Offensive 41221 (or simply 4123)

So basically I got back into the game after months of boredom (I gave up because somehow my current season data reset), and I had a hell lot of tokens to spend. I bought three scout players - Ole Gunnar Solskjær, my striker, David Beckham, my winger, and Paul Scholes, my centre-mid (I renamed them). I also had another good striker from the team before I rejoined the game so I utilized him as a strike partner. I also bought a recommendation player who was an AMR, and rounded up a really good squad with a young 22 year old 77% MC. I don't remember how I got this idea, but it's turned out pretty well for me. Here is the formation I used (and am still using to this day) with my players. (Pardon if it's blurry, had to reduce the quality so it could fit here) Attachment 112828 (Tactics) Attachment 112826
Once I got my 5* eleven up I faced against the leader of the league, Colo Colo (who was also 5*) and defeated them 5-nil. I eventually got more players in so I tried out different formations, but in my new season I now use it more frequently, especially with the CL games (pray for me folks this is my 4th shot on the title). I ended up drawing a game with an even opponent in the CL and winning yet again 5-nil against a 5* league team, who coincidently was the leader of the league at the time.

Anyone have any thoughts on this weird formation? C-:

Positions and weird formations don't matter.
Check the positions of his team and make yours .
You need 3 or 4 defenders and one DMC .

Aight but I have a question - why is DMC so important?

I'm not super good at the game (hence I've never won a CL) but in my league and cup runs I never really used a DMC

reduces the counter attacks and long balls of opponent

Thanks man - I was using a 4-2-2-2 against a 4-1-2-2-1 (with DMC) and I was losing at half-time until I subbed Teddy out for a DMC. I ended up equalizing and scoring a counter in the last 2 minutes!
