Is it Latin? I know they used V instead of U. ;)

i think i tried 4-5-1 V in my first game against that formation and did not do as well. That is not to say that it will not work, but that formation is very weak in the middle, with only one DC and one MC. i think wingers are rendered moot, but with 2 STs and 3 MCs, you will overpower him up the middle. His formation takes away the wing play, so again, I recommend up the middle, mixed passing, no counter, no offsides. I have only lost once against this formation and that was before I went with the 4-1-3N-2. I went up against a team of mega scouts and eked out a 0-0 result with this formation.

Of course, if you lose...its not my fault. :rolleyes:

Today, I logged in to set my team up for the match, sat here and watched them lose 1-0. 74% possession, 12 shots on target, and we flicking lost. My players hate me, I'm going to quit.[/rant]

Thank you for reading.

perhaps, your players were being nervous when you watch them :p

Someone explain me this: draw against him. note he has a 24-27 defence (my players range from 44 to 54)

don't make me laugh.... i begun with 3-1-4-2 then i switched to that formation..... had 10 shots on targets and only one goal against that crappy team... this is the 6 time i draw against similar opponents this season

didnt say it was deserved just saying his tack tick cancels out your front 3

the funny thing is that a 3-1-4-2 down both flanks didn't do anything, then, when i changed to 3-1-3-2-1, i scored.... tactics here meaning nothing

Besides the overall mismatch in quality in your favour, I would have gone with 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly instead as that is the better formation vs his formation. but yes, you SHOULD have won. Put it down to him just having a good day with the infamous Nordeus Game Engine (NGE).
