Next time play through the middle, short passing.

In the Championship I play against 4-3W(ML-MC-MR)-2N(AMC)-1 ..

I want to use 4-4-2 ... but I'm not sure

What do you think ?

I don't know, I don't use it but it's becoming more popular.

4-5-1 Flat or 3W-2(DMC)-3N-1-1 ('Tower') are the 'official' counters for that formation. 4-4-2 Classic will give a slightly more offensive formation but looks like it might do the job. I might be tempted to start with the Classic but be prepared to move to 4-5-1 if things start going pear-shaped...

But ... what orders ?

[Stefanut Stefanut]

I will go with 4-5-1 V-Style next cup match , and I''ll use :

Normal
Down Both Flanks
Low
Normal
Mixed
Zonal
Counter ON

Do you think I can beat him ?

Depends upon your relative strength and his orders. With 4-5-1V I tend to use long passing, as usually there's a few midfielders that need to be circumvented - clear the ball quickly and get it as far up the field as possible. You'll need pretty good (and fast) wingers, though.
