I am playing the champions league final against a stronger team than me.
I only can use narrow diamond no other tactic.
But what orders should I use?
I thought about defensive own half pressing and force counter attacks.
Here is his team

defensive own half pressing
and use my formation 3(w)-4-3
It works against 3-4-1-2
Thanks for the reply Martins.
Maybe I will use the orders you specified...
But I will stick to my formation 4-1-2-1-2.
Anyone else?
As you are only using narrow diamond then you should use through the middle for focus passing,attacking, press own half, hard tackling, passing style short as with a diamond your players are close together!, zonal marking, play offsides but dont force counter attacks! just yet, if things are getting despereate then switch to it as a last resort!, Arrows is a tricky one, reds on all players in the attacking half of the pitch.
Don't you think that mixed passing is better with narrow diamond,I mean counter attacks can't be always efficient with short passing sometimes long passes are needed too.Quote:

And last how will the arrows work? I mean he has a really strong defence too (well he has 3 Defenders) but he can defeat me with counter attacks beacause he has more players in attack than me...
Thank you
"Second of all he has a very strong AMC who will crush my offside tra" this could work to your advantage as he has so many offensive players in your half that there will be alot more chance to cath one ofside!. you need to play four across the back though!!!.
2nd you can use mixed pasiing if you like or switch between the two my friend, playing force counter attacks will leave you more exposed to conceading aswell and he has a very good team so it would be a gamble to start with that, I wouldnt but its your team at the end of the day!.
Arrows...playing all reds is giving you an attacking threat, if you dont want to be that offensive then take a couple off! but I never use blues in any formation!!!.
Thank you very much Skidz! I learned very much from your post above...Quote:

Well in my case my opponent's players are faster than my defenders.
Second when I said counter attack I didn't mean counter attack in the order...
I meant counter attack break. You know counter attack break for Fc Barcelona,X passes the ball to XX. XX tries to slide it past the goalie etc
That's why I think mixed passing is better than short in counter attack breaks.
And third with many arrows won't I be vulnerable with counter attacks?
Thank you
If you dont play many arrows and your opponent does you will get bombarded by wave after wave of attacks from him!, you have basicly handed the enititive to his team!, so by playing red arrows you are adding a threat of your own and giving his back four something to deal with!, his team is full of scouts so unless you have a very good team aswell I dont think you got much of a chance! can you print your team up so I can have a look at it.
3w-1-4-2, remember full moral, hp and FULL bonus
You are vulnerable to counter attacks when your player arent fully fit and/or players are not well balanced, usually a st, amc trigger counter attack , so make sure they are fit(moral wise, hp wise) and red arrows on them so they dont come in defense to trigger counter attacks,. CHEERS AND GOOD LUCK, i think you will win

The qualities are the following...
Strikers Cho 66 quality (maybe he is low quality but he is a very good performer) Messi 70 quality
AMC Ntounis 69 quality
Midfielders Kola 68 quality Varvodic 70 quality
DMC Veselovsky 70 quality
Defenders DL Kyrgiakos 71 quality DC Pavlov 68 quality DC Alves 71 quality DR Badoi 70 quality
Goalkeeper Kontogonis 70 quality
Thank you
P.S Also please tell me on which players I should put arrows on, and the final orders
You have a good team so you have a 35-65 chance in my opinion, His midfield scouts are corner kick specialist so thats not good for a MC scout, he does have a freekick specialist so you will have to be carefull of him, his wingers are not dribblers so thats good also and he only has one scout defender with defence special ability so he does have weakness!, I would play red arrows on your MCs AMC AND STs, leave the rest empty! if your still want to be a bit more cautios play a blue on your DMC. You both only have two flank players so your defence should cancell out his flank players so its even there!, Midfield is going to be very congested and he has a narrow back three, you really needed attacking wing players here!, if you can contain him then this game maybe close like 0-0 or 1-1 and go to pens!, cant say much more with you formation and what you have left on the bench!, anyway orders play ATTACKING, Mixed focus passing with the option to play through the middle!, press own half!( dont go chasing the ball too early or you team will get tired!) hard tackling( you need to control the ball and keep possession), mixed passing style and zonal marking, play offsides A MUST!, NO force counters at the start!( use this at half time or late on if you need a goal, you do not want to expose yourself to early or he will destroy you in the first half!).Quote:

This happened in the match:
http://prntscr.com/3febf3
Kola got 2 yellow cards... Ronaldo my opponents world class 75 quality free kick specialist missed 3 or 4 freekicks. He shot them wide!
After Kola got 2 yellow cards I had to change my formation...
I changed it like this
http://prntscr.com/3fe94c
With the same orders
Then my opponent's MC Xabi Alonso was sent of due to a professional foul.
Then Messi took the penalty but my opponent's keeper Iker Casillas 76 quality World Class saved the penalty
Then Varvodic scored a corner crossed by Messi in the 62th minute...
I changed the orders like this

Siddharth I am glad I didn't listen to you... :)
Thank you Skidz for your tips!
Well done bro
I prefer Master ! Lol
I am glad too...If your are chopping and changing your formation and tactics then it does not matters but if you played your whole season with the same formation and tactics and if you decide to change your formation for a particular game then the chances of your defeat increases...
You played an illegal formation after the change, consider your self lucky...And probably this proves the theory that the win is decided before the game starts...And after that the chances to manipulate it is very small...
