I decided to start a season with Manchester United and manage the new generation of stars.
I decided to have 3 formations that I will use; they are 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1 (with wingers) and 4-3-2-1 (with wingers and three centre midfielders).
My thinking for using these formations was that I want my team to play an attacking controlling kind of football so this is where the 4-4-2 and 4-2-3-1 come into it. I also need a defensive tactic for Europe and also when I come up against teams that have stronger midfielders or are generally better (Barcelona spring to mind). Plus I like my squads to know a variety or formations and tactic so when/if I need to change them they are ready to change instantly.
