Need help with lineup/tactics

[Darth0r]

Hi,

I'm new in these forums and new to PES 2010 online. I can do pretty well against AI but I'm usually getting owned in online as you can figure.

I'm playing with VALENCIA CF with 4-2-2-2 system

___________Cesar

Miguel - Alexis - Marchena - Mathieu

__________Albelda (MCD)

_______M.Fernandes (MC)

Pablo (ID) _____________SILVA(MP)

_______________Mata (SP)

__________Villa(DC)

I usually use pressure to steal balls and use quick Pablo and Silva to go run up the lines. Sometimes attacking I get into the goal but when I really suffer is when I have to defend, my players don't behaviour as the other and I'm very lucky if I'm not losing 3-0 only in first half.

Valencia hasn't any great midfielders, only MCD (defensive mids), so controlling the midfield is a pain in the ass for me.

So, wich advices can u give me to improve midfield play and defense? Is attacking thru bands a good idea (I mean running thru the line to center and pass)?

Thanks!

Try 3-5-2. 3 CB's, one a bit deeper than two others.Use one wing back and place him in the middle of right hand side, then place Silva as LMF (high up the pitch) and set his card to "attack", so with his speed he'll be dangerous while storming through his side. Now one DMF and two AMF's, then placce Villa as right hand side CF and Mata as SS. I use this formation for my Juve and it works, especially for Barcelona and Man U.

Thanks for your answer, I'll try and tell how it was :)

It should look like this:

-----GK-----
-----CB-----
--CB----CB--
-----DMF----
-WB---------
-----AMF----
-AMF----LMF-
-------SS----
---CF--------
