The DMC plus 2 MCs gives a 3:2 advantage (possession advantage) at midfield.
AMC plus single ST, attacking middle, to exploit the hole in the middle of his defense, 2 flankers to draw off his defenders even more to the outside, feed the ball to the middle, and make it a legal formation.

Defensive tactic because I'm assuming he's using hard attacking/middle based on his formation and typical mindset, plus I usually end up with more shots and more on target shots using defensive /counter.
RAZZ - I love this information Razz but Question:

You mention "hole in his Defense" I was always under the impression that the two central defenders covered everything in the center, is this not the case?
