Full-backs take on part of the attacking tasks and support some much-needed width. Set your left-back and right-back as “Full-back” and “Balance” respectively to support them to advance forward to support the attack and then return to the defensive position.

So in terms of defense, Josko Gvardiol, Manuel Akanji and Micky van de Ven can be selected to take the responsibility for central defenders. The midfield requires a high level of comprehensive ability from the players. So Marcos Llorente and Eduardo Camavinga with nice overall stats are recommended.

Combining this with a typical back-line grants you a system without the disadvantages. Whether it’s the best players in the world or those struggling silvers, this formation works for them all. 3. 4-4-2 4-4-2 serves as a beginning of tactical football, and establishes its name by its traditional advantages.
