How to beat 4-1-3W-2 stronger than me by 6 points ?

[pat0812]

In the counter formation thread it says to use 3N-1-4-2

Should i play defensive ?

Should I use counter attacks or offside trap ? I was thinking counter attacks but if I'm write i remember reading somewhere that counter attacks are not effective if opponent has a DMC. Is this right ?

Should I play long, short or mixed passing ?
Play on flanks, middle or mixed ?

Any arrows on players ?

can I play 3N-1-4-1-1 ? I want to add an AMC in stead of an extra striker ? would it work better ?

This worked so incredible well. Won 3-0 against a guy as good as me without even watching the game! The only thing i changed was putting blue arrows on my left and my right DC.

I don't like to go one ST against a four at back as the ST gets double marked by the 2 DCs. U can put the AMC, but don't compensate on ST, play ML MR an only 1 MC instead of two and so put in an AMC instead of the other MC. Therefore, u can play 3N-1-3W-1-2. Its a good idea to play AMC as he will keep the opponent DMC busy, thus not letting the DMC contribute in the defence behind.
