    I actually went with a 4-3-2-1 in the first leg, with normal mentality and counter-attacking down the flanks. Wondering if that was too offensive for an away leg?

    It was 3 MCs, 1 AML and 1 AMR and 1 ST. I'm just wondering if I play 4-1-3W-2 and put the 2 widemen to blue arrows, whether that would help as well.

    Some guy I played recently played a strange 3-4-3 formation, it was 3DC but it was also 3MC with a ML.. but i still played my normal tactic and won anyways, Asymmetrical formations have to have some sort of imbalance some where and you need to find it, I wonder in your last game your opponent played with 3 red arrows on his midfield, making him dangerous attacking, counter-attacking and long balls look best for this, there is a "all out attack" option if you need it, since you say your defenders are stronger than his strikers, 3-5-2 or 3-4-1-2 could also be options with red arrows on the wings.
