Id like to know how? (as Jay remarked above) You can even have a illegal formation...Surly its all managers prerogative to set up his side anyway he likes.. The only illegal side should be one that doesn't play a goalkeeper. Any other formation as set out by the manager is legal by definition...And having researched this a bit. There is no known illegal formations as far as the Laws of the game are concerned...Taken from the official rules of the game. "Each team consists of a maximum of eleven players (excluding substitutes), one of whom must be the goalkeeper. Competition rules may state a minimum number of players required to constitute a team, which is usually seven. Goalkeepers are the only players allowed to play the ball with their hands or arms, provided they do so within the penalty area in front of their own goal. Though there are a variety of positions in which the outfield (non-goalkeeper) players are strategically placed by a coach, these positions are not defined or required by the Laws"
As far as the above rules are concerned its not really a topic for discussion or at least shouldn't be.. Nordeus have simply for some reason be known only to themselves. Have rewritten the rules of the game to suit there own agenda...I am actually surprised there is not some sort of token penalty attached for playing what they, and only they, deem an illegal formation.
I have no input as to what is actually an illegal set-up.. Except that i have been very successful to this point (season six) and i have always played at least 2 wingers and try to always play 4 at the back.. Either as a flat back 4 or as 3N with a DMC. The only exception to this, is one rare occasions ill play with wing backs or full backs with AMR-AML in front of them with a single MC..As far as i am aware i have never had 20% possession in any game and after 5 full seasons i have only lost 9 league matches in total...
