My Ajax team won everything using this tactic:

formation
---------
4-3-3

team instructions
-----------------
emphasis: normal
passing: normal
tackling: normal
pressing: yes
offside trap: no
counter attack: no
men behind ball: no

player instructions
-------------------
passing: everyone set to team
tackling: 2 side MC's set to hard, rest set to team
pressing: GK and whole defence set to no, rest set to team
pass to: everyone set to R/L/C
i didn't change the set pieces
free role: central MC set to yes, rest no
forward runs: DL, DR, central MC and all FC's to yes, rest to no
run with ball: DL, DR, central MC and side FC's to yes, rest to no
hold up ball: central MC to yes, rest to no
long shots: all MC's to yes, rest to no
through balls: central MC to yes, rest to no
cross ball: DL, DR and side FC's to yes, rest to no
marking: DL, DR, central MC and all forwards to zonal, rest to man, except goalkeeper who is set to none

It's inspired on the real Ajax tactic, but it works with other teams as well.

when i go down a goal or when it's still 0-0 after 45 minutes, i change the emphasis to attacking, passing to short and tackling to hard. most of the times i score within 10 minutes after the change

I prefer to play with an AM/FLC and AM/FRC, but it also works when you play with 3 strikers. Try to get players with high attributes for dribbling and crossing.
