How can I not be Wenger?

[cookizzz]

BTW for anyone doubting my tactics, I have 2 Cups and a CL. So I'm not tactically inferior. The thing is, as cookizz said, I drop points against the challengers. How do you all manage to win against the stronger teams?

I just briefly share my approach for your reference.

For matches against teams with similar power, I suggest using your usual tactic, or just being slightly conservative than usual. I don't recommend changing the formation radically if you seldom do so because this may harm chemistry of your team. I prefer watching these matches, and make timely changes to handle well playing players of opponent, or exploiting weakness of opponent.

For matches against teams with similar power, objective is damaging the normal attacking flow of opponent. Defensive formation like 4-1-4-1, 4-5-1, or 3n-2(DMR/DML)-3-2 usually adopted (certainly, the formation is not necessarily symmetric). I will try to put players to mark opponents' star player especially high number scorer. If such player is less active, opponent's ability to score can be greatly reduced. In last 20 minutes, my team may be turned to more attacking to try to steal the game. If my team trailed behind, I will keep patient if there is much time left, but my team will be turned to attacking earlier than usual.

I actually mean playing against stronger team in 2nd case. I am sorry that I find that I recently made even more mistakes than usual on writing replies.

Another season without a league. Ninth season, 0 League titles, 4 Runner up plates. How do you all manage to win leagues? What are your strategies against stronger or equal teams? (since we regularly win 17+ games a season... This season we finished 21-3-2) I also have extremely good players. I play counterattacking 4-5-1V.

i dont know that y u didnt win league titles in previous seasons, but This season your unlucky because u got a one Better opponent than you that u couldn't beat him like me , keep trying....

Honestly the best advice id give is to make it the priority from day one. I lost two leagues by one point beczuse i was paying too much attention elsewhere. Dropping that win and loss on day one or two is what does it.

Im an Arsenal fan, and like most i think its time to go now. We had stadiums and money as an excuse for so long, now Leicester City are so far in front of us i think its tkme to go. Hes ruining his legacy.

You may have to play defensively agaunst the top teams to get the result you want. It will always be hard if they are better then u though.

What seems funny (but understandable of course) in some cases, when it comes to formation, a user who used a formation and had a lot of success of with or thinks so, he thinks that this particular formation is the best or has no counter for it. The same applies to when a user see another user having a lot of success using a particular formation, Of course, there are some formations that can be classified as generally better than others, but best, or even worst, no counter? No counter? LOL. Hahahaha.

4-5-1(V) is a formation that has been mostly successful when the team using it had players superior in quality. This formation is not so good in this game as so many might think it is. Accept it or not, this a fact. The truth is bitter sometimes.

By the way, remember your thread concerning which formation users here think is the best?
