And what is the right command?

[Mexanik]

One thing I've noted after playing 4-1-2-1-2 Narrow Diamond against 4-4-2 Classic, is that I get very low rating (in 4-6 range) for my DMC, who is a very decent defensive-minded player. 2 DCs versus his 2 STs and he has no players in the AM line, so seemingly DMC doesn't see much of the ball and is pretty much useless here?! Probably 4-3N-1-2 would be more logical against 4-4-2 Classic? Any ideas?

Tell me how I should play the second leg in the cup?
Opp - 20, me - 23.

I played a match.
I started 4-5-1 М style and missed the goal, I changed tactics to 4-2-2-2 and a super attack and scored two goals - that's me completely arranged.

This is how I usually beat 4-4-2

DR---- DC------DC----DC-
------DMC-----DMC-------
-------MC------MC--------

Attacking
&
Focus passes down the middle.

Always win by quite a margin. Since I started using this formation, I havent lost against anyone using 4-4-2

i had success with 4-1-3w-1-1 using short passes and also by 4-1-3n-2 the main thing is to use the middle line through 4-4-2 as it leaves a full gap through the middle

I usually beat a 4-4-2 formation with this formation:
