Secrets of 4-4-2 classic!

[Belgji]

Bad News!!!
I lost the 2nd place team with using 4-3-2aml/r-1, at Home.
I m present, he is not! And one of my fri is cheering my team.
My team Q is 2.7 better than his. Of course my team has the best Q in my league.
I hav been hoping to celebrates the Christmas with my players & fans. But they gave me vry bad result.

Why I am keep losing??????????? [ 4w, 1d, 3l ]
My team Q is the highest in my league.
I am always present every single match.
I always set a Legal formation with my best 11 and they are all superb moral & fitness.
My rivals never attend the match against me.
Just tell me WHY???
WHY?????
WHY?????
WHYYY?????

I have played 4-4-2 classic 7 times so far this season out of 11 games , and won every game. My opponents have varied in quality from -5 quality points below me to +7 quality points above me. In those games i have scored 24 goals and conceded only 1 .....my counter....'the butterfly'.........ideal solution if you look at it.........let you guys work out the orders.......and arrows .....if any

And ya, even 4-2-2-2 hexagon will not turn into an illegal formation if any pone player is sent off.
And every formation can turn into an illegal formation if ONE player is sent off,even 4-4-2 classic. That ONE player Is the Goalkeeper!!!!!!

my favourite counter for the 4-4-2 is also the 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly, what orders do you use for it and where do you put your arrows?

my orders are usually attacking, down both flanks, short, zonal, whole pitch/own half, hard tackling, no counter, no offside, red arrows on AML/R and ST.

Sure... Will update the results later... My match is in the afternoon. I use blue arrows down for both my DML & DMR as he is stronger in terms of players stats...

[Sng Kwang Peng]

As promise here's e result... I lose 0-2 guess this is either formation nt working or the gap difference is just too great to overcome...
