Any ideas how to set up for return leg?

[reddeviljohn]

Just lost 1st leg of champs league 1-2, my Q is 74 and their's is 72 and my orders were attacking, mixed, own half, normal, mixed, zonal, counter. they played 4-3W-1-2 and I played 4-5-1V but after going 2 down early changed to 3W-1-2N-3-1 and changed again to 3W-1-1-3-2 and unchecked counter. So how should I set up for return leg?

I narrowly lost to 4-3w-1-2 using 4-5-1v and he had 6 star players as he was a Level above me.

Don't quote me on this but if I ever come across this formation again, I'd want to go with 4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond.

Logic.

I suppose that would give me more firepower whilst cutting down my width!

How about 3-5-2v formation?

[reddeviljohn]

Thx DV8R, I'll give it a try!

[Razz]

Just bad luck. You had twice as many shots, twice as many on target, and just didn't connect. Only weird thing is the possession - you should have had 60%+ ...
I'm inclined the way DV8R is .. except I'd go with an AMC instead of a second striker, and I'd attack the middle.

4-3W-1-2 is the most overpowered formation in T11, alongside 4-3W-3.

The 3N-1-3W-1-2 is getting quite common. You see it every season, token buyers using the same formation as the next guy.

4-3W-1-2 is the most overpowered formation in T11, alongside 4-3W-3.

I tried 4-3W-1-2 in the past and thought it was good at first, but then it turned terrible for me and haven't used it since.

Thanks for everyone's input, I actually ran the 3-5-2V this morning against a 3* team in my league with the same formation, I won 0-2 but first half I barley had any shots!
