is 4-1-2-1-2 ND unbeatable

[Mikedunga]

i know this is a late reply, but actually the best counter for the 4-1-2-1-2 nd is the 4-1-3n-2. used with mixed, mixed, attacking, hard/normal tackling, zonal, own half and no counter/no offside. red arrows on middle MC and both STs

My friend started loosing all his games playing that formation (after originaly pwn'ing)...

Worst case for him was against this formation:

DC DC DC
DMC
MR MC MC MC MR

ST

I beat him comfortably myself with it in a friendly (and he have much stronger sqaud), used passing over flanks, defensive, counter attack, rest normal and no offside... He had little to no flank attack, so I just shut down the central areas complettely and counter attacked his exposed flanks myself.
