Need Guide and How To's about Countering Formations

[Marc Symons]

Thanks for the reference, already read that though. i just want to know the basics as how it should be done

anyway, thanks for that info, will keep it in mind

Totally agree with LittleDude072 - In my experience counter formations don't work. Alot of people swear by them but Nordeus themselves have never confirmed counter formations actually work.

My tip would be: If you are facing tougher opposition change tackling to HARD as this can intimidate opposition. Also change to ATTACKING. You will lose more condition and the hard tackling could result in more Yellow/red cards but it is very good for that one game you desperately want/need to win

As for Tactics - Its about experimenting to see what works best for you and then sticking with it. People often make the mistake of changing a formation/tactics if the lose one match but a team needs to learn how to play with certain formations and the best way for that to happen is to stick with one. Simpler formations like 4-4-2 and 3-5-2 are very effective in general. In my experience the more i messed around with formations and tactics the worse i did. So now i stick with everything as it is apart from mentality which is always ATTACKING. I win nearly every game even against my tougher opponents. I have played 4-4-1-1 since last season and am current 'treble winners' and am still in all competitions this season.

Everyone has a different opinion on how to be successful and this is simply my two pence worth, hope you find what works for you
