    Alright lads, here are the top five tactics I'm using right now to dominate in Weekend League. Let's get into it!

    4-4-1-1: The Balanced Beast

    First up, the 4-4-1-1. This is probably my favorite formation right now, it's just so nice for building up play. I do have a 4-4-2 on the channel, but this one is my go-to. Remember, you can always tweak these formations and make them your own.

    • Defensive Approach: High
    • Build Up Play: Balanced
    • Team Shape: Sweeper Keeper, two center backs on Defender and Defend, both fullbacks on Fullback Defend.
    • Midfield: One box-to-box midfielder.
    • CAM: This is the most important player in the team, the one who pulls everything together. You want your best player here.
    • Striker: Advanced Forward. This card is sneaky good, lads. The finishing is outrageous.
    • Wingers: Right Mid on Winger and Balanced, Left Mid on Inside Forward and Balanced.

    4-5-1: The Attacking Option

    Next up, the 4-5-1. We've made some tweaks since we posted this on the channel a few weeks ago. This one is a bit more attacking than the 4-4-1-1.

    • Defensive Approach: 75
    • Build Up Play: Balanced
    • Team Shape: Sweeper Keeper, Defenders on Defender and Defend, Left and Right Back on Fullback Defend.
    • Midfield: Left and Right Center Mids on Playmaker. I recommend having a left-footed player on the left and a right-footed player on the right for those sweet driven crosses. Center Center Mid on Deep Line Playmaker. You want someone good at tackling here to break up attacks.
    • Wingers: Left Mid on Inside Forward, Right Mid on Winger. Having a winger on the right creates width, which is crucial.

    Defensive 4-2-3-1: The Game-Sealer

    This is my more defensively minded formation. I go into this when I'm winning and looking to hang on, especially if they start putting pressure on.

    • Defensive Approach: 61 (lowest depth)
    • Build Up Play: Short Passing
    • Team Shape: Two CDMs. You want players who can pass well and are very good at tackling.
    • Midfield: Left Mid on Inside Forward and Balanced, Right Mid on Inside Forward and Balanced. If there's space out wide, I'll switch them to Winger.
    • CAM: Playmaker and Balanced.
    • Striker: Advanced Forward.

    4-1-3-2: The Wild Card

    This is the 4-1-3-2. I absolutely love this formation. I actually got my highest rank in Weekend League with this formation. It's quite attacking, and I like to call it a wild card.

    • Defensive Approach: Balanced
    • Build Up Play: Balanced
    • Team Shape: Two center backs on Defender and Defend, both fullbacks on Fullback Defend, CDM on Holding and Defend.
    • Midfield: Center Mid on Playmaker, Left Mid on Inside Forward, Right Mid on Winger.
    • Strikers: Left Striker on False Nine, Right Striker on Advanced Forward.

    4-4-1-1 (100 Depth): The Comeback Kid

    This is my 4-4-1-1 with 100 depth. I go into this exclusively when I'm losing. It's a last-ditch attempt to get back in the game, and it's super effective.

    • Defensive Approach: 100 Depth
    • Build Up Play: Balanced
    • Team Shape: Two center backs on Defender and Defend, both fullbacks on Wing Back and Balanced.
    • Midfield: Center CM on Playmaker and Balanced, Left CM on Playmaker, Right CM on Inside Forward.
    • Striker: Advanced Forward and Attack.
