Hi I tried the formation and loss any why the match I think the game is corrupt
Well isn’t just the formation, is also your squad, players perfomances, quality difference, etc.
If you lost really all games, I doubt is because of formations.
im level 48,every season i update my team United 99,buy lot of token buy good quality players even everytime i buy scouts player but did not winning anything..play against the more weaker team also sometime lost..with good training everyday,good morale and condition and using the good formation i think this is unfair game..the opponents also did not see the game and some of them never update their team but still can win?..come on guys..im tired of this hopeless game..they pick winner randomly..
Maybe because you use your money but not you brain :’D
if you have a 6% bonus on all stats u are highly likely to win. And money isn’t the answer to winning every season. How did Leicester City F.C. win the Epl, they only had 10 million budget but still won. Always play importance to players skills and stats, if u don’t you are basically a blind person with tons of money but no talent. Use ur brain not money.
in reality teams with the money win most cl is each and every year the same boring shit real barca ,munich,psg smaller teams no change
your comparison to leicester happens once in 25 years
in foortbal money rules nowadays thats it except a few exceptions once in a while
you said 6% ??? but the most higher bonus trainning is 10%, can toy please help me to understand you.
its true it appened to me

Hi, nice to see others posting about Top Eleven, if you want us to advertise your website let us know, is totally free!
Yes, Why not. Let’s do it.
it’s just a question how it is possible that a team is 13 of the league and he is cup winner and clock winner ??? and he even saw the games??? ty
he don’t watch the games
maybe he had a beast team the previous season and this season he just saves the money and tokens
@ Bayram, you are right, the game is corrupt. I had two different teams in two different devices and decided to play a friendly match with my one level lower team, at the end of the match both teams showed as winners ?
Can you guys please update the formations

Hi, Just won a game against 4-5-1 V style today against mine 4-3-3 formation (not to forget, I missed 2 penalties). The opponents team was 100% while mine is close to 95%. In 2nd leg (I am away), think I would need a different attacking formation. I was thinking of 3-1-3-1-2 formation Hard Attacking style. Please can anyone help me in advising the tactics?
My team rating is 88% but I do beat 4-5-1V teams that is rated 112% or above with ease, it’s simple, use 4-1-2-1-2 Diamond Narrow, or 4-1-3N-2. Mentality Hard defense, offside trap on, counter attack on, man to man, hard tackle, then let your fullback attack from the wide by giving them green arrow up. For me, I find more fun in playing teams that is more stronger than mine because I know they must attack then I punish them always.
Amazing . Help me a lot . But can you guys tell me how to counter formation 4-1-1-3w-1 ? Thanks
what of 3N-2dml n dmr-1mc-1amc-3str… I have a slightly better team
Use 3DC 1DML 1 DMR 1MC 1AMR 1AML 2 ST
DC arrow down
DML and DMR arrow up
MC depends on the gane whether u want to score more or defend against opponet from scoring..
Rest of the team arrow up
Pressing high
Attacking
Down both flanks.(works most of the time)
Marking zonal
Play offside trap on
Force counter attack on
If u have a play maker and dribbler in DM or MC then u have 99% winning against most teams..
I started with the 32221 formation ans was 2nd in the league..the next season i changed to the above mentioned formation and i hav won a triple..its the 5th season now and my formation hasnt changed since winning the triple crown…
Why do i have so many friends? SIKE i dont 🙁
well actually maybe cause ur gay?
LMFAO I AM TOOO

What is the most appropriate tactics against a team that concentrates its players on attack?
The other team uses 3N-1(MC)-4(AML,AMC,AMC,AMR)-2 and I was defeated by 5-1 using 4-5-1 V Style. The teams are very similar (mine is 103,8% and the other 101.4%). I used also high pressure to avoid the ball to reach the attacking players.
Any suggestions?
Thank you

If you want to work out a counter formation based on my experience do this (zonal / man marking)
3x ST – 5defenders cover (zonal)
2x ST – 4defenders cover (zonal)
1x ST – 3DCs covers (zonal)
AMC – DMC covers (zonal/man)
AML/AMR – dml/dmr covers (zonal/man)
2x MC – 4midfielders cover (zonal)
3x Midfielders – 5 midfielders cover (zonal)
4x midfielders – 4midfielders cover (man)
To attack there defensive players
1x DMC – amc (zonal/man)
2x DMC – 2 amc (man) or amc/l/r (zonal)
3 defenders – 3 strikers (man) or 2xST (zonal)
4 defenders – 2 ST (wingers and/or amc attacking arrows)

I’ve followed this guide and it’s absolute crap. The game is definitely corrupt and will select the winning side before play. The developers says it’s not fixed but they lie.
Ignore this crap!

Can someone explain what mean ‘N’ or ‘W’ pls
N is from narrow and W is from wide and if you want to make a better idea of 4-4-2 classic one is more a W formation and 4-1(dmc)-2-1(amc)-2 is a narrow one.
IGNORE……it’s a fixed platform.
are there any new note for formation and counter firmation?
Nice work but I need update to counter this formation everytime I play with this guy I at best condition just draw so I should beat him his formation as in top eleven screen
