Custom formations

[paconaifas]

I´ve noticed that FM 23 has even less custom formations, than FM 22 had. No 4-3-1-2 or 4-3-3 narrow, for example. And that made be think that with less custom formations, AI managers have less options to change their teams formations, when they need to mid game for example (I think they only use the custom formations in the game, but correct me if I am wrong). Doesn´t it give us an advantage, if we use other formations, made by us, that no other AI manager uses, or may use in the future. Doesn´t it make the game easier for us?

As SI approached to have better match AI, I think they removed formations which performed poorly for AI Managers and weren't played much by Human Managers.

They took out even the 4-2-3-1 w/o DM.

And i tried making it work, but it's just dysfunctional... That says it all for me: only stayed the formations who, by default, are playable. 

If you want to make another formation playable, you'll probably need a little bit more work to make it happen.
