With the two banks of four linked by the DMC I think you need to pack out the middle. A play maker in the middle to spread the ball about. From the traditional 4-4-2 formation this means you have to sacrifice either a defender or a forward, and I would opt to lose a defender as the 4-1-4-1 formation relies on the midfield to support the lone striker so I would suggest 3 centre backs 5 in midfield and 2 up front. The midfield can be arranged however your players fit best, so given that you'll have have two wingers they are locked in so you could either have 3 MC, this would pack out the middle of the park giving you a one man advantage in most situations, or 2 MCs and an AMC, here I see the AMC eliminating the DMC and it would attempt to overwhelm that DMC and CBs or play his own game and have 2 MCs and a DMC, which would give your back 3 some cover.
dell's on the right track, but I'd use 3n-0-3n-3w-1, red arrows on the AMC and central MC, blue arrows on the wingers, focus middle, counterattack + normal or defensive.
That will give you a 3-2 advantage in midfield (possession ++) Your wingers will pull off his outside defenders, His DMC will end up splitting coverage between your AMC and MC^, leaving your AMC and striker to exploit the gap between the defenders in the middle.
You only need 3 defenders to counter his lone ST, especially with the midfield advantage of 3 MCs vs his 2. His MR and ML become mostly irrelevant, (and would be partially countered by the blue arrows on your wingers anyway)
