If you are confident that your team is stronger go with 4-3-3 A wide play too, don't change it!!!

Zonal, offside off 72 / 84 / 66 easy f**ing win bro ;).

Hello guys,

How can you beat a 4-5-1 SOS and the team is quite equal to mine .

THanks.

@NoobSkill3d 433A WP, zonasi, no offside, 51/72/68

Can someone explain how these two affect each other? I don't clearly understand how my players act on the pitch? For example, I play 4-5-1 formation, I set mentality to balanced 45, what happens if I set pressing 90 or 50? What will be different? What will going to happen on the pitch? Can someone explain this as if I was watching a live TV match?

Tomorrow I play against a team who plays 442B , passing game, zonal marking and offside trap.
I play at home and have the better team.
How do i counter this tactic?

Generic_Manager

Is 343B WP also good against 433A WP? What else should i try playing if not? My team slightly better, neutral ground (Winners Cup final), i'm using training camp and theyre not

If you keep a balanced mentality, then you will have a balanced mentality — that means that your players will play more carefully. If you maintain a balanced mentality and then you go for a high pressing, your team will maintain the balanced mentality but the pressing will be higher. This has benefits and risks at the same time, for example your players could get injuried, or they'll definitely get a yellow card, even if your Style of Play is "Normal" for example.

To explain this as you were watching a real match on TV, would be like, Newcastle vs. Man City.

Newcastle is fairly a weaker team, however they don't wanna risk a lot by pressuring the opponent so they just play a balanced game, with not a lot of pressure. This way, depending on how the game develops Newcastle could potentially get a win.

Is 3-4-3 B WP good against 4-3-3 B PG ?

If your team is better then it has the potential to work. If your team is weaker, and the opponent is way much stronger than your team, then you should definitley counter the 4-3-3 B with 5-3-1-1

5-3-1-1
Counter-attack
Zonal
Offside trap: NO
25 / 34 / 75,
Style of play has to depend on the referee color, I guess you know that already.
Your attackers need to Attack Only
Midfielders need to Support the Defense
Defenders need to stay back

This way, worse case scenario you'll definitely get a draw, or even a potential win.

Hi Guys!
Tonight i'm playing away against a team who plays 4-4-2B WP.
His team is slightly better then me. 430M. me and his team 523M.
The first game, when i played at home ended in a draw. 1-1.
I was playing 4-4-2B PG, zonal marking, offside yes, 69/68/53 in that game.
His stadium level is 1.

Do you have any reconmondations for tonights match?
TY!

If you wanna take a risk, and if you are confident enough that you have decent attackers, you could always take the risk and hit him up with

4-3-3 B, | Passing Game | Zonal, Offside Off | 72 / 84 / 66

However, if you don't feel like taking any risks, you definitely could go with a more defensive tactic, which with that team of yours, is definitely going to get you a draw or maybe a potential win as well! I'm talking about 5-3-1-1 Counter-Attack:

5-3-1-1
Counter-attack
Zonal
Offside trap: NO
25 / 34 / 75,
Style of play has to depend on the referee color, I guess you know that already.
Your attackers need to Attack Only
Midfielders need to Support the Defense
Defenders need to stay back

4-3-3 A WP can be countered with 4-3-3 B PASSING GAME if you are confident enough that you have decent attackers that might do the trick for you. Also the Training camp is going to help you a lot, so I definitely recommend you to do that.

Generic_Manager

@Joe-McNorthMan can you pls give me details (like sliders)? thanks a lot
or do they not matter

Joe McNorthMan

@Generic_Manager

Oh hell yeah they do, from time to time I use this, it usually works 70% of the time but you have to understand there's many other factors in play here...

Good luck

@StarPlayer110

Hey bro, go with 5-3-1-1, you'll definitely manage to get yourself a draw (unless someone in your team is injured or gets a red card). Hell, even a win if you're lucky enough. Lyon is not such a bad team even with its default players. Use this:

5-3-1-1
Counter-attack
Zonal
Offside trap: NO
25 / 34 / 75,
Style of play has to depend on the referee color, I guess you know that already.
Your attackers need to Attack Only
Midfielders need to Support the Defense
Defenders need to stay back

Let me know the results, I'm curious.

Joe McNorthMan

@RonaldMekDonald — considering the fact that Germany is Germany, I would highly recommend you go with a more defensive tactic, which would most likely get you a draw, or eventually a win (since there are many other factors out there that are in play), so for this particular case I am going to recommend you the 5-3-2 Counter-attack.

5-3-2
Counter-attack
Attackers: Attack only:
Midfielders: Protect the defence
Defenders: Stay back
31 | 31 | 69
Man Marking
Offside Trap: NO

Let me know the results, quite curious to know .

@Darko-Totti 4 times stronger than the opponent? This one should be easy. Plus the 5-3-2 is not that functional with SOS, he has to go Counter-attack.

But anyway, you should hit him with a powerful 4-3-3 B, passing game.

4-3-3 B, | Passing Game | Zonal, Offside Off | 72 / 84 / 66

Let me know the results, i'm quite curious!

Joe McNorthMan

@Darko-Totti I wouldn't advise to use 3-5-2.

And I don't know what previous tactics you used but if you claim that your team is 4x more valued than the opponent, I would definitely recommend you the 4-3-3 B. He simply won't do much against you, maybe a draw? But it's highly unlikely.

Make sure your attackers attack only, midfielders stay neutral, and defenders stay back.

Also the style of play has to depend on the referee color, I think you know that already.

Hi guys!

We are playing a battle and there is this guy who always plays 4231 SOS. He has one of the worst teams, but after 6 days, he has won 5 games and tied 1. What can we do against this tactic? Which is the best way to defeat a 4231 SOS?

It seems that neither 352 nor 523 works for the moment... Maybe 442b PG? I don't know...

b-master_NL

@Unayo4 i suggest 442B 50/50/50, zonal and no offside. It worked for me in a crew battle

Joe McNorthMan

@Unayo4 Please, first and foremost let me recommend you from experience to never use 3-5-2, 3-4-3, in Crew Battles, they're some of the worst tactics for the time being in OSM. Especially around Crew Battles because you have 10 days in your disposal, you should either be focusing on going full-attack mode or Counter-attack.

If you claim that he has a team, then you can easily counter him with:

If he's really lucky, then hit him up with a counter-attack tactic, the worse you can do is get away with a draw, which is always better than a defeat.

Joe McNorthMan

Good job.
