As the title says, I'm really struggling against teams that play 5-3-2 and 5-2-3.

I'm in second season with Aston Villa and had great success in season one using "Legano 4-1-2-3" from the tactics pages here and came 3rd in the league but I've always struggled against, in particular, Wolves and Bournemouth.

I've tried playing wider and using 2 up front as well as just playing a very deep counter attack in order to nullify their counter attacks but it hasn't worked very well

Any tips on how to set up to counter these formations would be appreciated

Thanks
