How to Win Against Any Formation?

[HowIndyAyer]

What is the best way to beat a 4-1-4-1 formation ? Thanks!

hmm ... i almost lost against a 4-3-3 wide, while playing the 4-1-4-1
even though my Team got a Strenght of 42 and his of 36 ... so maybe u should try the

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

not exactly sure about the tactics
maybe someone more expirienced can tell you

Does anybody have more on this ? Like tactics and so on ? And is this really the best against 4-1-4-1 ? I really need to win this one to take back my first place in the competition

DC-DC-DC

ST

Short passing, through the flanks, attacking mentality, zonal marking,
pressing whole pitch with offside trap.
OR
