Finally the game engine behaves for once and gives you a big victory vs the illegal formation.

So this is what my CL looks like. fc tumpas continuing to get stronger. He has an insane budget... $53.7M and growing, not sure if he buys them with tokens or merchants on the TL but either way, that's crazy cash to have at level 5

I would back you all the way at EVS and I would definately have some wager on Kabol at 20/1, looks like a quality of 40.8 they are not to be underestimated as a potiential Semi-Final Opponent.
Final: Perfect Tactics vs AC Sparta Akcaya.
Personally Kabol are about 8/1 shots and Tadhamen City should be 500/1.
Reason I put Kabol at 20/1 was because he's kind of inactive as in he doesn't watch his matches. He had a few cagey results in the group stage and I would put him higher but if he were to get past me, he would have to beat tumpas fc who he struggled against in the CL group stages and I'm sure Sparta Akcaya would give him some problems. Probably put him at 12/1 at most
Yes Manager activity is obivously has a part to play, but even being semi active he is still your very likely Semi-Final opponent and also 40.8 in L5 is a decent level of quality, but you should honestly have no real problems winning against him if you say he is a semi-active player... I tend to call players with decent teams and not watch games "semi-active" to distinguish from the inactive clubs.
Lets see if there are some videos...
4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond, my 4-5-1 V *should* deal with it.. honestly, I don't even know with counter formations these days. Some team won 13-0 in my CL and his formation wasn't even a counter formation for his opponent lol. Yeah.. 4-3N-3 beating 3N-4-3, 13-0 away... lol
That's also what I'm doing.. I mean, it has worked for me in the past and don't get me wrong, they can work but at the moment it's costing me goals. Where I'd usually smash teams 8-0, 9-0, etc.. with my 4-3N-2-1, I win 3-0, 4-0 when I try using 3-1-4-2 or some formation that my best players can't fit in, I win 2-0, 3-0, etc..
So I'll probably only use them if it's necessary to
