I actually think thats pretty cool (I call it "the scissors formation"), I wish I had players like that at that quality (both 6 stars, on has shadow striker). Unfortunately, I dont have an DR/DMR so I cant adapt my defense to that flexibility, plus Id need pretty good reactions for that, as he can swap as often as he wants.

Will man-on-man marking help against those formation swaps?
This is a quite "thin" formation. I believe a simple 4-4-2 or 4-1-4-1 could break it down. Remember to always have +1 midfielder then your opponent to gain possesion. Also avoid playing with a AMC since he is playing with a DMC (I rather put a xtra MC or ST).
