i play 4-5-1
normal backline
dmc
mr/ml
amc/amc
st
he normally plays 4-1-3-2 with dmc mc mc mc in the middle (legal)
but he appears to be countering with
dc dc dc
dmc
mc mc mc
amc
st st
that is an illegal formation right? i just found out about illegal formations so im not really sure
so my (long) question is:
is he dumb?
does he maybe not know about illegal formations?
or can illegal formations actually work?
it`s not so much illegal now but if stay`s like this he will lose % of possession, he could be setting you up so look at previous games he`s played and formation in these
he usually plays 4-1-3-2 but he changed to this weird narrow thing yesterday. im pretty sure he is doing it to counter my width. maybe he doesnt know the rules. i didnt know them either until i came here. at first he changed to dc dc dc - dmc dmc - mc - amc -st st st but then he changed to this other thing
this is level 2. champions league quarterfinal first leg. i will try to remember to update the thread later
I'm pretty sure they removed illegal formations from the game, so it won't actually affect his possession directly. I'm 90% of it, but don't quote me as fact
oh weird. well he switched it anyway hahaha. maybe he was just trying to mess with me. useless thread is useless
