Please advise needed badly
Thank you
Your formation is also the same as mine. I don't play very offensive so I don't get to score too much against good teams and seems like you need to win with 2 + goals. I would sugest going atacking with long passes through the middle and as well maybe you should get rid of 1 or 2 red arrows from your strikers. I usually put the best Striker that I have on the middle with arrow and leave the other's 2 without. Don't force counters because anyway your playing offensive and you have 3 strikers in your opponent's defence , and from my own experience counters only makes the game more risky for you as your team will focus too much on that. If the match is in 60-70 min and you have nothing to loose then go offside all field and counter.
I would start the match like this:
offensive, through the middle focus, own half, hard takling as your opponent does not have any FK specialist, long passes and zonal marking.
If you got nothing to lose and you want to throw all in I would sugest:
offensive, mixed, all field, hard takling, mixed passes and zonal marking and add also arrows on your DL and DR + counters and offside.
Don't go hard attacking or add to many arrows. I believe you may lose possesion and he may counter attack you more often.
My team goes like this:" normal, mixed, own half, normal, mixed, zonal, no off and no counter and I manage to get 4-5 counters in a normal match against a good team.
Good luck with your match, you will need it :)
