he is using a 4-5-1 flat formation. i seen on the 1st page to use a 3-5-2 against this.
but i only got 1 strong st, could i use 3-5-1-1 against him instead? and advice on the arrows pls.

and also his dl, and ml has only 2 stars, his MC the one in the direct center has 3 stars. the rest has 4-5 stars.
should i use this to my advantage?

this is the quality of my players, dun have to worry about condition and morale because all are in good condition and i got enough morale boosters:
MC- 20
MC - 24(free kick specialist)
MC - 27
MC/AMC - 29(defensive wall)
ML/AM - 23
AMC/AMR - 27
MR - 25(playmaker)
DML/DMC - 19
ST - 27 (corner specialist)
ST - 15(41/50 for 1 on 1 scorer) <- this is the problem because is he still quite weak

and also i got some injured players that are better that i didnt list.

so against this guy how should i make full use of my team?

dc--dc--dc
ml--mc--mc--mc--mr
-------amc-----
-------st-------? or should i change my amc to amr and st to the right, passing to right flanks because he has 2star ml and dl??

meaning:
dc--dc--dc
ml--mc--mc--mc--mr(up)
-----------------amr(up)
-----------------st?(up)
normal mentality
focus right flank passing
own half
normal tackling
mixed passing
zonal marking
NO offside and counter

the best formation to beat him is 3-2-2-2-1 but don't put any player out of his position if you wanted to get positive result so let's start :

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)-

but with the your current players you have, you can use
dc--dc--dc
(UP)ml--mc--mc--mc--mr(up)
-------amc(UP)-----
-------st-------

No counter attack .. no offside trap ... down both flanks .. long pass.

and in the second half make the passing short and focus pass mixed and i hope you can win
