Sticking To or Changing Lineup

[Citizen Cained]

I build around a 4-5-1 kind of formation. But it's flexible and could easily be converted to 2-5-2-1, 2-3-2-2-1, 2-3-2-1-2, 4-1-4-1, 4-4-1-1, 3-2-4-1, 3-2-2-3, 3-2-2-2-1. Tactics change depending on opposition and formation.

Seems like you much prefer playing one striker. In what situations would you play two? When your opponent only plays 1xCB? Also, I always play 4 at the back so that I’m marking my opponent’s wingers.

I never play 2 STs. Some of those lineups refers to an AMC as the '1' and not a ST meaning I'm playing sans ST. The reason being that an AMC helps out with defensive tasks, which a ST doesn't. So it depends on opposition strength and midfield.

The amount of players in the back line depends on the opponent. If the opponent is playing ST AML AMR I play DL DC DR, if STx2 then I play classic DL DC DC DR with a DMC etc. It really depends on the opposition and whether I want to overcrowd the center or flanks.
