    Hi guys,

    I've searched this forum (and the old one) for a formation to counter or at least to try to play well against a good 3-2-2-2-1 like the one below, but I didn't find any answers. So please, can anybody come with some ideas? Thanks in advance.

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



    Now, in my particular case, I think this team plays defensive+counter all the time (35%-50% possession) and his goals in the league are scored by many different players either from wings or from the centre, even by the defenders. Except for a few couple of games when scored 4 and 6 goals, this team scored about 1-2 goals per match and having a good defence seemed enough so far cause nobody defeat it yet.

    I think you can counter it with the one from the above post: 3-2-2-2-1. Or maybe a 4-1-4-1 with red arrows on dl/dr and dmc, down both flanks, defensive, counter on, no offside, own half pressing.

    That is exactly what you do not want to do, he is going to attack you, while you can hit him on the counter, he has plenty of cover with a flat back four. He could well have red arrows on the two MC's adding to the problem.
    IMO you need to push him back forcing his AM players to do some defending, which in turn releases pressure and allows you to do a bit more damage with your own players, he has no DM cover so this is where to exploit him.
    I would probably go with the butterfly against him, 3DC's covering his striker and the centre AMC, DML/DMR blocking his AML/AMR, your two MC's against his, leaving you with AML/AMR and a ST against his back four.

    Plenty of time to sort orders, while you go and do some checking on where his goals have come from, who's showing form in the cup, also try to see any formations he's lost to recently and by how much.
    Most important for the orders. speed of his striker and AM players against your DC's and DM players. and vice versa with your own, ST and AM players.

    Is there any way to counter a 3-2-3-2 while fitting in my best player C. Petersen who is the AMR/AMC?

    I am aware that 3-2-3-2 does counter a 4-3-2-1 (which I play) but not sure if it matters as my team is a lot better.

    So guys, who can help me with my dilemma? Leave aside my specific case, at least from a more generally point of view, how to counter a 3-2-2-2-1 formation?
