4-5-1 v style is good against 4-3n-3. he probably covered his flanks

RJ, he said 4-3W-3

I know, im saying that i would not of used 4-5-1 v style against 3w, I would use it for 3N. So he probably used his ML and MR with blue arrows and covered his flanks

Not always, it depends on the orders.

True but with the right orders it works well, which is what i am saying

For my experience, against 3W midfielders is always Best to use also 3W or 5 flat.

I posted the orders. Only thing I would have done different is set to up both flanks.

Attack
Mixed
Own
Normal
Mixed
Zonal
Force C/A

What confuses me is. I played against a higher quality side. who was using a 4-4-2. and won the match 3-1 the night before ..

So your saying a 4-5-1 or 3-5-2.. red arrows on wingers?

I prefere to use 3151 with red arrows on the MCs without opponent, that way they can work more as false AMCs, since they have no one marking them.
