Beat weird 3w-2w-1-2n-2n?

[adifairus]

i don't know what exact formation to counter it.
but guessing from his formation, maybe he will play through the middle to making his AMC and ST effective,
all you need is DMC and DC for defending.

but if he put red arrow on the DML and DMR, he may focus on mixed passing,

in this case, you need DL/DR also

since he doesnt have DMC and only has 1 DC,
i think you should focus attack through middle

he only has 1 MC, so, there is your chance to win midfield battle also.

i guess this is the suitable formation for you,

----------ST----------
--------AMC---------
----MC----MC------
----DMC--DMC----
DL--DC--DC--DR

pur red arrow on your AMC, your AMC and ST can beat his lonely DC

your 2 MC's can win midfield battle.

your 2 DMC's and DC's can block his AMC and ST
make sure to put blue arrow on your DMC so your DMC will always keep on eye of their AMC.

your DL/DR can block his DML/DMR (in case he put red arrow on it)
but make sure don't put red arrow obn your DL/DR. his job just to defend,
no need to help for attack because you will play through the middle

and this tactical will just make his DL/DR has no function at all

Mentality : Normal (you can change to attacking after 30 minutes if your passing complete more than 80%)
Focus passing : middle
Passing style : short
counter attack : OFF

pressing : Low/high
tackling : Normal
Marking : If their ST/AMC are better than your DC/DMC, just play Zonal marking
offside trap : OFF (You has 4 defender, its difficult to execute the offside trap aniway)

by the way, i'm still newbie, don't be mad if you still loosing if using this tactical. heh heh
