I'm struggling to find a good balance. What formation do most people go for?
When I play online and notice people with custom formations, the majority of players that play well or have a good team seem to play either a very compact formation (high defensive line and forwards close to midfield) or very open with 4 defenders sitting on the edge of the box and forwards all the way at the top of the pitch.
Typically I've played with a high defensive line and have my center forward around the top of the box and 2 wide players hugging the touchline on both wings.
I just feel like I can't get the balance between attacking and defending. Just curious what formations people typically use with respect to high defensive lines and compact formations.
