Counter formation support needed

[Snuffx]

Hello everyone,

I'm fairly new to the game and always trying to adapt my strategy but i came across a formation which beat me already and i still have 3 games against him: 2 in cup, 1 in league.

He is playing:
2DC- 2 Advanced wing defenders DL, DR- 2 MC - 2 Advanced wing midfielders AML, AMR - 2ST. It says 2-2-2-2-2 formation.
He is active, team power aprox 109 and has Mourinho for extra posesion.

I've played 4-4-2 defensive and wing long ball strategy then after 0-1 i switched to 3-4-3 offensive and he scored another goal.
My team power is 102 now.

He lost today against 4 DC-1 MC - 3AMC/L/R - 2ST so i wonder if that might work.

Thank you for the support!

I agree with this suggestion.
