Has playing a DMC worked for you defensively?

That's an interesting formation. I have a hard time setting asymmetric formations myself but they can be effective. Just my opinion, but if that ST is right footed I'd play him on the right, unless the defense is weaker on the left (or right from other team's perspective). It's your team though, set it up how you like it most, and how it works best for you.

Well that was a tough lost, but please also include your tactics... that is probably as important as formations and arrows!

I'm sticking my neck out again, maybe for you to chop, but NOT good. Not the best formation you can play.

I've got 3 games tomorrow, tough cup game, tough CL game and playing 1st in my league who's got a 100% record so far this season, so we'll see how the formation stacks up. I have to admit I won't get ahead of myself, but I played a game in the league tonight and kept a clean sheet and smashed them 6-0. My AM was MOM and scored twice and my RM had a good game and scored twice as well. I'm not getting carried away though as my team had a much higher rating than them.

Yes he is left footed. He had a fairly average game to be honest tonight though, but my midfield were amazing and we won 6-0 so he didn't need to shine....

That answer is so much better than mine.

Yep, I like DMc's and sometimes will field 2 or 3 of them.

Especially play against ND..hehe.. 2DMCs are perfect...

Unfortunately I think we're going to have to sever your head from your body. Since switching to that formation;

P5 W4 D0 L1 F14 A3

Only defeat came against the guy who tops my league, is higher rated than me, 100% record this season, and I think is a token buyer, plus he switched the ko time to when I was asleep so I wasn't able to watch the game.

My attacking midfielder seems to love this formation, and there seems to be a new found solidness defensively, so perhaps a DMC won't be necessary.....
