How to beat 3-1-4-2?

---ST-ST---
ML-MC-MC-MR
----DMC----
--DC-DC-DC--

Countered by:

4-5-1V Style

Orders: defensive mentality, long passing, through the flanks, pressing own half,
force counterattack, zonal marking.

4-5-1 V Style Motivated

DL(Up)-DC-DC-DR(Up)
DMC
MC-MC
AML(Up)-AMR(Up)
ST

Orders: normal mentality, mixed passing, through the flanks, rest remains same.

tomorrow to me to play with this strange team gk-dl-dc-dr-dmc-ml-mc-mr-amc-st-st

-------------ST---------------
AML---------------------AMR
---------MC-------MC---------
-------------DMC (UP)---------
DL (UP)----DC--DC----DR (UP

Motivated DL and DR's block movement from the opponents ML and MR's while also feeding passes to your AML and AMR. The 2 MC and motivated DMC block any centre movement.

Orders: defensive mentality, long passing, through the flanks, pressing own half,
force counterattack, zonal marking.

4-5-1 V Style Motivated

DL(Up)-DC-DC-DR(Up)
DMC
MC-MC
AML(Up)-AMR(Up)

how to beat a 3 - 3 - 3 - 1 ?

-----ST-----
AML--AMC-AMR
DML-DMC-DMR-
--DC-DC-DC--
----GK------

thought about the "Narrow Diamond" with an AMR(UP)

----ST---ST----
-------------AMR(Up)
----MC---MC---
-----DMC-----
DL--DC--DC--DR <----- all blue arrows? or reds to DL/DR?
------GK----

you ca use 4 4 2 with normal mentality and short passing ... and use down both flanks ... no counter attack .. no offside trap ... red arrows at DR/L MR/L and good luck

hi all , after some help with a team playing this formation, its an away game and i have stronger team

dl dc dc dc dr
dmc
mc ml
amc
st

As July Fourth said

I would use 4-2-2-2, you should be looking to attack most of the game since they play with 5 at the back

----ST---ST-----
AML---------AMR
----MC---MC----
-----------------
DL--DC---DC--DR
-------GK--------

or use 4 5 1 v stile and it's quite like it

Hello, I am struggling against unusual formation I can't get much info about. This is something like 4-2-2-1-1.
Looks like:
= = ST = =
= = AMC = =
= MC = MC =
DML = = = DMR
DL DC = DC DR

Please tell me how this formation works best so I can understand it and how to counter it best.

= ST = ST =
= AMC = AMC =
ML = = = MR
= = DMC = =
= DC DC DC =

Could anybody help me by telling what my best options against this formation are ?

Thanks !

Whilst it is an unusual formation it's difficult to come up with a counter without knowing his players roles.
Having a DML/DMR sat right in front of the DL/DR is a strange one unless they have ML/MR position also, which would then suggest he is playing defensive and Counter attack with red arrows on the DM players.
Post a screen shot of his squad, that will also tell us if this is his preferred formation or the one with his best players in their correct positions.

3-1-4-1-1 may work with more info.

Well Id go:

-------DC---DC---DC
------DMC-------DMC
MR----------------------ML
------AMC-------AMC
-------------ST

It's not an easy one to counter and gain a good advantage, just like the one above, more info would help. Screen shots! your squad and his.

DC-DC-DC
DML(UP)-DMR(UP) (If using DL/DR as DML/DMR, remove the red arrows)
MC-MC
AML-AMR (Red arrows if AML/AMR also play as strikers and you want some extra punch)
ST

Short passing, through the flanks, attacking mentality, zonal marking,
pressing whole pitch with offside trap.
OR
Own Half, counter attack, defensive, mixed passing

other formations :
3-1-4-2 and 3-1-4-1-1 using normal mentality, zonal marking, own half, short passing, normal tackling, no counterattack and no offside trap.

thx but too late lost with 2-1 , next time i will try this thx
