Season 41

DAMN.... It's best to wait until after the 2nd leg and see how you feel after the result of the 2nd leg, more often than not you will turn over this 2-1.

EDIT: Isn't 3N-1-4-2 the best counter against your opponents formation?

4-5-1v worked for me perfectly in the CL 2 seasons ago, no reason why it failed me today.

My players were bad... Just couldn't find the net and we hardly created chances. This has been going on for some time now! I just haven't hit good form... low scoring wins and now this.

At least this wasn't the CL Final, at least you have 2 days to go away and think about what you can do for the 2nd leg, I was in this position remember last season and I turned it around, I think you will do as well, I'd say 3N-1-4-2 mixed passing and mixed focus and you will be back in business.

i noticed this season that having AML/AMR with reds on isn't anymore remunerating as they are counted totally out when it comes to defending and midfield's numbers. Meaning a 4-5-1 V red arrowed is practically to be considered a 3 man midfield. Makes it your dmc vs his amc, your 2 mcs vs mc, mr, ml for him. Not enough to pull out that idiotic result anyways, but with some trolling, can happen and it sucks.

I replay my advice last time into having MR/ML in your team. Also, he prolly played down flanks as well as you so the ND might have produced occasions but given them out aswell, while the 4-5-1 gave a stalemate at least but with your wingers out of play as if they focused the plays on flanks too, your central mids prolly werent able to prevent them going on flanks hence cutting out your ams.

I strongly advice if not having mr/ml to put on blue arrows while playing through middle (3-1-4-2), that you use the 3N-2W (blue arrowed)-2-1-2 or the 3-2-3-2 to pressure him. I'm pretty sure you'll overwin in the second leg anyways.

3-1-4-2 it is then... Petersen and Nascimento will play OOP
