Need to get offensive against 4-3N-2W-1

[Stefanut Stefanut]

What orders to use for 4-4-1-1 ?

Don't play down flanks. He has 4 each side and you have AMC. Mixed was the right thing to do.

Playing attacking with counter was a problem. He barely had possession yet still matched you. This tells me he countered you.
Don't put arrows on your strikers. It messes them up.

What orders to use for 4-4-1-1 ?

I don't use 4-4-1-1 so I can't say I've ever tested it but I would play

Normal mentality
Short passing
Mixed
Own half
Normal tackling
Zonal marking
No counter
No offside
No arrows

Why short ?

With an AMC sitting in between your ST and your MCs players are in close proximity. Added onto that, you have 5 players in midfield.
You CAN use mixed but why waste possession when you can keep the ball and create lots of chances at the same time.
