How to counter 4-4-2

[Philip L. Willis]

Leading my league, facing the second place team, we are equal is almost all aspect, he is slightly stronger in attack I am slightly strongly in defense, he plays 4-4-2 most of the time, but he is also a weird formation manager, a good one.


I'm mostly Narrow Diamond, he knows that, I will play a 3-5-1V against him. But will decide, watching what he is up to 3/4 minutes before play time, "Know your enemy, know yourself"~ Sun Tzu, Art of War. I have home and more than likely possession advantage, my entourage is formidable. Nice to have friends, (Note; Possession will not win you a match, but it doesn't hurt!).


As he is a strange formation player, I may just change to Narrow Diamond, by half time, if I feel uncomfortable. I will waste an AMC by doing that! I do not play players out of position, I'm pretty sure you will loose possession % when you do that. When you are even with the enemy, all the little things matters. Nothing guarantees a win, except luck, not even if you have 2/3 stars over them. We will see in 2 hours!
