[Dean Bryan]

Hi you had a couple of formation lists but they've been deleted due to trolls I found these very useful is there any chance you can post them again or maybe email me them many thanks

[xKuRi0s]

Hi there!

Tonight I play the second leg Champions on my home. On first leg I lost 2-1 against a worst team than mine who plays 5-3W-1-1.

I couldn't watch the game and I played 3-1-4-2. I was thinking with an attacking formation like 3DC-1DM-3W-1AMC-2ST down both flanks, pressing whole pitch, mixed passing, zonal marking, no counter, no offside trap.

Any good ideas on how to beat this guy??? I'm level 41 and his team is level 34.

Thanks in advance

Seems even longer than the list on the previous page.

I have an opponent who is playing with the following formation:

4-1(DMC)-2(ML/MR)-2(AMC)-1

I cannot find his formation in the table, but I do see something similar:

5-2ML/MR-2AMC-1 (only difference is 5 at the back instead of 4+DMC). The table lists 4-2-2-2 Hexagon as a good counter formation, do you guys think I could also use it for the initial formation mentioned above?
