How to counter 442

[Brian Dang]

This season 3-5-2 flat or narrow diamond works perfectly well for me...

I will use this thread instead making a new one. Later in the night got a match (cl final) against a sort of 4-4-2. The opponent formation is 4-2(mc-mc)-2(aml+amr)-2st. Should i use your recommendation for 4-3(ml-mc-mr)-3 or ND or 4-5-1? Our stats are almost the same so the right formation will be the key for success.

4-5-1 V-Style for Ryanwong.
Normal, both flanks, DR/L and DMC motivated, mixed pass and finally Counter Attack on.
Try this.

Joretonnyc, that formation is the 4-2-2-2 Hexagone, the 4-5-1V-Style also could rule

on my Personally Experience 4-5-1 V and 4-3w-3

If you want to play with 4-4-2 give in ML-MR and 2 ST red "arrows". Only this for work your team.
But i think for your team the tactic 3-1-4-2 will be more better. and the arrows the same with 4-4-2.

And remember something... In football don't have matter if you win with 10+ goals, but if you win! the goals you give will be forgotten once, but the match you lose will not forgotten.
(Sorry for my english).

I don't think the 4-4-2 classic has a natural counter because it's so balanced and versatile. One thing, I recommend is looking at the stats of your opponets players and see if you can identify what is the most likely arrows for his players. Whenever I face 4-4-2, I assume they'll attack the flanks and defend the middle but it isn't always the case. For example, in the champions league semifinals I can up against a 4-4-2 classic and noticed his wingers has scored a total of 2 goals all tournament, whereas his midfielders had at least quadrupale that amount, telegraphing the attack was coming through the middle. I decided upon a 4-1-2-1-2 ND and beat him 5:0.

I never play with 4-2-2 i don't like. I'm play as first tactic 4-1-2-1-2. Arrows only on MC. Today on Final Cup, i play with a guy with tactic 4-1-4-1 pfff very strong defense. he team rate 23,9 and my team rate 26,2 and i win him 2-0. With possession 60 for me and 40 for him. .

I thought will be a draw, but I made the change. I think back I should not make those change (changing player)

However, Thanks Guys

uhmm...Ryan...i think you deployed an illegal formation...did your possession never overcome 20%? If so, that is and that's the reason of your default.

[Ryanwong]

Bubba not only me on illegal formation


NOW YOU NEED TO TEACH ME HOW TO WIN
With not illegal formation!
