Is it me or is it that counter formations don't seem to work as effective any more?

Dont know if the "counterformations" work or not, but I experienced that formations like 4-4-2 Classic and 4-5-1/ 4-1-4-1 Flat are more or less effective against all the other formations (mostly the offensive ones). Also, when I play "attacking" I score less. But when I play defensive + counterattack I score at least 6 or 7 goals

I play better on normal than on defensive.. why is it the other way for you?
