all three gave me 60% possession and pressure over them.
Is this before or after the new game engine? Before the New game engine i won the most vs 4-4-2, but now i can have more Ball possession but still losing the matchQuote:

442 strikes again 50 v 40 cl match, home with 13% 3n 2w 3 2 lost 2-1 , used everyting no joy might but a right winger haha
I had a cup rematch 3 days ago against a 4-4-2 of similar quality. I had lost 2-4 at first leg using Morgan O'Bree's 4-5-1 variant (I'm not saying it doesn't work. It just didn't work for me). In the second match I used the formation below with normal ment, mixed passes, mixed focus, no counter no offside. No arrows.
Attachment 11791
I scored at 34' and 84' and one of my opponent's STs suffered an injury at 47'. I won but was disqualified according to away goals rule ( I'm not saying this formation works. It just worked for me during that match)
I have the same problem... i´m playing the cup rematch at home against 4-4-2 today and need to score two more goals than he does.
Right now i´m thinking to use 4-1-2-1-2 or 3w-5-2.... Other ideas are welcome ;-)
well cl return match 442 , used 3 2w 2 2w 1 no arrows , normal, mixed, zonal and won 3-1 away (lost 2-1 at home) with 3-2w-3-2 who knows
diamond is a problem u got less midfiled
Than 3w-5-2?
I have a game in about 30 minutes. Im going to use 3-2w-2n-2w-1. He is 64,5 points and im 66,6 (the devil lol) i play a away match dont know if he watching His matches. Ill tell the resultQuote:

I started with 3n-2w-2n-2w-1 i had like 56% Ball position and 8 shots on goal he had 7 shots on goal. So i change my team in minute 60 in a 4-4-2 formation (sorry didnt had the balls to finish is with 3-2-2-2-1.) and i scored 2 goals and won the match 0-2. Ill try is vs a weaker team again.
In the fist match (at his stadium) i played like him 4-4-2. I had more ball possession 55to45 but i had just 13 shots and he 22 (on target 12 for him 3 for me).
I think my orders been first half: (he scored his two goals in the first half)
normal
flanks
own half
hard
mixed
zonal
no offside no counter
(red arrows on ML/MR)
second half:
offensive
flanks
hole pitch
hard
mixed
zonal
no offside no counter
(red arrows on ML/MR)
I tried a lot of different formations and orders ( including those discussed here) to win against 4 - 4 - 2 classic but still lost. so imo, only 4 - 4 -2 can beat 4 - 4 -2.
When a formation is overpowered, it will force all players to use it. and as a result everything will go to money you put on the game :)
hope that nordeus will make a game engine update so top eleven wont get boring with " 4 - 4 - 2, 4 - 4 -2 Everywhere"
