Table of Counter Formations - What to use?

[Berzelius]

Today, again:
i played in 4-1-4-1 against a 4-1-3W-2 formation
I know, i was connected, playing at home, my team was better and he had an illegal formation (DC instead of GK)
But i won 11-0...

Please I need some advice. How to make orders? For 4-5-1 V style
Thank you

Thanks to Factor X once again for helping us find a recommendation for 3W-2-3W-2.

Hi!..

I know this has been posted before, but there is about 54 pages here, and searching the forum I've not gotten a clearcut answer!
I'm facing a Cup match, against an inferior opponent.

He's playing flat 4-5-1
--------GK--------
-DL--DC--DC--DR
-ML--MC-MC-MC-MR
--------ST--------

Don't know he's strategy, but based on the last game (ended 0-2 with me away) he got the far most shots, inspite of me having 59 % possession.

I've been using a 3-5-2 V style
--------GK--------
--DL---DC----DR-
------DMC(DOWN)-------
-----MC---MC----
--AML(UP)-------AMR(UP)---
------ST---ST-----

It has beeen working so far, until this match. As said before, lost last match 0-2, and meeting him again home in the day after tomorrow. Could really use some advice as to counter that flat 4-5-1. I know it's either a 3-5-2 V or 3-5-2 flat (up the middle), but lacking MR and ML at the moment.

I have a avg. quality of 24, and he's got 21,6.
Doesn't make any sense he wins to me.

Best regards!
Christian

The 4-1-2n-1-2 narrow diamond is not countered by a 4-5-1 V formation. The narrow diamond easily stifles any attack from the flanks with its DL/DR & the St with 2 DCs, & the Mids with 2MCs. Then it overpowers the middle with 2 STs, an AMC and an attacking DMC. Counter attack tactics work really well in this situation against a 4-5-1 V.

down both flanks arrows on aml/r, everything else normal is the basics.

The counter for 4-1-2-3 is incorrect. I just played a friend (who happens to be in my league) using 4-1-4-1 to counter his 4-1-2-3 formation. I lost 2-0, I had 5% possesion bonus, I even added blue arrows to the DMC to make him help against my opponents 3 STs, and we are almost exactly the same average quality. Nothing worked.

4-4-2 classic counters the WM formation.

Added... Thanks... Think weve got most of the common ones covered now.
