I am round 120%. Opposition is 110%. Both are winning leagues, and thus, mostly active. Both level 6. I on one hand have a dubious record of losing 5 finals, winning only 1, losing 3 back to back finals last season and the season ago.
Opposition plays,
4 4 1 1
Striker amc and his winger cum ml has scored quite a lot.
I play
4 2 3 1 normally, but this season am playing 3 4 2 1 with good success after 2 successive troll results. My 2 wingers and striker are my primary source for goals, and I don't have a real good AMC. I have a 18 y o 103 rated DMC though, but his performance card in league and CL has mostly 7s, with 1 or 2 8s.
I also have a spare DC 19 y o 105% but again his performance hasn't been that great
My queries
1. Can I start with attacking- mixed - short pass - off counter - zonal - hard - offside on?
2. Should I change to some other formation?
I must play my 3 goalscorers coz they are kind of my sole outlets for goals but they are very erratic. Its mostly hattricks or zilch from them, except my LW.
3. Till now whenever I played defensive I have lost. There's something bugging my team too, in recent weeks they tend to miss a lot of 1 on 1s just like that. Even after 5 rounds of shooting technique and 1 on 1 finishing today they did the same, although they managed to bang in 5.
4. Should I watch the match or leave it? Having lost 5 finals already I am just kind of done with deja vu of another failure.
