I just started doing in this version is targetting opposition weak minded/less brave players with hard tackling and most of the time it works out.
My Dortmund side is 1st would you believe after creating a new tactic and the team seem to like it
-----FC-FC----
-------------
---MC-MC-MC---
------DMC-----
-DL-DC-DC-DR-
the outside mids run diagonally to the top and the middle runs straight up below the strikers, DL and DR run up to dm position and the mentality is only tweaked minorly each game, not far from normal, like a bit wide, a bit direct a bit fast or slow, use target mixed, use playmaker, counter and only offside trap off for away
It seems to be doing ok for now although no blowout scorlines just slight wins like 1-0 ect
Main thing is targeting the weaker opposition with hard tackling but you gotta consider the ref as well, also who ever the opposite player is that gets a yellow start getting your guy to run at him more and he will either foul him aain and get sent off or go easy.
if you need more info just ask
