Or possibly trying to out number him in midfield by the 3-2-2-2-1 Butterfly?

Butterfly:

-----ST-----
AML----AMR
--MC--MC--
DML----DMR
-DC-DC-DC-

Sometimes All-Out attack isn't the answer, but whatever you do, hes going to surely be playing counter attack, he's got the 3-0 lead and doesn't need to take risks, Chances are your going to need to play Normal Mentality with Long Balls, Pressing: Own Half, Zonal Marking, Normal Tackling and Attacking the flanks.

4-5-1 is one of the options I was considering also, together with Attacking, Down both flanks, Offside trap (far good my defenders to his attackers), Mixed Passing, Normal tackling or Easy.... my big ? is regarding pressing... Own field or All field.

Butterfly is also a good option too, with same tactics as above: Attacking, Down both flanks, Offside trap, Mixed Passing, Normal Tacking, All Field...

I know I have very low chances to repair the 3-0 loss, but I don't quit so easy.
In second half I will put an AMC and one more ST, with short passing and hard attacking, offside, all field marking

I know he plays on the wings and for sure he will use defensive+counter.

How to think about Man Marking?
