I have seen 4-2N-1-3 quite often and i cant find it on the first post.

It's 4-3N-3 but with the middle MC pushed up to AMC.

As far as counters, 4-5-1 v worked for me.

lol... funny enough I played against that formation you suggested yesterday and both 4-5-1 V-style worked well as your 4-3N-2W-1 formation you like to use. I think its easy to counter really, just play with lots of midfielders to dominate.

Some minutes ago I had a league match vs. a very defensive formation, 5-1-1-1-2.
I played 3-1-4-2, attacking mentality over the wing, first mixed passing, later short.
It ended 1-0 for me, but it was very close.

Does anyone have a better idea how to face such a park the bus and counter formation?

4-5-1 Flat

3-5-2 Flat, 3-5-2 V-Style
I will play today against 4-5-1 Flat-but no MR, he using AMR.
I wonder to counter him I should have 3dc central or DL-DC-DR.

ok thanks for answer,I played dl-dc-dr and win3:0

[Kyroshill]

4-3W-1-2 - played against this VERY effectively with 4-5-1 V in a big match yesterday...
