Table of Counter Formations v2.0 - Which formation to use?

[Promit Sarjine]

I played 4-4-1-1 and i lost 1-0 away.I just had 1 shot on target.Which formation should i play at home and what tactics should i use? Please reply

Well, 3-1-4-2 is at least more active formation. And you'll have home advantage. Did you follow the macth and change players when they were getting tired? Did you select blue arrows for attacking players? Losing 1-0 is not so bad when playing away against a stronger opponent. There is no right answer here, of course.

How to beat the 4-4-2 classic??My opponent is 52.4 and i am 51.6.And please help with the tactics and orders too.Thank you

4-5-1 v defensive, own half, through the flanks, mixed passing, normal tackling, zonal marking. Counter on offside off.

[Promit Sarjine]

Yeah i watched the match and i substitutes the players as well. Don't know what went wrong.I'll try the 3-1-4-2

Perhaps he had a quality defence and in averege better playes and home advantage...

[Promit Sarjine]

Yeah! I want to win the 2nd leg anyhow

[ulmis]

Attack!

Opponent's quality - 104.8

Mine - 102.8

His also a level higher than me... Ive used many counter formations that did not work, it just depends on how your players adapt to the formation/tactics being used.

Please explain how is it possible to lose to an opponent 8 quality stars lower if Ive got a "quality defence, better players and home advantage"?? As I said, it depends on how your players adapt to the formation/tactics being used and what your opponents tactics are, regardless of how better you are or what advantages you have...

Right, everything counts. Answer is clear, fire your coach
