I wish that I won that match if I played any other formation, 4-4-2 is not working for me, yesterday I was about to loose a league game, but suddenly I switched to 4-1-2-1-2 after half time then I scored 3 goals and won by 3-1 to a weak team
Atlético Kolkata Day 17 & 18 Report
Day 17: Both 3-3 and on road. The league result was totally trolled (he had 33Q vs my 38Q):
MOM was DC Jong-Shin Kim, who showed up 8.8. In the CL we were already up by 2-0 in first leg, so played defensively. But we also got those away goals. Definitely, this match was the toughest I'd ever faced in a long time. Both managers were present, and it's important to forget friendship in the field if you're opponents, especially if it's competitive. The result: The performance of the defence of both teams was a total joke. The draw was a result of our fantastic midfield. The MOM was captain Claudio Jaque, under whose captaincy we are yet to lose. So Atlético Kolkata qualifies for CL quarterfinals for the first time ever.
Day 18: A dip in the 2nd place team sent the 3rd-5th teams in a race to grab that spot. Today we faced them at home and won 3-2. Just one point separates us now. The result: The winner came by MOM John in the 75'.
Colm Moore has played every match this season, since he's my only AMR. I found a backup, who may very well start soon. Got up in a bidding war which went till Round 5, where I bid my 6th and last token:
I am considering to give him Free Kick SA, since Entwistle's contract will end this season.

A good defence is the best offense.

Day 18 - Palace Casuals report.
Away at 10th place 4-5-1V-user, so Casuals slipped into unfamiliar territory, having to counter the formation they are most comfortable with using themselves. Consulted counter-formations table and eliminated 4-3N-3 on the basis that Level 26 strikers are not for striking, so plumped for 3N-2W-3N-2 Defensive Hexagon. Defence played a blinder, especially DC/DL Mohamed Monney playing out of position at DML, restricting the home side to 3 on-target shots and left 'keeper Jose Maria Rojo to successfully deal with those. MoM was Team Captain MC Mario Dinamarca, his second free-kick was deflected into the net off the head of striker Mehmet Serif for the only goal of the match.
Any formation or tactics advice given is based purely on experience with my teams...
