need solution to beat 4-4-2 classic

[Wilson Loo]

I use 4-4-1-1, red arrows just on MR\L

It normally works

it lacks firepower. i have tried it many seasons ago

4-2-3-1 worked well for me.
Red arrows on the wingers and press the whole pitch.

if i am against a strong team i am dead at the back . this seems work good on weak opponent.

interesting , never tried that before
but work better away than home imo
bzc at home they will counter attack you meaning their LM/RM will have free spaces as your winger will fly up attacking more at home regardless of your orders .. while in above game, you played away so your players will tend to sit in front of their RM/LM , so it can work perfectly away

Im very confuse about 4-4-2.
I often use 4-5-1 V style formation.Sometimes I beat strong teams.I defeated good rating team two consecutive days with 7:2 and 5:0.Then I lost with 1:3 from weaker team.Same mentality,same morale and condition,same orders.Im not sure what tactic to use.I think 4-3W-1-2 is the best way to counter and I hope my AMC will have big role,cuz he hasn't DMC.

AMC without SS special ability seems useless to me as i tested myself. cant make much impact in game.

beat one yesterday his AVG was 48, mine my AVG was 53, he was watching too
orders: blue arrows on CBs, red arrow on DML/DMR, Normal, mixed , mixed, no counter, no offside, own half , easy (you can choose normal if you want )


please note i played normal mentality bcz i was at home, away may be tempted with counter and defending may be .. didn't test it .. but i noticed defending at home never work , you need to attack, the inverse is true when playing away
