Well in my most recent game I played 2 defenders, 1 DMC, 3 in the middle and 4 attackers. (2,1,3,4) They basically had 4,4,2.

Given that my opponent was half my stats in all areas across the field, I figured I would win the midfield battle and have lots of scoring shots ... which I did, they just didn’t score. Their 3 star striker beat my 6 star goalie with such few opportunities.

I’m now trying 4,1,2,2,1 ... more defensive focused which seems counterintuitive given how much better my players are than theirs ... :/
