I play with a 4-3-1-2 formation (3 central mids) so my approach to matches is quite narrow with shorter passing.
I have been doing quite well with it, but when I come up against a wider formation, or one that uses AML/AMR, i tend to struggle more than usual.
How can I go about countering such a formation with my own 4-3-1-2?
How can opposition instructions help me with the wingers?
An obvious answer would be to counter it with a wider tactic/formation myself, but what if I do not have the players in my squad to utilise a wider tactic/formation for these occassions???
One tactic/formation that gives me particular trouble is the 41221 (1 dm, 2 cm's, 2 wingers, forward).
