I'd recommend that swap that DMC for an extra MC. I used to start with 4-5-1v always, and against 4-4-2 last season, I conceded the first goal every time. But then I made the sub in 2 of the games and won both. I used blue/down arrow on DMC (hoping you played the old version) and red/up arrows on the wing players. And I passed down flanks. Didn't change it since I was unbeaten for a record 26 once.
