my opponent today is also playing a 4-1-2-1-2Wide and I noticed on the table of formations thread it says that 3-5-2 will counter but was wondering what the team orders should be?

ciao salve , io sn uno nuovo, siccome non so come inviare un messaggio al forum per del aiuto ho preso il primo che capitava per farmi dare delle informazioni , mi puoi aiutare gentilmente?
I made good experiences against this system with 4-1-4-1 You can start with normal mentality, attack down both flanks, mixed passing (since a 4-1-2-1-2 player normally attacks). To make additional pressure you can motivate the wingers and turn the system in offense into a 4-5-1 V-style.
Another option is 3W-2DMC-3W-AMC-1 (with motivated ML, MR). Won last years CL final with this tactics vs. 4-1-2W-1-2. Similar mentality like above, but mixed attack can be chosen here. You can also choose long balls instead of mixed and activate "force counters".
edit:
Ah, I see you only have one AML and MR/AMR. That makes it difficult.
Something like 3W-2DMC-3N-AMC-ST or 3W-2DMC-2N-AMC-2ST with attack trough the middle and short passing could be an option, but I have never tried that vs. 4-1-2W-1-2.
Good luck and please give a report about what you have chosen and the result.

Good luck dude. Kind of ironic I posted about 4-1-2-1-2 a week ago and now all these forum posts are about 4-1-2-1-2. xD
