as mentioned at 1st page
4-2-2-2

DL--DC-DC--DR
----MC-MC----
AML--------AMR
------ST--ST----
Some people however may change the MC-MC to a DMC-DMC, don't worry too much about this as it will not effect the formations provided and would enhance your ball possession.

Effective formation to counter the 4-2-2-2 would be the 3-2-2-2-1:
Tested in great match and it work well.

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

Flat Formation, but possible add down arrows on DML and DMR to boost defence if required.
Short or mixed passing, down both flanks, with fast defenders use offside trap, pressing whole pitch in attacking mentality OR
normal or defensive mentality, pressing own half with force counter and mixed passing.

4-5-1V Motivated

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

The 4-5-1V Style Motivated is also another option to use against the 4-2-2-2 formation.

Hey man,
What about this formation in the field: 3-2-3-2
--ST-ST--
-MR-MC-ML
-DMC-DMC-
-DR-DC-DL-
I Think this formation do use the hole pitch with the wings. And you could replace the MC with an AMC.
Do you think its a good formation?

It's good and you can replace the MC with an AMC ... try the 2 formation and see which will be better with your players .. but the 2 are good

I have 2 upcoming matches against 2 formations I have never played against before.

No 1:
DL---DC---DR
-----DMC------
--MC-MC-MC--
--ST-ST-ST---

No 2:
DL---DC---DR
-----DMC-----
ML-MC-MC-MR
----ST--ST----

Both teams quality are about the same as mine, but I am playing away.
Appreciate any advice! Thanks!

Hello Adel Gamal

Yesterday you said to me that 4-3-2-1 isn't a good formation to play regularly, why? I never lost with it

Hello Adel Gamal

Yesterday you said to me that 4-3-2-1 isn't a good formation to play regularly, why? I never lost with it

I only meant don't use it against 3-2-3-2 ever not don't play with it at any time

this formation can't hold/stand against 3 2 3 2 it's a risk.
