Now I need some advice of my own - I'm playing a much stronger team in cup tomorrow. I beat them 3-1 at home by playing defensive, hard tackling and counter attack, but he has changed his formation since then.
What is the best formation to play defensive counter attacking vs 4-2-2-2 Hexagon? The suggested formations are 3N-1-4-2, 4-4-2 Classic, 4-5-1 V-Style. Could I play 4-1-4-1? It's similar to 4-4-2 but swaps a ST for a DMC.
Also, I've read that playing counter attack is bad vs a team with AM in, is this true? Thanks!
