I've been bouncing endlessly between Division 3 and 4. Still to figure out my favourite formation and custom tactics. Had moved away from my 433(5) and 433(2). Had a bit of success with 4411 and 4231(2), but was starting to really struggle to score. Was getting to the stage where if I conceded, I would at best get a draw. This all came to a head last week where I couldn't win a game to save my life. Didn't win for 13 games or so, but turned it around with a bit of playing around with custom tactics, and a return to 433(5). Also have really started to enjoy my 4231 Al Soma team this week and it has got me to the weekend league for the first time. Key to my decent form recently has been that I have started to score more than one goal a game which makes things a bit easier. Starting with attacking mentality from kick off instead of balanced has helped. Seen stuff about balanced being very dodgy on the dark side. I'm not really sure but getting two big strong physical centre backs has also been a vast improvement. You can ease a weaker, much faster attacker off the ball so easily. It's a lot easier being in front by going for it early then playing catchup against a park the bus mass group of auto tackling, auto blocking defenders. For some reason attacking seems less prone to counter attack than balanced.
