Some new counters to add to the thread.

4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond can counter the 3N-2DML/DMR-3N-2 formation
3W-3N-2(AML/AMR)-2 can counter the 4-5-1 v formation

what order do u use against 4-5-1V??

Same as always, attacking mentality, passing down the flanks, own half pressing, normal tackling, zonal marking, mixed passing, counter attack, no offside trap. Red arrows on AML/AMR/ST

3W-3N-2(AML/AMR)-2 can counter the 4-5-1 v formation

Added, I've also added the attacking 4-1-2-3 that we also believe counters the 4-5-1 V.

Focusing anything but flanks in any V-style formation is always a losing plan. Even if he has a strong DL & DR your better off sticking with the flanks if you use a v-formation. A very effective counter to 4-4-2 flat is 4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamons: focus through the middle. force counter-attack tactics normally work well (but not always).
