I'm a level 3 manager and just lost a game by 1-0 to a team with two 3* players and the rest were 2*. Myself, I started with a 6* goalie, four 5* players and six 4* players. The possession favoured me by 30-70%. I play hard attacking but still lost the shot rate 15-10. Can provide pics later, but have I missed something important?

Yeah you did miss something very important......, uhm, unlucky!
1. Your formation have a problem. may be you chose wrong formation to counter him
2. Hard attacking and your much weaker opponent chose denfensif and counter attack and lost 1-0 is something classic and typical in real life. Greece won europe 2004 by that way.
change your ordre to attacking insteed of hard attacking. post the match rating here we may have some ideal about it
Here's statistics ratings and formations. All my players had 85% condition or more.

4-4-2 is actually a good counter formation for your formation.
If you play 4-4-2 in the future I recommend you play

AMC

4-4-1-1 is a good counter-formation for the 4-4-2.
My orders for 4-4-1-1:
Through the middle
Normal tackling
any pressing style.. and so on
encourage AMC and it will be optimal!
Well, my formation is supposed to be good against classic 4-4-2.. Oh well. Hopefully only a one-time event but I was devastated either way :( Thanks for the answers!
From experience I found that the 4-4-2 classic exploits the flanks.Quote:

set through the middle. you have 0 player in flankQuote:

Its a randomizer, its life
too many people always cry on here that they have better players so they automatically should win lol
I've lost to a weaker team too last night. 2 of my teams (lvl5, lvl2) both with 70% possession, lost0-2, and 0-1. I think it's coded losses, in 2011, round3 of the EPL, something happened.
It's still weird if you play against a 36Q team which is using 4-2-3W-1 you win, while you play against a 23Q team which is using 4-2-3W-1 you draw.Quote:

Are you ****ting me? He has all his players in the middle of the park and your saying attack through the flanks lol. Lukas, mate you attack through the middle when using narrow diamond.Quote:

@tongly45Nice how you know the problems without any information from the actualy game.Quote:

i said that in general he has no problem with his formation, the only thing may cause him a formation problem is attack in flanks which i also though he didn't do? why the 2 guys think the same way? my english is awful, may be?Quote:

the problem was with the formation. I have seen ndiamond lose to 4-4-2 a few times already this season. a weaker apponent can beat you if they have the proper formation and tactics apparently. you cant argue this because there is proof that it happens in this thread and many others.Quote:
