I find the best way to counter big teams is playing with control/attacking mentality and simply out numbering them in the center of the pitch. I play 1 ATB with Ajax, but have 3x CM and 1xAM and usually destroy bigger teams (atleast on possesion, shots etc). Mixed passing, but switch to short if you are struggling to keep above 45% possession.

Unfortunately I won't share my full tactic as I will be using it for future challenges. My post above should be enough to go on

In my new Spurs save， I am testing 352. It works when I meet Man City, Liverpool which use 41221.

I leave their AMR/AML free and use my DW to mark their FBs.

Question 1 - would you accept a draw, or do you expect a win each time?!

Question 2 - what are you trying to do / what kind of tactic do you want … ?

• e.g. an intense press - try to stop the opposition from passing / having possession … or … 
• e.g. all men behind the ball - let them have possession, but not let them have good quality chances …

Question 3 - what are your attacking strengths / how do you want to score?

• e.g. you’ve bought a strong target man upfront + have two good wingers for a crossing game … or …
• e.g. you bought pact strikers and credible midfielders for a passing / through ball game …
• e.g. you have bought no-one, so are relying on Adams + Armstrong upfront to score goals.

A lot depends on what you’re aiming for, what style you want + what players you have now.
