Champions Leguea match against 4-3-2-1

[Estanius]

Hello guys

So I have to play against a team with 4-3-2-1 formation, anyone can advice how to counter it ? I normally play 4-5-1 V will this help ? Or is there a better one ? And what menatlity and such


Thank you

He is using the flanks in a very attack minded formation, I think you need to at the very least cover the flanks!, he also has a good solid back four so its going to be difficult to break through!, you may need to try short passing through the middle!,you should play four at the back as well to slow his forward line down aswell!, I would play two upfront so you yourself have a good threat!, try a standard
4-4-2 or 4-3-1-2,(DL,DC,DC,DR,ML,MC,MR,AMC, ST,ST) or 4-1-3-2(DL,DC,DC,DR,DMC,ML,MC,MR,ST,ST).
Zonal marking, hard tackling, press own half, mixed passing and long ball, play offsides, do not force counter attacks .
