HOW DO YOU BEAT 4-3-3 - I have Trouble against this Formation - Help (CUP)

Level 7 Team:



I have read in counter formation 4-1-4-1 Does anybody else have better options or tactics?

I can use 4-4-2 / 4-5-1 V / 3-5-2 / 4-1-4-1

This is an away game so I dont want to give up to much posession. I think attacking from the sides / flanks makes sence but his team is slightly stronger than mine. : Help Please:

3-5-2v probably... but you don't even need the DMC so push him up to MC and that would be a 3N-3N-2W-2

I guess you could also use 4-1-4-1... that is the formation I've been seeing lately to counter it

[FlyingV]

3N-3N-2W-2 Sounds promising - Thanks !! - Any particular tactics you would use?

[dv8r]

Play it like you would with a 4-5-1 v, red arrows on AML/AMR and your two ST

[FlyingV]

Thanks dv8r,

Much appreciated Advice !!

How about the other orders?

Attacking mentality? (don't know if there is any difference when you're stronger or weaker)
Attack down the wings?
Pressing: whole pitch?
Tackling: (when best to use hard/normal/soft?)
Mixed passing?
Zonal defence

counter: no?
off-side trap: no?

Well it's up to you when it comes to mentality. If u wanna score goals and keep pressure then go for attacking. And if you want to keep ur net clean as much as u can and just wait for the right counter then go for defense.
Attack both flanks with red arrows on AMR & AML .i suggest using 2 (DMC)'s and if losing give both of them red arrows to help you control the center of the field. Pressing your own half, tackling: normal coz hard might cause red cards and penalties.
Passing style: mixed, go for counter attack.no offside trap.

Ps: you can start with red arrows on your DR & DL so they can help you in attacking the flanks for sure. but I usually don't take the risk of doing that when am playing against teams with strong strikers.
