Hi all!

I have managed to tighten up in the defence, playing quite narrow, and with a high defensive line. I am Lewes, have taken them from lower divisions and in to league 2 as we speek.

I am applying the 5-5 thinking to my tactics, with a four back line, and a defensive midfielder taking care of most attacks as I don't seem to concede much.

My problem however, is creating the chances. I have quite a bit of pace in my squad, considering my opposition teams (league Two), and my strikers have good finishing. What I really lack, is heading skills and jumping, so I guess I wouldn't profit too much on going for the typical wing play with crosses.

Does anybody have any thoughts on how to set up my attacking five in order to string together some nice football and creating chances?

Any suggestions are welcome!

I suggest you pack the middle of the pitch, play the middle, and use short passes and play to feet.
