Try 442 - why the striker with Free-Kick speciality don´t play? Start the game with Szerelesi stilus hard and no Lescsapda alkalmazasa. Too much red arrows. No arrows in the defense or blue ones, no arrows for striker (never), maybe in the midfield on MR/ML. Sell 2*-players, maybe 3*, too if they´ve bad statistics. This could be the begining of a good future

I'll try! Thank you!

When you want to Keep this Formation, you should set red arrows only on ML/MR and ST (ST because you should Play defensive and force couner attack). when there is an amc on opposites site, you should set blue arrow on the MC in the middle.

Now the Orders:
Defensiv
Mixed
Own half
Hard
Long
Zone
No offside
yes force Counter

I would not Play attack, because your Team Need stronger Players for it.
Force Counter and Offside Trap together can not work!
I would Play attack, if i had a strong Team with Players that fill at the minimum3 attacking postions (AML - ST - AMR / ST -ST - ST / AMC - ST - ST / AML - AMC -AMR - ST)

You should note: Defensive mode + Counter attack
Offensive mode + Offside Trap (only when there is no AMC)

I hope i could help you. Good luck

First of all, you are using a Defensive formation 4-5-1 flat. If you want to use that formation, you need to use this strategy I will give you.

Team Mentality: Defensive
Focus Passing: Mixed (if your opponent line-up have 4 wingers DR,DL,MR/AMRand ML/AML and midfielders ) Down Both Flanks(if your opponents have only 2 fullbacks such as DR and DL or if he is using 3 DC's.
Through the middle ( if he has a defensive line of 1 DR,1 DC,1 DL wide set up. and without DMC )
Pressing Style: Own half
Tackling Style: Normal
Passing style: Long
Marking Style: Zonal

Force counterattacks: Yes
Play Offside trap: No

Arrows: No arrows on DR,DC,DC,DL Red Arrow: MR,ML. If your opponent has AMC, change 1 of your MC to DMC, if no DMC, just put Blue arrow on the center MC.

This set up is for Defensive game. It doesn't garantee wins but seeing your current set-ups, I think what i have given you has far more effectiveness on that formation.

4-5-1 v style should improve your results long term.....you work out the arrows and orders though...all i'm saying is that 4-5-1 v style can be used to counter almost any formation at your level ,provided you adapt it right

Ow yeah, take my advice alongside with the brilliant remarks mentioned above by other posters.....Some really seem to know their stuff.

[PaCe Ros]

Darn, Just realise you are in lvl 10 too.Maybe I should have waited till end of season......wuahahahahahaha

You seem to have good midfield , as far I can see.
If anything , I see two problem areas, Your defence is the weakest link. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and your defence being the weak link , is a pretty big issue actually.

You will lose less with good defence, win more with good midfield and attack.
Your defence is pretty poor, and your attack......Well , Wow, bit of overkill there mate........6 strikers???????

If I were in your position, I would chose 3 strikers to keep, for example to good strikers and 1 youth player. I generally like to train my own youth players opposing to buying youth from others to train.
4 strikers at tops at any given time though, as I also need reserves for defenders and midfield.

Your defence could use some re-inforcement. Preferably a defensive wall defender (DC) if you can afford , at the very least preferably , defenders just as strong as your midfielders.You should be able to get 2 good defenders at the expense of 3 strikers.

Personally if I would be losing, I would most likely go as far to selling 4 strikers. I use formations with 1 strikers, and also some strikers seem to thrive playing alone. (*I do use AMC though, preferably with shadow strike ability)

In my case, Playing with 1 striker , allowed me to enforce midfield ( for more possesion) and/or enforce my defence, to make it harder for opponents to score. Even with multiple strikers.

Having 3 strikers is the best long term solution though, bearing injuries at mind. And multiple matches on 1 day ....If you do well, next season , you have competition and league /cup match every day.......so cant hurt to have a back-up than.

Still though, based on your explanation and looking at your formation, I am pretty sure to believe that your problem lies, in lack of adjustment of the win bonus. Its pretty obvious that you are trying to play for a good result, looking at the build up of your team.

Playing friendlies helps find sore spots just like this, try to use friendlies to experiment with the various settings and compare the outcome. Especially pre-season
