Play a 3-5V-2:
-----DC--DC--DC-----
---------DMC--------
-----MC------MC-----
AML--------------AMR
-----ST------ST------

Tactics:
Attacking, Mixed, Own Half, Normal, Mixed, Zonal, Off, Off

Red forward arrow on DMC (like you have) and Blue Defense arrows on both MCs.

I have a personal bone to pick against the "forward 4-2-3-1". It's caused me plenty of grief. Since changing to the 3-5V-2 using the exact tactics mentioned, I have only lost once. That game I played too many players out of position and it really hurt my team's ball movement.

Expect to defend a lot of corners, play the "Ariel Defender" special ability if you have it.
