Table of Counter Formations - What to use?

[Francesko901]

Thank for your suggestion sir

Not at all But please still have in mind that these rules are not:

a) dogmas - it is just what I learned by 8 months of constant playing

b) 100% sure way to success - by following these rules I beat yesterday stronger opponent
(average skill of my players on the pitch was like 65, his 73),
but today I have made only tie with much weaker opponent (may average 65, his 54),
so T11 IS ONLY GAME BASED ON STOCHASTIC PROCESS, it means you could shape or influence randomness (at least little bit) which is inherently part of this game, but you could not rule results; following mine or others rules just give you improved chance to win, but never NEVER certainty...;

sometimes it leads to surprising and perversive results: last season I played in very balanced league - difference between the best and the worst average skill was around 6 or 7; 10 out of 14 managers were very closely to average skill 60;

I had not the best average, I was 2 points from the best but even so I won the season;
but scarring was the order of players at the end of the season was very similar to order by the average skill (with exception of me - may be because of luck, may be because of careful managing): it is obvious - if you play enough matches (and 26 is start of "enough") even small differences influence your results, and the competitive environment (the strength of almost all teams was almost same) led us not to underestimate our opponents;

what was surprising? structure of my results - I won or tied with teams, let us say, from 2nd to 5th place, I won with teams from the middle of the final results, but all my loses were from matches with teams that ended at the bottom of the table, I also tied such teams, so, despite of I usually won with them, these teams from the bottom were the main source of losing points
(I lost points with them usually at the start of the season when I was fully concentrated, have no idea about their final standing, and so I hope I did not underestimated them).
