counter a 3-5-2 flat with a very strong midfielder

when there is a flat midfield, without AMs or DMs, you have space in front and behind them, so what you do is use long passing to just pass over them to your attackers

Hey RJ, Im planning to use 3-5-2 against a 4-5-1 flat during my CL quart finals. What do you think?
Ive read thread that 4-5-1v to counter but most of them fails.
What about arrows and settings?

Don't play whole pitch this!!!General if you are much better from him you play whole pitch with attacking mentality and sometimes you need to play offside trap(for zone).if you play man to man with attacking mentality and whole pitch the counter attack and offside trap is off
