What is the most offensive formation?

[Stuptown FC]

I am looking for the most offensive formation that puts your players in the best position for goal scoring opportunity. Like if you are going against a team that is a lesser talent, and you want to destroy them, not just win?

Are there any formations that have proven to be highly productive offensively?

Thoughts?

[besssss]

yes , my formation 4 (dl.dc.dc.dr) 3 (mc.mc.mc) 3 (st.st.st)

there is no more offensive formation than this..

Yeah, classic 4-3-3 is pretty much as offensive as it gets...

Isn't it obvious?



Or with 1 CM and an extra F or AM

Thanks, I will have to give the 4-3-3 a try. What are your tactics typically when you play that formation? Are you normal, or defensive. blue arrows, red arrows?

Any formation that you put Attacking-Whole Pitch-Counter Attack then hope that the game engine doesnt screw you.

I would still advice to go against a much weaker opponent using a counter formation, defensive at first to gain all possession, and later if possession is good can change to attack/hard attacking.

The way this game works, i believe, in my past 15 seasons, no matter how strong a formation can get, even an attacking formation, there is a counter. And you don't want a weaker team to win you on counter, e.g.: 4-1-4-1 will usually destroy 4-3N-3 (from my records).

Another note, defensive doesn't mean your team doesn't attack at all. Against weaker teams, you can gain a lot more possession, and I have won > 10:0 against weaker teams using defensive mentality, in the previous seasons.

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..

What do you mean? I use Attacking formation with counter attack, but usualy it's only my own pitch. What is the glytch here??

Defending and Hard Defending, there is a difference there... I have never used Hard defending in the past 15 seasons. Else just use normal mentality.
