i dont like playing 4-4-2 but its better in passing game

[JAY ZO]

against weak opponents, its fine to play wing play. however its harder to put all players in correct position. if you have good wingers and good midfield, best option is always 4 3 3

[dyrek]

3 4 3 is a must try for everyone who havent tried it yet

[JAY ZO]

@dyrek
It depends on a few stuff

[Jefferson Keane]

is there aynone play 5-2-3 b and won the title?

[JAY ZO]

@Jefferson-Keane
Playing with it for the entire season, i don’t think.
But yeah, would have played it a few times, i myself did it against the stronger managers when i won the league a while back.

[joaot2003]

My team has 119 overall and his team has 112.
Playing against 433b wingplay.
Should I play 433A or 433B (since im playing home and i want to win) or should i play a counter tactic like 523A counter attack (even though i have a better team)

Pls tell me the most essential game plan for 3-5-2 who played a lot with successful tips after game (3-4 times min tactic "loving the tactic")

I’m playing 4-3-3A in the Premier League. My opponent is much stronger than me and is also using 4-3-3A.
My opponent is stronger than me in every area — forwards, midfield, and defense.
My own forwards and defense are slightly strong, but still weaker than my opponent’s.
What kind of tactic should I follow?

[JAY ZO]

@nooböm
4-5-1, or 5-3-2.
Shoot on sight.
No offside.
Zonal marking.
Tackling: according to ref.
Line tactics: in their normal position.
Sliders: tempo: 65.
Both others on 45.
Can’t guarantee a win…
In the worst case scenario you’d lose by a small margin.

@JAY-ZO isn´t better 5-2-3 counter attack?

[JAY ZO]

@Kauan-Kroos-10
I think its pretty much equal

🧠 Tactics

Game Plan:
️ Use Wings

Style:
️ Attacking (71)

Pressure:
️ Play Close to Opponent (75)

Tempo:
️ High Speed Passing (79)

Tackling:
️ Normal

Marking:
️ Zonal Marking

Offside Trap:
️ No

Line Instructions

Forwards: Attack only

Midfielders: Keep position

Defenders: Stay back

Why This Works

Very strong wing play with fast wingers

Central striker (Haaland) finishes everything

Balanced midfield keeps possession and blocks counters

Defense stays disciplined, no offside trap risk

High tempo breaks weaker teams easily

This tactic worked against both weaker and strong opponents, and I rarely had to change anything.

If anyone wants:

Match-specific tweaks

Away game adjustments

Counter tactics vs 4-4-2 / 5-3-2
Just ask

Good luck managers!
