    What should be played against this comp?
    there u go, only difference is your pal is using AMC-AMC instead of playing them wide.

    4-3-2-1


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

    An excellent attacking formation and strong in wing attack..

    Can be countered by:

    3-2-3-2:

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

    A logical choice formation to use against the 4-3-2-1.. 3 DC to block 1 lone striker, a DML and DMR to block attacks from the flanks coming from the AML and AMR, 3 midfield to keep control and 2 strikers to go for goal.

    3-2-2-2-1:

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

    Fight fire with fire, 3 DC again to block a lone striker.. DML and DMR to block the AML's and AMR's which can feed passes up your own AMLs and AMRs to take advantage of the lack of wing defence and one lone striker to go between the 2DC..

    Is this like 4-4-2?

    ------ST--ST-----
    ------------------
    ----MC-MC-MC-ML
    ------------------
    DL---DC--DC---DR
    --------GK--------

    Should I use 4-5-1 V Style to win?

    Thanks for your help

    The 3-2-2-2-1 formation in the post above yours will work fine.

    Edit sorry i misread the post above yours that's 3-2-3-2
    Counter the formation with 3-2-2-2-1
    But like this.

    .......... .DC--↑DC↑--DC
    DML-----------------------DMR
    ------- ----MC-----MC
    ↓AML↓--------------------↓AMR↓
    ----------------ST

    Against 4-4-2 which he basically is but with out the MR, I'd play this with, Normal, Both Flanks, Own half, Normal, Mixed passing Zonal, No O/S and counter yes.

    Or if you want to take him apart.
    Attacking, Both Flanks, Whole Pitch, Normal, Short passing , Zonal, O/S yes No counter

    Best used with normal mentality, down both flanks, short passing, zonal marking with normal tackling. No counterattack and no offside trap.

    ------gk------
    dl----dc----dr
    -----dmc----
    --mc---mc--
    aml------amr
    ----fw--fw----

    In the first leg I tried this formation:

    ------gk-----
    dl--dc--dc--dr
    --dmc--dmc--
    ------mc------
    aml--------amr
    ------fw--------

    Hard defending, force counter, pressing own half, long passing, zonal, attack on wings, red arrows on my DMCs and a blue arrow on my MC.

    But now I need to win so I'm thinking about trying this:

    ------gk-----
    dl----dc----dr
    dml-------dmr
    ----mc-mc----
    aml-------amr
    ------fw-------

    Defending, force counter, pressing whole pitch, long passing, zonal, attack on left wing (his DR is really bad) red arrows on my DMs, AMs and blue arrows on my MCs.

    What do you think, is this a good approach or should I try something else?
    this will be better
    ----------------ST---------------
    AML------------------------AMR
    -----------MC-----MC-----------
    DML------------------------DMR
    ----DC(UP)DC(DOWN)DC(UP)-
    normal mentality ... down both flanks ... own half ... mixed passing ... counter attack ... no offside trap.

    So I'm new here (hello everybody here ) and I am playing my very first season on Top Eleven. So far, it is going really well, I have a W9-D1-L0 record and I am leading the League. This evening, I am going to play at home versus the current second placed team, and he is using a weird formation but had success in his last games. He is playing:

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

    Throughout all previous games, I have always played the following formation

    ------ST------
    AML-------AMR
    ---MCMCMC---
    --------------
    DL-DC---DC-DL

    and I had very few problems against most teams. But against his formation, I am not sure if this formation is too offensive. I am considering to switch the center MC with a center DMC.

    My current team strength is 15,6, his is around 15,0 (can't access it currently due to server maintenance). Any advice how to play his weird formation? Is my formation good enough to win or should I totally change it?

    Thanks for help

    I don't have any DML / R can I use DL / R with up arrows to counter this formation?

    Not really the arrows only work in possession.
    Your V is probably the best option, 4-3MC-2-1 is a strong attacking formation that should beat that also or drop one Am and go with two strikers, 4-3-1-2
