Season 39

[July Fourth]

Result just in....

CUP: Balkan Boyz 1 - 2 Villa

The 4-5-1V prooved to be quite ineffective against his 3W-2N-2N-2W-1.. I managed to get a goal by the end after a tactical switch to 4-3N-2W-1 (last quarter). My ST (Jovetić) got injured (concussion, off for 1 day) the first half, so I knew I was fu*ked! ... Also, he wasn´t present at the time which is a funny thing since all CUP games I managed to follow today - were all won by teams/manager who wasn´t present

Formations that use 6 midfielders are the most difficult to come up with a counter for.

Yeah, I was quite unsure which formation to use or go with before the game, and since nobody had any suggestions/advice I just played my cards on the 4-5-1V (probably the last time I use this formation since it never goes my way). Think I´m gonna "copy" his formation in the return and hope for the best. Who knows, maybe I could turn this result over. Return at Wednesday

If you don't know what to do... Just play your own game!!! and playing your own game is often the best strategy and you get more satisfaction winning this way.

Not when your own game is 4-1-2-1-2 clashing on the butterfly.

I am pretty sure tho that his 3 DCs should suffer an amc + 2 STS, and in the end i'd go

DC DC DC
DMR DML
MC MC
AMC
ST ST

wanna go on flanks? meet my defensive wingers. While you do so, i'll go through middle since you miss a DMC, let's see if your 3 man defense can handle it. Most of butterflie have no arrows or reds on the DML/DMR. that might exploit it. To have further dominance at midfield, you can use another MC for a ST going for 3-2W-3-1-1

As for my CUP match, he's going 3-1-4-2. I need to find a good formation in about 1,5 hrs. Any advices or recent experiences?

That would probably work, but I don´t have any DML, just a DMR in my squad... And I don´t wanna buy one just to "have a chance".. Think I´m gonna "copy-paste" his formation and hope for the best, thanx anyway.

When it comes to the 3-1-4-2, I noticed a that a flat 5-3-2 did the trick. (A usual 5/6* team eliminated a T-buyer team with that kind of similar formation).... He probably played defensive, through the middle, longballs/mixed and counterattacks.

Then it´s the 4-1-2-1-2 diamond... But then the % of me being crushed is high for sure since he plays on/through the flanks. Also, this game is getting on my nerv with all injuries, ridiculous results and managers who ain´t present - but manages to win.... In addition, his MC got injured the first quarter and wasn´t replaced, but still he managed to score 2 goals... Despite my 68% ballpossesion and 7/8* players.

Going to sleep, fu*k this sh*tty game
