Here is my new tactic it's a 4-1-1-2-2 tactic and Use all the same information as above.
Make sure DM is a DM and not a daft playmaker. CM position can be attacking defensive or neutral depending on how tight you want your defence.
Defensive Positioning is a MUST this needs to be on Match Prep.
Thats about it really.
I will be playing with this tactic for a while and if i come across any tweaks that i find better i'll update.
