Best 4-2-3-1 formation

Description
Can beat almost anyone. With Atlético, have historic wins over Barca, Real Madrid (multiple times), PSG and even Bayern Munich, the 'best team in the world' (3-0 UCL final). Screenshots of those matches are included above. Against the big teams you won't dominate possession but you do stop them having shots on goal, check the stats above. For example, in UCL final, Bayern Munich had only 1 shot on target against me! That never happens in real life. For this formation to be used to full effect, you need decent and creative midfielders, especially in AMC - I recommend Max Meyer who I got for £10m which is a bargain considering he is the best wonderkid/player in that position imo. Have used this formation since FM 2011 (obviously I've adjusted it slightly each year) and it hasn't failed me yet! Feel free to ask any questions and I'll try my best to reply ASAP

That's great! Just tried it out on PSG and it works perfectly....
One problem though
My team is conceding a lot.... There are games that I win 5-3 etc.

For the winger/inside forwards, I tell them to cut inside get forward whenenver possible try killer balls and run with ball often. For AMC, try killer balls get forward whenever possible simple passing move into channels. RCM, simple passing killer balls switch ball to other flank. LCM, simple passing dictate tempo. ST, run with ball through centre, move into channels, if its a player with good strength like drogba or lukaku then shoot with power if not place shots but thats up to you. RB/LB get forward whenever possible run with ball down right/left mark opponent tightly

I don't have an assistant manager so I can't really help you out sorry about that

Press Subscribe above, then open FM onto your save. Press FM on the top right corner and click on downloads. A window will open, press Steam Workshop and the click on Install. After open your tactics page and add a new tactic. You'll then find this tactic under archived tactics called "4-2-3-1 wide"
