Can anyone help me with this formation http://prntscr.com/h32tqb ? I need help with orders + arrows. :confused:
It looks similar to a 3-2-2-2-1 butterfly. It's strong!
I would try some sorte of 4-4-1-1, 4-2-3W-1 or 4-3N-2W-1, attacking, down flanks, low pressure, short pass, zonal marking.
Put upper arrows on DL, DR, ML, MR. You gotta beat him down flanks, since his defensive middle has a lot of players.
Faced the same in cup and got destroyed with 3W-DMC-2MC-3W-1. What do your think of 4-2-2-2 hexagon for this (short/flanks) ?Quote:

The opponent changed everything for the 2nd half, scored a goal and the match ended 2-1. I think this 4-2-2-2 Hexagon is similar to the 4-2-3-1 i played, so i hope it works and u qualify to the finals :)
Unbelievable ! Could not score a goal in 2 games against this weaker oppo. Can't remember something like this happenening to me. On top of that, he dominated both games. Cannot think of a solution to this issue...
Maybe your team is under some "crisis". You cant score now but next season u play same oppo and win easily. How?!?. i believe that the system attributes us a performance ratio for some sequence matches. My team use to play with low performance after winning some trophies. Maybe thats what could explain:/
Hmm! Maybe but usually in "crisis" time you dominate and still lose. In this case, I was outrageously dominated and the loss fully deserved. I recently noticed that defensive tactic have the edge over other ones. I beat a monster in asso paying defense all the game. This is not normal I think.
Whenever I face weaker teams they always switch to this formation. Basically it's a classic parking the bus strategy. Nowadays I have really learnt how to tame this formation.
I always go for 3N-1-2(MC)-2(AML-AMR)-2. But here the key is, you have to press high and always go for Short passes and play wide if not down both flanks. I.e. make sure you avoid playing down the middle.
When I faced last time, it was in the league and I smashed the opponent 6-2. 😀.!!!
Thanks for your imput. Nevertheless, I am a bit doubtful as your tactic offers wide open space to their attacking midfielders. The oppo I mentioned is about to win the treble and I do not think I would run away with a 6-2 victory! Anyways, if play him again, I'll give a chance to your option.Quote:

If I get through my CL semi. He's been shaken a lot by a 4-3W-1-2 for some reason. Tactic I cannot play...Quote:

I faced this formation in associations today. Not sure if this is the best counter, but I won both with 4-5-1v. Changed to 3w-5-2v in 2nd half of 1st leg. Scores were 3-0 and 1-0 (I added a 2nd after he changed the tactic.
Attacking/flanks/short/off/low/normal/m2m/on.
I did switch back and forth between high and low press in 1st leg. 2nd leg, low pressed all match. Opponent attended only 2nd leg. Opposing association is a platinum with 1716 points currently but I'm pretty sure they exploited the draw for awhile.Quote:

I've played this formation too and I have to say: It was working quite well
Results:
2nd in League
3rd in Cup
2nd in CL
And also I've thrown teams away with a better quality than me.
Since the new update and the fact that I cant change my def orders it is poor......
Hello how i can beat team with 3_3_3_1 formation
4 ( DL, DC, DC, DR ) - DL & DR arrows up, both DC's - arrows downQuote:

AML + AMR - Neutral ( no arrows )
AMC/ST - arrow DOWN
Defensive, Mixed, Short passing, No counters
Low press, Easy/Normal tackling ( avoid booking ), Zonal ( condition wise & player role wise ), No offsides.
Bonuses :
1st half ONLY def !!!
2nd half - Posession
Step 2 : Be patient and don't rush. You win, as he gets a lot of yellow cards = more Free kicks for you.
P.S. If oppo is stronger ( 5-10+ % ) - stick on Hard def + Mixed Passing instead of short.
Proven strategy vs 17% stronger than me ( 127 % ) and he was online.
Luck is involved here too, as we all know there is the almighty RNJessus :)
Or, you can go with my fav. - 4-5-1V motivated :) Oh ye, it does wonders, with propper instructions and timing + training :)
