Default How to win Arsenal

Been so frustrated with this new match engine and how all seems to be different in regards to how it used to work. So have spent the day testing different variations and systems to get a feel for how it works.

In the process i came up against Arsenal and found my self playing the game 10 times trying to beat them. Lost all 10 games with a total 34-5 goal difference. Got even more frustrated and made a complete idiot tactic that i just wanted to see how it would effect Arsenal in stopping them from scoring.

My shocking result
Arsenal vs. Man Utd

Score first, score often.

That's my motto when playing big teams (or any team, come to think of it...), usually the best defense is a good offense.

Yeah thats a rubbish outcome from using that tactic.

Lots of teams do play that sort of system, but they may scrape a 1-1, but to win 3-0 using such a daft tactic is disappointing.

Some might argue that playing defensively against a side as gifted as Arsenal is inviting danger though.

Also might need to know how the goals were scored, for all we know it could be three penalties, or something.
