Can Anyone help me with my Juventus Formation? (Pics Included)

[gignteman]

Main Lineup

Attack

Defence

I need help mainly with my attacking flow, having some problems there. i like to attack via the wing, cross and try to score, also i regularly score from corners and i usually try to force my opponents to concede corners, another problem would be the occasional defensive slipup, whereby a lone attacker somehow bypasses the defence and has a shot.

Perhaps you should revert to a more balanced formation (between att/def). Perhaps use a 442 and push the defence up higher and play an offside trap. Mayb you could purchase/use a more capable striker when it comes to passing and dribbling.

 

[gignteman]

I only can play with the default players shown, as i only play online 4-4-2 is quite hard for me as i'm not good at defending

 

[Teekay]

You should play 4-3-3 like this. Tactics and arrows default.

Buffon(GK)​

Zebina(RB)

Thuram(CB) Cannavaro(CB)​

Zambrotta(LB)​

Camoranesi(RM)

Emerson(CM)​

Nedved(LM)​

Del Piero(CF)​

Trezeguet(CF) Mutu(CF)​

default meaning the stock formation for juventus?


EDIT: do you have a screenshot for the formation you mentioned?

 

[gollan]

The best tip is: Learn to defend. this is Juve. You have great defense. By playing like that you gave up the midfield completly. You can play like Teekay's suggestion, or, if you want to be more defensive, use Camoranesi (RMF) Nedved (OMF) and 2 DMFs (Emerson and Appiah). Set Camoranesi and Nedved attack arrows to go forward and backwards, so they wouldn't roam too much into the attack. But seriously, your formation sucks. You let Blasi play OMF?!?! Zambrotta to play DMF? Learn to use Zamrotta's ability to help with the offense so you can put your DMFs in a more right-ward way... But then again, what's the problem with your defending? It seems that you are looking for a temporary cure for a permament problem.....

yeah. I don't have a screen shot (I play PS2), but the side midfields should be a little closer to center than normal. Del piero behind the strikers, and the other two forwards just at the same spot as two strikers would normally be:

Del Piero​

Trezequet​

Zlatan​

The strategy works like a dream for me. juve's defenbce is ace, and if you in master league buy a great striker (henry, ronaldo). you will score masses of goals.

Ok, after listening to your comments, i tweaked the formation to 4-3-3 as followed, is this what you were talking about?

Main Lineup

Attack

Defence

I'm not sure how i should configure my attack and defence arrows to suit my style of play, but as gollan mentioned i put both my lmf and rmf arrows backward and forward so they wouldn't go too much into attacking, the way i play is that i attack via the wing, and cross, or find a loophole through the defence, through pass and shoot.


EDIT : Is 4-2-2-2 a good formation to use for juventus?

 

[gollan]

Yeah. I think 4-2-2-2 would be better for you (if you have trouble defending). Teekay's 4-3-3, or whatever you made of it, is a very offensive formation. If the opponent passes your single CMF, you're in trouble. Firstly, just make one of your SBs (the right one, Zambrotta is good at attacking) go up during attack. Also place him a bit more forward. The other one should move forward and into the middle to help. I wouldn't play with a 3 pronged attack, it's only a default when nedved is hurt. Have 2 strikers, nedved in a left-centrish and more forward position, camornasi is in his place, and either of your strikers should be replaced with a DMF (blasi or appiah).

 

[gignteman]

Ok here's my new 4-2-2-2 formation take a look, comments are appreciated.


Main Lineup

Attack

Defence

Backline A
Zonepress A
Offside Trap B
Counter attack B


I put nedved as the left omf, and camoranesi as the right omf, mutu & trezeguet both centre forward, i need some honest opinion on how to tweak this formation, if you were me what would you do?

 

[cadey]

Try drifting Zlatan out onto the left wing and play Mutu or whoever as the main striker.

 

[gignteman]

I don't get you, who's Zlatan?

 

[Zygalski]

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, CF.
As in the first pic in the first post.

 

[Teekay]

This should work well. Just place the front two a little more further, and more to the sides. Ther defencing is not a problem. I've played half of the serie A season with this and I conceded only 9 or so goals. The trick is to have the ball all the time, so your opponent cannot score. And the defence is quality, but also Nedved and Camoranesi can defend. But I reckon the 4-2-2-2 isn't bad either.

Btw, can you give me some tips on the offensive arrows, as well as the defensive arrows?

 

[gollan]

yeah. your formation is too symetrical, meaning you can do whatevery you do on the same side. This is not particularly an advantage. Thruam is your RB, Zamrotta's your LB. Thruam is better at defending, but is slower. So you can place Zambrotta in a bit more forward position and Thruam should be left where you placed him. Nedved should come more to the middle, Camornasi - not. Also try to put Nedved more into the middle and forward, and his arrows should go backwards as well. Don't put your strikers in the same line (like people told you to move Zlatan to the left. BTW what do you mean who is Zlatan?!?!?!? )
And your dmfs - Emerson should be more forward. This way, you can clearly see that your left side is your more offensive side via Nedved and Zambrotta. You'll have to keep that in mind while defending, but it is easy to use when attacking. If you play the same human more than a couple of times, they'll notice it, but then you can utilize some strategy to surprise them (like change sides or right side attack).

Try that.

Are you talking about the 4-3-3 formation, or the 4-2-2-2?

 

[Teekay]

Are you talking about the 4-3-3 formation, or the 4-2-2-2?

Probably the 4-2-2-2.

 

[cadey]

Zlatan Ibrahimovic should be out on the left flank because hes strong, he has pace and he is hard to close down. This way, he can feed the main striker in the box and can cut inside and shoot himself, this is good for counter attacking.

 

[NiceTouch]

So...err....what was wrong with their original formation?
It makes sense that they would start with the formation which best suit their strengths and style of play..no?

Side note: what part of east anglia you from cadey?
