Squad Depth

[Jason Andrew M.]

Easiest way is choose a formation you're happy with at the start of the season then make sure your 11 reserves duplicate the positions in your XI. Job done.

Obviously if you can pick out players that can play multiple positions, then that will be a bigger advantage, especially if you're like me and your whole midfield is out injured.

This strategy is based upon me not wanting to tamper with my formation very often due to nordeus's primitive game engine. That's why i've gone with a solid 4-4-1-1 and stuck with it regardless of opposition squad rating and level.

That will get you by the lower levels, but in higher levels when you play teams that modify formations, you will be at a slight disadvantage. If I played a 3-1-4-2 or a 3-1-4-1-1 on you, and we are about the same quality, my team would probably beat your formation. It's good to switch up your formations regularly!
