    Awkward formation... any ideas?

    Desert Rats' opponent tomorrow is all over the place:

    --- ---- ST ---- ---
    AML --- --- --- AMR
    --- MC MC MC ---
    DML --- --- --- DMR
    DL --- DC --- ---
    --- --- GK --- ---

    Any ideas on a formation to counter that?

    I'm toying with 4-3N-2(AML/R)-1, but that DL is giving me issues.
    Any formation or tactics advice given is based purely on experience with my teams...

    I hate asymmetrical formations
    Usually I 'm playing something normal that fits
    for example a 4-4-2 narrow diamond gives an advantage, playing from the middle
    but , you know, sometimes it fails and you could see opponent DL MoM

    Yes, a 'can't see the wood for the trees' moment - take advantage of the three DMC and two DC slots that are free in his defence...

    Update: Went with the 4-3N-2(AML/R)-1 in the end as my AMC got injured. Won 3-1, the problematic DL flopped (6.3), he was up against my AMR/MR player who scored one, assisted one and rated 9.4 (MoM)...
