Prem formations? against the bigger teams

[Goldsbury27]

I've played 5 games with Peterborough in the Prem 1st season in prem.

Won= 2
Drawn=1
Lost=2

I have lost heavily to Man United and Spurs.
Against Man U i play 4-5-1 and ended up loosing 4-0 so when i played Spurs i thought i would try 4-4-2 and still ended up loosing 3-0.

Can anyone advise me of any formations I can play against the bigger teams to get some better results. I played 4-3-3 in the championship and won the league but obviously can't get away with it in the Prem. I play 4-3-3 against the smaller teams and usually win or draw.

Cheers JG

If you think you're going to get results against big teams in the first season in the Prem, then you need to have a reality check. Try going ultra-defensive and hitting them on the counter. Crowding the midfield could be also a treat.

Well i dont expect to be beating the big teams but from the first 2 i have played i have been beaten heavily so just needed some advice to set my team up to defend and maybe ****** a few draws now and then...

Also check the pre-match advice for where to put your defensive line, how wide to play and tempo, then make sure your not playing offside because they will be able to exploit that, and have counter attack ticked.
