Advice for my 3-1-4-1-1

[kamillu]

Hi guys,

First of all, I hope i can ask it here because i've no idea in which thread it would stand otherwise.

I play Top Eleven for a month now, and i'm surprised i liked it so much. It's really addictive!
In my first season a lucky fourth place. But my results are getting worse this season...
I lose from other teams who have a less team, or only have 4 players in their first 11.

What i'm looking for is some advice to chanche my tactics or formation (or both?)
Maybe it's for the more experienced players a piece of cake what i have to chance, but for a amateur like me it's still quite complicated.

I have read the sticky's but it doesn't seem to work.
This is my team at the moment:


-Normal
-Through the middle
-Own half
-Normal
-Short passing
-Zone

From my few experience on playing football manager games, together with top eleven of course I might help you a little.

The formation looks good to have a compact midfield area, hence increase possession.

As regards tactics I would either go playing from both flanks (or select which flank is best to attack from according to your opponent's right/left backs). Also I would play with mixed passes and pressing throughout the field since you have a good midfield which would possibly create more chances to score.

Personally I also prefer man marking.
