You are best to read the Unofficial Tactics Bible thread at the top of the forum and read some of the main posts by others who have experienced the same.

Please also read the Forum Rules about asking for tactics and using text speak.

"Word".

Two possibilites to throw up here - 1) teams realise how good you are and defend deeper against you and try to hit you on the counter-attack. Your gung-ho tactics were fine when the opposition wanted to play you at a game of football, but have realised this is a mistake and have decided to park a bus in front of goal. Very difficult to break down and leaves you prone to the counter. Check to see if the pre-match odds have drastically changed. As Chelsea, I can't see that being an issue but it might be.

2) In November time it started raining and your tactic didn't work in wet weather. A few boggy months later and a run of poor form has left your team with low morale and you can't get it back again. Once you hit a dip it's hard to get out of it.

If you adapt your tactic to the opposition and the climate you'll do a lot better, but if you keep the same settings rain or shine, Barcelona or Bolton you'll have troubles.

And no text speak.
