Hey. I got a lot of questions about Real Madrid: formations, line-up, etc.
So, I made this video to give you an answer.
Lets start from my favourite formation 4-2-2-2.
GK - Casillas, because he has better OVR skill than Diego Lopez.
But I can use Diego Lopez sometimes, when playing vs. Bayern Munich,
because he is higher than Casillas.
And it's not so hard for him to fight at the "2nd floor", vs. headers from strong munich players.
DEFENDERS. Carvajal and Marcelo at the wings, Pepe and Ramos at the center.
Why not Varane? Because he is very slow and he has a bad balance.
So it will be easy for your opponent to do an longball or through ball.
Coentrao is not so good like Marcelo and Carvajal.
I tried to play with Coentrao at the start of FIFA14 season,
but he liked to lose RB position, so Carvajal is better for me.
MIDFIELDERS and STRIKERS.
Using Xabi Alonso and Modric at the CDM position. They help me to attack.
By the way, the first task for CDM is destruction.
So you can use Khedira together with Xabi Alonso.
But I want to see all midfielders at attack.
Khedira is too slow and has not so good technic like Modric or Xabi Alonso,
so he is at the substitutes.
Bale and Di Maria - wingers. Benzema and Ronaldo - strikers.
Cristiano at the left, Bale at the right wing.
So, my both wings are danger.
Some players can use Bale+Ronaldo at the same wing and play just at the one wing,
but it's not a good idea, because you need more improvisation.
SUBSTITUTES. Khedira, Isco and Jese Rodriguez
are going to play at the 75th min. They have to change 3 from 6 players at the attack,
which has not strength and are tired at the moment.
And now, about 4-1-2-1-2 (you know as 4-4-2 wide diamond).
Modric is going go CAM position. Xabi Alonso still at the CDM.
RM & LM - Di Maria and Bale. Strikers - Benzema and Ronaldo.
Playing with 4-3-3 sometimes.
There are Ronaldo at the center of my attack. Benzema and Bale at the wings.
You wanna ask why Benzema, and not Di Maria at the wing?
Because you can be sure, that Benzema is good at the finishing, strongest than Di Maria, good headers also.
And you will not trust in Di Maria, if you will have a possibility to cross, because Angel is not so strong.
So, Benzema is better than Di Maria in attack.
You can use another combination of players at the midfield zone, with Khedira or Isco, for example.
Now 4-2-4, if you need to comeback and have to score.
Usually is 75 or 80 min, so I'm going to change 3 tired players.
Isco and Jese Rodriguez at the wings, and Khedira is going to switch Xabi Alonso.
And strikers - Bale with Ronaldo.
Sometimes you can use 5-4-1, if you need to save the score, or your opponent is laggy.
Varane will be good at the center of your defense, he will not lose his position.
Ramos and Pepe will help to him at the through ball situations.
At the CDM you can use Xabi Alonso, if you need a great pass.
Or Khedira, if you want to destroy.
At the end - 4-2-3-1, which is the most popular formation 2nd year in a row.
And you can watch my line-up for this formation.
That's all.
