The best formation (better %, not guarantee, as almost everything in t11) is 4-5-1 V , def/counter/flanks.
The problem in your case (when you're not watching) is that there are 4 positions of M players, DMC/MC/AML/AMR, so if you have an auto sub, it's possible to have a player oop. Also those positions need a different back up player.
4-4-2 is about the same unless you have a MC-ML-MR as sub but this needs a lot of powertrain
With a system 4-3-3, you need only MC & STs.
Another way of playing, is to have a second team, staying/tanking in the same level and after few seasons, when you gather money/T/booster to go for a championship/double or treble as I do this season with my team
