Those changes would allow you to play all formations known to man and counter them all also.
Anything left an additional DCDL/DR with SA Defensive wall, SA also would be a bonus on all the above players. Corner Kick, Free kick, One v One, Play maker.
What formations did the 3-1-4-1-1 get beat with?.
Three defenders is OK against some formations but cautious against the number of strikers you play it against. I only use 3 wide rarely against a single striker and my DC has to be much better even then.
