Can't beat the big 3!

[MattGraham16]

Hi,
Im playing as Arsenal in my second season (3rd in 1st season and won EURO and Leauge Cup). In my second season I am a title challenger again but my main downfall is i dont pick up enough points against Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea. If I get a couple more wins a season against these Ill most probably win the title.

I play 4-2-3-1 and usually play slightly attacking, should i go more defensive, and if so how much, or should I adopt a completely different tactic for these games?

Help will be much appreciated.!
Matt.

nah go attacking, because if you go defensive you are just inviting them to just hammer you all over the pitch. When i play the big 3 teams when i was arsenal i usually get marcos senna sitting just infront of my back4 giving them abit support then fabregas more attacking when you get the ball.

if you got a player like senna get him to do what i do and get him to play a more disciplined role to get him staying in that area so dont give him any creative freedom! the only player you do give freedom to is fabregas(your playmaker)

get your wingers 'MR' and 'ML' and go on their PI's(Player Intruction) and tick 'Marking' and 'Tight Marking' which makes them track back and helps your full-backs out abit becuase when your full-Backs come across c ronaldo, babel, j cole, quaresma they need all the support they will need.

when i used them ive got all 15 points in all top 3 games
