    Unfortunately, I mis-interpreted your post, which is easy to do with the lack of some vital info. If I made this mistake, many others could too. just sayin.

    As I said in my post, the opponents formation is key. We both know this. I think my formation was a bit more defensive but it does not make it better. I believe we have both given him some very good defensive formations.
    How did you misinterpret my post? Yes, I also said the opponent's formation is a factor, and I think even the players. In my first league match, my opponent had a strong team in 4-3W-3 except his left ST who was 2*, that's why I played that asymmetric formation.

    For me, 3-3-3-0-1 is the best defensive formation. The minimal 1 ST is present, as well as 3 Ms to have 4 players in the opponent's half. I explained why I prefer DMs, but you need 3 defenders, so 3-3-3-1, again, actual player position depends.

    Yeah, the main formation is there, of course, just 3 players in each of the back rows, and then 1 ST to keep it legal, but not necessarily 3N-3W-3N-1. I'm not making an issue out of this, though, most of my post isn't even a reply to yours.

    We both said the opponent's formation is important, you've agreed with that, so no issue there. I then go on to point out that even the players are important, using my own experience from my first league match this season. In the second paragraph, I explain my views on the best defensive formation, and how I came to it. Everything I've said is related to the topic, and nothing to do with you.
    God Bless!
