How to Win Against Any Formation?

[jacek1985a1]

3-4-1-2 and I have won 4 : 3 - why my players do cross pass during corners than high ball ? When it is a high ball I always made goals

If your team is 11 players that are 5* then most standard formations should be able to beat this piece of ****.

I normally do not change formation during the game unless my opponent does so.
I have been playing around a little this season in the cups and league against easier opponents, tonight I changed formation three times but quality remained more or less the same, somewhere around 46 v 32.
Possession never changed more then 1% which in its self you cannot put down to the formations, as play does fluctuate.
I'm pretty certain now that what you start off with is pretty much what you will have at the end, as long as 11 players stay on the pitch and nothing stupid is done like switching to an illegal formation.

As others have also mentioned, the way the game engine runs anything is possible in the second half.

Thanks for adding weight to what gkassimis said I agree and won't mess around so much in one game in future ...

But what about the important question, how to beat this formation?

4-1-3W-1-1

----------ST
---------AMC
ML-------MC-------MR
---------DMC
DL----DC----DC----DR

It's not an easy one to crack, same with 3-1-4-1-1
A lot will depend on your own players available.
First off how do you match up against his ST and AMC if you have the upper hand then things get a little easier as you can block the AMC and play 3 wide at the back.
From there take his MF out man for man, that leaves you three to attack him with, as he has a DMC you need AMR/AML and a striker to finish the job.
He is probably playing with Focus mixed so I'd put down arrows on my MR/ML and play Mentality Normal, Focus Both flanks, with short passing and zonal marking no offside and no force counter.
If those orders are not working, depending on how he is creating chances then tweak them to Defensive.
3 wide is not the best to go attacking with as you need the off side trap on, which is risky to say the least.
Hope this helps, it's the way I'd play him in any case.
