Formation is the way players are positioned on the pitch. There are different formations used. For all, the goalkeeper is obviously in the goal, so it is really about how the other 10 players are positioned. Commonly there are 4 defenders in a line, 4 across the middle of the pitch and 2 at the front in attacking positions. This is known as 4 - 4 - 2. Other formations can be used, like 4 - 3 - 3 or 4 - 5 - 1. These are tactical decisions made by the manager.
4 - 2 - 2 - 2 = 2010 U.S. National Soccer Team
That which takes into account the strengths and weaknesses of you and your opponent.
There is no formation, they'll bunch around the ball and that's the way it should be!

the best formation is to consult the team and ask them where they would like to play
it depends on the formation of the team or the amount of players that is their.
6 defenders lol
it depends on what formation you are playing but normally 3 or 4 at most.
I do not know what you are talking about. (second contrib.) this may refer to a tactical pattern used in soccer called a box or a square passing formation.
Four defenders, Four Midfielders, and 2 attackers/strikers.
Plates that football/soccer managers/coaches use to help explain tactics to the players.
You set up a 4 3 3 formation in soccer manager by choosing four defenders, 3 midfielders and 3 strikers.
