4-5-1 V style is not going so well

[Skidz]

Just like the real Borussia Dortmund, my team has been terrible in the league, but has been fantastic in the Champions League. As many of you know i use 4-5-1 v style, but in the league this season my 4-5-1 v style has been pathetic. Has anyone else been running into problems with 4-5-1 v style?

Have you kept your team updated!, have you tried changing formation in match play?

You could try 4-1-4-1 with what you have if you haven't already.

Only thing I can add is just a personal observation of my V-style last season when it stopped functioning. Whether its all in my head or not, I found an MC who seemed to lower the performance of his neighbouring players even when he played well - I sold him and tried another - his performance didn't set the heather on fire but my wingers saw more of the ball.

My team is built to play V-style but it doesn't all the time and even when it does it can be Normal, Defending or Hard Defending with various other order changes so its hard for me to comment on changes to a formation when I don't play it consistently one way.
