Orders I was guessing down both flanks, attacking, hard tackling, mixed passing, zonal marking, whole pitch pressing, no counter and no offside. Similar average quality although my team is more balanced - 1 5 star the rest 4 and his 1 6, most 4 but some 2 and even 1.

His formation:

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

Thanks
You pretty much got it right bud!, I would be playing 4-1-3w-2 to add exta threat upfont as he is only playing one striker!, I dont like playing whole pitch pressing as your players will get tired quicker and you are more prone to counter attacks, I would also play offsides.
