Enable counter Attacking and DEF

[Paul Dahlin]

Hi All

Need something for the Champs League as a Goal down on Away, next match is on Home Soil.

Would something like this work for Goals with Counter Attacking on and Play the Team as Defensive?



Up against this Team




Thanks

There is no need for 5 defenders against 1 striker. You'll most likely need more players defending the midfield as well. Against 1 strikers formations with wingers, 3w defenders is all that's necessary. Then a combination of 3 DMC/MC (make sure MC's have blue arrows) should be useful.

The formation of choice for me against the 4-3n-2w-1 is either 3w-1-4-2 or 3w-5-2 flat.

For mentality, i'd go either normal or attacking.

Normal: down the flanks, own half, hard, mixed, zonal,

Attacking: down the flanks, whole pitch, hard, short, zonal, no counter, offsides
