What is the most offensive formation?

Isn't it obvious?



Or with 1 CM and an extra F or AM

Hi,this formation seems to be highly vulnerable to counterattack and in away matches,when you don't have the ball possession.
Even if you're much stronger than your opponent,he should counter you with a 4-1-3-1-1 or 4-1-2-1-2.

I suggest you a 3-4-1-2 using this schema: dc-dc-dc ---- ml-mc-mc-mr ---- amc ---- st-st. It has more equilibrium in midfield and defense.

If defense works and midfield avoids counterattacks,you have more efficiency to try scoring with your whole team,not only your st players, and your players get tired less often.

Hard Defending always tend to backfire, so avoid it like a plague. It only works probably when you are 4-0 up in the first half and don't want to tire your players for the next match.

I have used Hard Defending with 4-5-1V and it backfired in my face for some reason I didn't lose but the game was 4-0 and ended 4-2..

That is always what I am worried of when I go to a defensive tactic. I assume that defensive means your own team sits back and absorbs the attack by having numbers back. Therefore giving your opponent time to get more shots. More shots, means more goals eventually.

Update, I went with the 4-3-3 and won the match against a better team! I went down 0-1 and then came back to win it 3-1! I used Attacking, Through the middle, Whole Pitch, and Counter. I may have turned counter off mid game and when I went down, I switched to high attacking.

Thanks for the help!

I can confirm 4-1-2N-1-2 is a good counter for 3W-2N(MC)-3W(AM)-2. I faced this formation with one of my teams in last years CL final and won 4-0 (teams on par, me 2 quality points stronger). Tactics: Normal, mixed through middle, no offside. Defense, long counter might work well if you are worse in quality.
