Thanks for the image with additional bench info.

If deciding on only quality, like Sillybq as mentioned, 4-2M-3-1 attacking middle seems the most logical option for you. Your setup is definitely spot on.

If I were your opponent, looking at your squad (with the limitations of your first-11 having no natural 3 MCs or ML/MC/MR combinations), I would also use his same 3-1DM-3W-3 against you attacking flanks with 3vs on both sides. Your CL match will likely be one with lots of shots and even perhaps a cricket score if both sides are taking chances. Just a bit worried if your 2MC midfield could hold out in case either get an early yellow though.

With the added bench, you are definitely correct to train up the AMC with the MC position, but should complete it at the start of next season with greens if you could save up from now. Your DMC/MC could then stay at MC for a 4-3-2w-1 or move back to become a typical 4-5v-1.

All the best of luck there!
