What I noticed from my match, most of his attacks which actually had me biting my nails were from his wingers. I suggest you use a formation with wingers, maybe 4-4-2 or 4-3w-3... Attack down the flanks, mixed passing with own half pressing... If playing 4-3w-3 red arrows on ML/R, MC and all ST's...

Not saying it will work but just suggestions. Maybe get other members to give a bit more info on this...
