If a defensive midfielder is injured.....

[BeckStar]

.....which player will auto substitute him if he playing in a defensive midfield slot ? From the pool of defenders or pool of midfielders ? Since there's no auto field called "defensive midfielders". Or the game will just intelligently auto source out a substitute defensive midfielder from any pool if there is one ?

There's no sub for DMC and AMC, that's why we strongly sugest you to play a formation that has all positions covered

4-4-2 used to be the safest formation, not anymore.. cause you get a red card on your MC you would automaticlly have 20% possession.

4-3N-2W-1 is risky but as long as you don't get red cards on you'r ST you would be fine. All positions are covered there.

You could also use 4-5-1, same problem as previous formation cause you've only get 1ST.

4-3-3 could work aswell, as long as your DL/DR doesnt get red cards..
