442 is the most balanced game in this game, not to defensive, not to atacking.
If you think in this firmation and in ilegal formations, you will see that even If one of our players is sent off, the formation will Never be a ilegal formation, no matter witch position that player plays.
This does not happen with any othe formation.

This game is built in terms of legal and ilegal formation, thats Why the 442 is overpowered.

There isen't the perfect formation, but for me those hat works better is 3412 but dosent have 100% victory only gives you more possession and more shots.
