Tactics are pretty much the same as you use for the 4-5-1 v, add red arrows to AML/AMR if you want

Let us know what you used and what the score was please!
OK, I am pretty much inexpirienced, less than 1 month in Top Eleven, but I want to understand your logic before implementing this strategy. Unless I understand game mechanics completly wrong it looks like You put your defenders and DMC exactly to the spots where there wuld be no attackers giving them free zones otherwise (inviting to attack).

If I play defensive I would rather put my defenders to mark each of attackers (one extra defender to avoid illegal formation), as follows:
-----MC---MC-----
-DML---DMC---DMR-
----DC--DC--DC----

If I play attacking I would put my defenders as follows:
------MC---MC-----
--------DMC---------
-DL---DC---DC---DR-

And if I am crazy attacking, I would play only 3 DCs and would send everybody else to attack (mirroring his formation).

Obviously you have much more experience. Can you please explain your choice above? Giving me fishing rod instead of fish.
