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

[Matteo de Clemente]

Hi,I find this table quite useful,though incomplete versus some formations (hortodox or not).

Moreover,I think it means a way to counter your opponent strength points,exploiting his own holes,but it's not an universal rule.

You are supposed to have a formation able to perform countering activity in the best way,but you have to choose right orders and may have to find alternatives if you realize something doesn't fit with your players.

For example,I've always countered 4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond , according to table, with 4-5-1 v-style. This season I constantly have problems with such a countering formation because of AML and AMR no good performances.

So,I'm trying with 3-1-4-2, but I'm not convinced yet,expecially vs stronger teams. I think I'll try my defensive 3N-3W-2-2, so to limit damns coming from opponent counterattacks.

In Cup matches it's working vs many other kinds of strong opponents;while my next Cup opponent plays narrow diamond formation....
