Is 4-2-1-3 best formation this season?

[Qambu Yaasi]

In essence most top teams use 1 striker & 1 no 10 (Man Utd, Man City) - conveniently referred as 4-4-2, in T11 this is probably 4-4-1-1 or 4-5-1.

or 1 striker and 2 very advanced wingers (Portugal, Arsenal, Bayern Munich) - conveniently referred as 4-3-3. In t11 this is probably a 4-3-2W-1

or just have one striker (Pass the ball to Messi)

The only time I've seen any team use 3 out and out strikers is Man Utd vs Tottenham after they went 3-0 down at HT and CR7 (converted), WR & Tevez were all camped in the last 3rd....

In T11, the use of seemingly wingless 4-2-1-3 is probably the type of formation deployed by Arsenal this season. And the wingers are basically the two outer strikers and DR/DL.

Well that's just me trying to rationalise T11 formations. Anyway, there is no Super formation, just Super players & quality of opponents faced.

I've seen 4-3W1-2 dominate leagues, 5-3-2, 4-4-1-1...different leagues have different "Super" formation. It all clicks if you happen to get the right players.

I probably would've dominated my league with 4-4-2 hexagon but was overwhelmed by my rival who mirrored my 4-4-2 hexagon midway in the season and now leads my league. Lost to him when I needed a win.

Yes, exactly this is what I meant. When teams have 4-3-3 formations, the farthest 3 are...
«Left Winger - Striker - Right Winger»
...never 3 goal hangers, because in Top11 it doesn't matter what position of those 3 possible in the box you place strikers in, they are hangers. It's like stowing Messi+Lewandowski+Torres in the box and showering balls to rebound on their heads and get in... lol.

Maybe the game needs 2 new positions for winger-strikers to add a minimal touch of reality? because teams winning with 3ST makes no sense at all.

Then again why am I debating Top11 football, when one of the best formations has been this...
