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

[lisekssj]

Im playing with a guy with similar players today, he is doing very well in his league and his formation is a bit supraise for me,
3N-2DMC-2(MC,MR)-2(AMC,AMR)-ST (3-2-2-2-1),
I want to use 4-5-1 Flat with UP arrows on DR and MR, what do you think guys it will be good tactic against his formation? If you have any other ideas please share them with me

Thanks in advance

1. 4-3n-2w(AML/AMR)-1 Attack/ Mix passing/ Normal Tackling/ Whole Pitch/ Zone Press/ Mix passing/ No counter/ No offside. You have 2 DC vs 1 ST, DL/DR vs ML/MR, 3 MC vs 2 MC, AML/AMR exploit the flanks and 1 ST for goals.

2. 3w-5-2 flat, same orders. You have stronger midfielder, enough defender and 2 ST for more opportunities

3. 3-2-2-2-1 Butterfly Attacking/ Mix passing/ Zone Press/ Own Half/ Mix passing/ No counter/ No offside. It's stronger defender, stronger midfielder and exploit the flanks.

4. 4-2-2-2 Hexagon, same orders with (1), but you need 2 good form MC, or you'll lost possession.

played with n1 and won 2:1 but still not enough. If I played both games with that tactic probably won both. Thanks for the tactics it worked well.

[Myvalentine]

playing against 3w-4-1-2 with narrow diamon , what orders should i set i`m a bit stronger (he`s 51 an i`m 54 star) first leg 0-0 at home and i must win this away match

how to beat 3N-2(DML/DMR)-2-1-2? I know Narrow Diamond works but I dont have AMC. Any other tactics? thanks.

this if your opposition is stronger,he was unbeaten all season only conceded 3 goals ,ive used this counter myself but find it should just be used as a training in your managerial career as by this i should have played a different formation but you also have to factor moral and condition into it,in saying thati still use these myself at times but more for ideas than answers,its hard to factor your teams moral condition plus skills n tactics ,basically,find formations that best reflect on your teams skils

4-5v-1 can beat 5-3-2 with AML/AMR arrows pointed back DMC pointed forward play defensive counter attack and wide flacks ,tackling normal,whole pitch,passing short

Hi Guys,

Any tips on beating a 2cb-3dm wide -1cm - 3Am Wide - 1str

So basically a 2-3-1-3-1

It is in the champions league final in a few hours time and a chance to take my second CL win

The guy is only 13th in his league but easily has the best quality squad in his league (which is weird) and has an average quality of 43 while mine is 39.3.

I learned that in times gone by his formation would be deemed illegal with just 2 defenders but i have since learned that this is not the case anymore.

Any tips on a counter formation and style of play etc would really be appreciated
