4-2-2-2 Best Counter

[-mixedchoice-]

I usually use this formation to beat the stronger team. You can try it if you have some problems to beat aggresive opponents.

set to 4-2-2-2
-the key is in the front line. Pick the best pacey strikers in the front area, set they role to attacking complete forward and advance forward/ poacher. swap their position. (it makes opponent DF hard to marking them)

-in the middle area.. use 1 supporting deep lying playmaker, supporting ball winning midfield (set they through ball to often), supporting defense midfield, and defending defensive midfield.

-in back line area, use 2 automatic full backs and 2 centre backs.. (you can change they role into 1 stopper ball playing defender and 1 covering centre back)

Team Instructions:
Basic:
Philosopy: Rigid
Phrases: Defensive

Advanced:
Tempo: More Direct
Creativity Freedom: More Disciplined
Closing Down : Stand-off More
Crossing: Float Cross
Tackling: More Cautious
Focus Passing: Through the middle
Roaming: More Roaming

TRY IT!

and sorry, i forgot to tell about the MOST important thing... you need to activate the counter attacking move. (if you don't do that, your players will always try to standing off at the backlines and making some useless clearence)
