Hey!
Small message to introduce you to a formation that has great potential and that can make the game fun.
I got Elite 3 (23-4) and having beaten some good players this weekend... but above all, the fun was present.
The most important players are the MC and CB, they must be very fast. When the opponent has the ball, we literally have 5 players who are aggressive (LM/CAM/CM/RM/ST) because we play with "Press after possession loss". It is very effective, but risky. Therefore, having fast players in CM (Henderson, Phillips, TOTS KDB, Vieira, etc) / CB (White, Ramos, Varane, Van Dijk, Gomez etc) is essential.
This formation shows the full potential of your players in defence, every successful tackle is satisfactory.
In CAM, I really like players like TOTY Kanté, TOTY/TOTS KDB, TOTS Ignacio Fernandez, Gullit etc. Very complete midfielders but you can play with Neymar, Mbappé, Sancho, etc without problem.
Team/instructions/custom tactic:
Gameplay:
1) Some goals of this weekend:
2) Theses opponents was not very good, but the video shows the full potential of this formation. Lots of variety.
3) The 451 is the only formation where I am happy to be able to score a beautiful goal
I wish you good luck and have fun!

Some people have this problem, but to be honest I don't know... I've never had this problem. Perhaps it's the instructions, like as the CAM 41212(2)
Thanks for posting. Going to try it for sure. I had the issue with players switching positions too when I tried the formation
How you got 14 million coins without ever hitting elite before?
Are you a really good trader? If so, teach me.
This is why I can’t play 451. Tried it and my CAMs spent more time out wide then my wide players and vice versa, maybe it’s been fixed now?
Maybe it's my instructions , I'll give it a spin as I'm all for attacking formations .
You have a team worth about 30 million coins and spam the same "meta" things all game.
Well done though.
You have all the videos about my gameplay.
Tried it with a stacked team, but it did not work at all. Which is sad as the 451 was my favorite last year and the one that gave me best results (20-22 wins, but never Elite)
Dont need them when i had the pleasure of playing against you before
?
but after first 6 games i was at 1-5 so i switched back to my original team below
and i finished at 11 wins with 6 games to spare
i think the main reasons that i was having more success with the 2nd team one rate 1st team were:
1. i have a more solid midfield (TOTS KDB, TOTY Kante, TOTY FDJ)
2. like some said, with the 451 Zanetti was drifting wide and Messi and Neymar were thinking that they were CDMs
so my question to you is:
1. do you think my 451 team above would work with your tactics?
2. would you pick TOTS KDB or TOTY Kante to start at the CM spot? (due to chem reasons i can start both of them so will have to pick one and sub the other one in later on). I noticed that you have Philips there so maybe it's better to have a CDM at the CM spot and a B2B at one of the CAM spots? I do wanna start with KDB as he's more rounded but Kante is just much more effective with defending
3. Is this your starting formation, or do you use it when you're behind/ahead?
@BC_United first team looks way better imo, just switch Zanetti and KDB in game
How do you have this team if you can barely scrape 11 wins?
Are people just full on credit card FC in these forums?
Am I literally the only person here who doesn't spend tonnes on FP?
I got elite several times in 4231, but this is the first time with the 451. I've never spent €1 on FIFA since FIFA12.
These are just words, I posted different videos of my gameplay. This weekend I didn't play with my main team but a team with Rooney.
Zanetti RB ; Trent CM ; KDB CAM. I've played a lot of times with Trent CM in this formation, excellent! Zanetti is my favorite RB this year so yes, your team is good for the 451.
PS: TOTY Kanté in CAM 451 = Monster.
I play 451 from the first to the last minute except in some hard matches, I play in 4231 in the last minutes for more solidity
would the 1st team still work without switching Zanetti and KDB? i'm only using this as my starting formation to get everyone on full chem but don't want to waste an extra tactic or pause in-game to switch those 2 players
I buy FPs because i'm 40 and have a kid so no time to grind/trade but have some spare cash to help me build a team that I like to play with
I do want to have 4 other formations to switch to depending on how things go during the game and this would be my starting formation to get everyone on full chem, is there anyway to play in this formation without changing players in game (i.e. play with players in their starting position)? Would Zanetti be odd at RCAM even with come back on defence? Should I not have him get into the box?
Would you still start KDB over Kante at CM?
Zanetti RB
Trent CM
KDB CAM
Also going to give this formation a try. Cheers.
