Football Manager Team Football Formation

Lineup (4-2-3-1)

Allows strong defence in the middle of the park (the two defensive midfielders screen the opposition strikers)
LAM and RAM can come inside to pack the midfield which allows space for overlapping fullbacks.
Can easily transform to 4-3-3 if you want to be more attacking by pushing the LAM and RAM high and wide and playing the CAM and one of the DMs side by side and having an inverted triangle midfield 3.
one of the DMs is an out and out DM and the other can be a box-to-box player.
ST is very important and has to have many qualities especially holding up the ball, but also be able to run in behind.
Front 4 players have the possibilty of being very flexible in attack.
