add two cents in topic. counter for 3N-2(DML/DMR)-2-1-2 could be 4-1DMC-3W-2. i used it only once at away game. normal tracking, mixed passes, pressure on own half, red arrows on dl,dr,mr,ml. both managers were wathcing game (+5 for home team), but my team was a little better (39 vs 41). score 1-5, i won. stats for game - ball possession 45-55, shots 13-23, shots on target 14-7, and 3-7 for corners.
another tactic that never mentioned - 3N-DMR/DML-1MC-AMR/AML-2. i tried 3N-4-1-2. home game. my team was again little better (41vs38). normal tracking, mixed passes, pressure on full field. stas for game - ball possession 60-40 (he didn't show up), shots 15-13, on tagret 9-6, 7-2 for corners.
third tactic i found hard to counter - 4-2DMC-1-AMR/AML-1. almost same quality for both teams, 1/8 stagee of cup. home game was first, and i used 4-4-2, won 2-1, but second goal was at the end of match. normal tracking, mixed passes, pressure on full field. some stats - ball possession 54-46 (both managers was wathing geme, so i had 5% due to my stadium), shots 9-12, on target 5-5, 5-6 for corners. at away game i played 5-2MC-AMR/AML-1, normal tracking, long passes, pressure on own half, won 0-2. stats - 48-52 (+5 for him due stadium), stots 7-19, ot target 3-11, corners 6-4. so i find that 5-2-AMR/AML-1 more usefull that 4-4-2, and if you playing against that tactic, i'd recomend play this way.
and last hint, that i found wery helpful, if you playing against weaker team, that using 4-4-2. it could be easily beaten by 4-3W-1-2. normal tracking, mixed passes, pressure on full field, red arrows on dl,dr,mr,ml. if difference between to team more than 5-7, scores would be 6-0 or much bigger. it helps when goal difference could effect at final placece in league. for example once i beat some team 12-0 in the end of season, and it hepls me to get in champions league next season. sorry for bad english, hope my thought and experience will help someone
any idea how to play against 3w-1-3w-1-2? have no clue tried a practice match with a friend he had his first team on field around 20 q i had my reserves with this formation and i won...had a player eliminated too...he played 4-4-2...i will meet this formation and i do not know how to counter it
I miss one formation which I face today in CL - maybe anyone has some suggestions or experiences on how to beat this:
4-1(DMC)-3(AML/AMC/AMR)-2 - no MC/ML/MR
Because of this offensive type of formation I'm thinking about the following formation for this match:
4-2(DMC)-2(MC)-1AMC-1ST
Please comment if you have any other suggestions.
i played that formation once in my league the guy has 26q i have only 17 and i beat him 2-1 at my home with 4-1-3w-2 defensive mixed...mixed passing and counter on hard tackling...with that formation he beat everyone else in my league till now and scored 70 goals allready...hope it helps i will play it the same when i face him again need a win so i can win the league

Hi there,
I'm having, sort off the same problem in my league... he is using quite the same formation.
He is playing with 4-1-2W(ML-MR)-1AMC-2.
He's winning every single game, 5-0 or even with 11-0.... til now he only lost one game(against me) and we are already at the 19 round of the league.... i outplayed him with a 4-1-4-1, at half time i changed to 4-5-1 V-style. but i only won it for 2-1...
I urgently need help to find a formation to play against him.
