I’m looking for a secondary tactic that is mainly meant for playing away from home against better or similar teams. Currently I’m Tottenham and about to start my second season. Normally I play 4-1-2-3 but although I’ve won both the EPL and the FA-cup I lost quite a lot of points away from home and I lost quite heavily in the CL to Sevilla.
My setup:
Defense: Full backs (Automatic) Defender (Cover) Defender (Stopper)
Midfield: Deep lying Playmaker (defend), Ball winning midfielder (support), advanced playmaker (attack)
Forwards: Winger (attack), Advanced ST, inside forward (support)
To explain, I play a DLP because both Huddlestone and Sissoko have good passing, AP because Modric and VDV seem to be good at that. Not really sure if these work well together, but I guessed the AP can run onto balls of the DLP. Sometimes I play an anchorman, but that seems a waste of the passing ability of both players. VDV and Modric don’t seem to do well as CM attacking.
So what is a good combination of midfielders?
I play one winger because of Bale and he’s very good at that. Like to play with wingers cause I have some decent ones who also seem to perform as inside forwards (expect Bale): Lennon, Afellay, Gebhart, Kadlec.
Anyway any tips on a better strategy away from home would be appreciated.
