Use 4-5-1 V style atack from flanks mixed passing counter attack...

youll have better midfield while holding his amc back with your dmc and he has low wing coverage so youll attack better

Hello tomorrow i play against the first in my league and he is playing this Formation:
----ST---ST----
------AMC------
---MC-MC-MC---
----------------
-DL-DC---DC-DR-
-------GK-------
He is a little bit stronger then me but not so mutch. I dont have any idea for arrows of him.
Witch Formation shut i choose?

And at the same day i played in CL against this Formation:
-------ST-------
------AMC------
---MC-MC-MC---
------DMC------
-DL-DC---DC-DR-
-------GK-------
Do you have any idea? He wins the last CL Games like 3 -0 and 5 - 1. I think the opponent hasn't any DMC in his lineup. Witch Formation shut i choose?

Sorry for my English its not very god ! Thank you! Can someone give me a comprehensive Tip for the lineup. 3 - 4 - 3 ist not god for someone how plays with a AMC.

I think your close with 3-5-2? I think your looking at the 3-6-1 butterfly here, central defense is covered so we need attacking wingers.

-----ST-----
AML-----AMR
---MC-MC---
DML-----DMR
--DC-DC-DC--

DML/DMR block path of opponents AML/AMR.

Normal Mentality, Short Passing, Attack the Flanks, Zonal Marking, Counter Attack = Yes, Offside Trap = Yes.

I would actually go for the WM:

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

I believe his wide AMs will be just as covered, but this formation also covers the MC when he gets forward. Blue arrows on DMCs, red arrows on wide AMs.

@oggy, which side is stronger?

Thanks for the quick replies. But my game is on the 3rd of Feb ... ;-)

Due to lacking a dml I need to choose the 2nd formation .

My side is 0.3p stronger :-D

--------ST---------
AML------------AMR
----MC------MC-----
----DMC--------DMR
DL------DC--DC-----

If you're brave enough, try this asymmetrical formation, the DCs are to the right, DMC to the left, or even use MR and DMC instead of MC and DMR on the right side of the formation. I think July's formation is better as you'll be attacking down the flanks and DML and DMR will provide more support than DL and DR. You don't want to put blue arrows on that DMR, though, so maybe blue arrows on the right MC so you can put red on the DMR.

Can you help me with this one?

------ST-------
--MC--MC--MC
-DML--DMC--DMR
--DC--DC--DC

Thanks

thanks , any arrow ? and what tatics should i use ?

Adel - I think other Managers would like to see more tactics on other and unusual formations like 5-1-2-1-1 or 5-1-3-1 and so forth - Is it possible you could edit and update your thread. Wading through 118 pages of threads on this site to find what your looking for takes forever.

How do you beat 3w-5-2 v formation? My CL match tonight, I'm better by a few points. Its an away game.

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

I don't think that really matters if the 3 at the back are wide or not .

But what formation can counter it?

Handle it like a 4-5-1V, cause it's similar with 2 Strikers and 3 Defenders instead!.

4-5-1 V-style is one of the most versatile formations. It can easily become defensive or offensive with the change of a few arrows. A great jack of all trades, but it's lack of defensive wingers can be exploited.

When playing against 4-5-1 V, you need to protect your flanks and attack the opponent's. Forget about attacking the middle, it's that simple. Keep in mind that 4-5-1 V-style is most often played with counter-attacking orders, so you don't want to overdo your attacks. Use normal or defensive mentality and press your own half.

As always, when playing against a midfield formation, you need to have at least as many midfielders as the opponent.

Here's a few examples:

4-3-2-1

This is 4-5-1 V-style's brother. It takes advantage of not using a DMC who won't be blocking an nonexistent AMC and vice verse. This translates into a more powerful midfield to feed passes to the forward players.

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

Motivated 4-5-1 flat.

While an unmotivated 4-5-1 flat would probably succumb to a 4-5-1 V-style, you can take advantage of that and make the opponent underestimate you. He'll probably realize that his flanks are under constant attack after a few goals.

----------------ST------------------
-------------------------------------
ML(UP)--MC--MC--MC--MR(UP)
-------------------------------------
DL(UP)-----DC---DC-----DR(UP)

3-2-2-2-1

While you don't need more than 1 or 2 DC's against 4-5-1 V, you don't want to use an illegal formation. The extra DC acts as a sweeper, DML/DMR block the attacks from the flanks, and AML/AMR attack the soft flanks.

----------------ST---------------
AML------------------------AMR
-----------MC-----MC-----------
DML------------------------DMR
----DC(UP)DC(DOWN)DC(UP)-

against :

--ST--ST--ST--
---MC--MC--MR
DL-DC--DC--DR

can I play :

3-3-2-2
--------ST----ST-----
AML--------------AMR
----MC--MC--MC----
-----------------------
----DC--DC--DC----

ataking , left flank ?
or should I use another tactic?

It's your decision, further information on first page of this thread. But keep in mind playing with 3 Defs against 3 Strikers, you should dominate the midfield.

Without DMC I would choose the Butterfly if DML/R are available, otherwise 4-3N-2W-1 and Blue Arrows on Center MC.

If you mean 3 MCs then.. 3-5-2 against the 4-5-1 flat would be best used with long passing with zonal marking. Attacking tactics should be focused on long balls. This requires a forward with good pace and speed.

If against better opponent then play defensive mentality, through the flanks, hard tackling, zonal marking, mixed passing, no offside trap, with force counter attack.

nothing

pressing what style ?
