My strongest team would be 4-5-1V style, and this is recommended vs 4-2-2-2 hexagon, so that's alright.

What is the best use of arrows and orders? It says I should use arrows on DR, DL and DMC, is this best or too risky?

Should I attack down the flanks? I'm sure this is what he will be doing. I'm thinking of using normal mentality, normal tackling, down both flanks, mixed passing (Or would short be better?), and zonal marking. I won't use offside trap, but not sure if I should use counter attack?

Thanks.
I believe 4-5-1 V can counter the hexagon. I suggest you start off defensive with counter attack then move to normal and attacking depending on the score. As 4-5-1 V is a defensive and attacking formation, you can decide what to use. But generally, start off with defensive counter, no arrows..Then if you are losing then attacking with arrows.
