Can anyone please help with this formation? How to counter it. ThanksAttachment 66614:mad::mad::mad:
I think you should use defensive counter long ball passing formation like 451v if you can.
Put blue arrows on your DL and Dr and maybe DMC also.
During live match, watch your players' ratings and your opponent's ratings after halftime
For examble: if your DMC was rating under 6.5, remove the arrow, if your amr/l were 6.8 put red arrows and so on.
Post your result here plz.
I hope you will win :)
Id use defensive, low press, long ball, mixed probably, counter on - if I was weaker. Go more attacking otherwise.
This tactic is becoming more and more trendy. I play 4-5-1V most of times and could not beat it in 4 games against (slightly) weaker teams. I would recommend 4 midfielders against this (and this I cannot do).
Your players are tired, they should be all around 90%+ at match time.
the match is like in 17 hours
At Start of the Saison, I faced this formation (opponent was slighty better). I mostly play 4-5-1V, but their it didn't work. Tactics were defending-long-mixed-on-low-normal-zonal-off.
Was down 0:2 at halftime, switched to 3-3 (MC)-2w-2, hard attacking, high press and won 5:2. But maybe it was big luck.
2nd leg (away) I used 4-2(DMC)-1-2w-1, hard defending-mixed-mixed-on-low-low-zonal-off.
It ends 1:1, but I conceeded the goal from dircet FK, overall he only had 3 shots on target, my team had 8 shots on target.
That's my experience with this formation.
this game is ****ing broken..,,..... i was winning and that guy scores in 90 min ggAttachment 66656
Which tactic, formation?
Both managers on?
Anyone found a good counter-tactic for this?
I struggle against ~20% weaker teams. :(
I also tried to counter it with same formation, attacking-mixed-short-off, low-normal-zonal-off
But 5 tries ended: 2 wins (vs much weaker team), 2 loses (vs 1 equal, 1 slightly stronger), 1 draw (vs equal).
Any ideas?
Anyone?
4-2MC-3W-1ST is my favorite formation. defensive style and counter attack from both flanks.
the key is fast runner in both flanks (AMR, AML, DL, DR arrow up)
depend on situation, i can change it into 4-2MC-2W-2 or 4-2MC-1-3
to encounter this, you should have good defensive set (2DC, DL, DR and DMC) or (3DC, DML and DMR). good luck!
IF you're close to even , or stronger, I usually go 3w-5-2 v style, or even 3w-1-2-3w-1. Always works for me when I'm close to even or stronger. If significantly weaker, then what most people said on page one will do.
3w-5-2 v style
4-1-4-1 is working with 4-2-3-1. I had a game last week with this formation and he lost 3-1. I us normal mentality, both sides attack, long passing, counter on, own half, hard tackling, Marking zonal, offside of. No arrows.
Season 93 & 95 (current season) CL final I played against 4-2-3-1; use 4-1-4-1
Normal, mix, mix, low, normal, zonal, no c/a n offside; won the match.
Ps: I don't play c/a since I found it's broken, funny part is my setting is no c/a but still my team do counter attack when get chances.
I use 3n-1-4-1-1 in following manner;
--------------------ST------------------
-----------AMC(up arrow)-----------
ML(Down)--MC--MC--MR(Down)
-----------DMC(Down)---------------
-----------DC--DC--DC--------------
Attacking - Through the middle - short - off
High - Normal - Zonal if you think your MR/ML can back track and control his/her AM (else MTM) - off
This has worked for me. My motivated AMC occupies his/her DMC. MR/ML with down arrow play their roles but priority is given to tracking back and control AM. Above all you'll have 6 mid fielders that'll kill the opponent with possession.
I use 3 wide - 1 (dmc) - 4 - 2 (st). Strictly attacking, center, long passes, no c/a, high pressure, normal, zone, no offsides.
Work all the time. Even against very strong opponents
