I want to use 4-4-2 Formation this year for the very first time.
Please could somebody offer me advice on which players should I use arrows on? and secondally, what team orders should I use?
Thank you all so much!

Attachment 57407 This is what I have so far.
Attachment 57408 Here are my player arrows.
I would only use arrows against teams with 3CBs and put red on fullbacks and wingers.
This formation is weak against narrow diamond so swap a striker for a DMC.
The good thing about 4-4-2 is orders can vary. Attack against weak teams, normal against equal and defend against strong teams.
What's your form with that?Quote:

Orders, normal down flanks mixed passes normal/hard tackling zonal low no counter no offisides arrows red flanks blue on both MCs,if play against a stronger defensive and no arrows full backs if against weaker attacking with short passes, that's about I play but sometimes I try something different when it doesn't work also needs good wingers or it doesn't work att all 4-4-2.
Ok, you have a good squad there so try thisQuote:

If you find yourself losing, change to high press, hard tackling, arrows on wingers and fullbacks and play offside late in game.
Avoid 4-1-2-1-2 narrow formations, counter this by 4-5-1v
I am thinking in one thing if nothing works... that u can test... and is a 3-4-1-2 or 3-4-3 in mode:
-----ST-----ST----
-------AMC-------
----MC-MC-MC-MR
----DC-DC-DC----
but is just a test for fun if nothing works, really I have to prove it... coz 4-4-2 is one of the srongest formations xD
in my signature you will find a link ;)
you can't run red arrows on your defenders (unless they are scout level or higher) without going high pressing/offside trap. Putting counterattacks on means you are allowing them space to get into your half and then attempting to win the ball and attack quickly. Your orders/tactics are counterintuitive to this and this is why you are losing. Your defenders are getting caught up the pitch and you are losing possession/conceding because of it. The only formation i could see your current orders working against would be 5-4-1/5-3-1-1 and nobody plays it.
Had an Away Cup Match vs team that played an attacking 4-4-2. I was one point better and won 1-0 w/o watching. Played 4-4-1-1 normal/mixed/mixed. Counter & Offside On. I normally play 4-5-1v or 4-4-1-1/ 4-1-3-1-1
