At my wits end - help for tactics with Parma

7 of the 11 conceded has been long shots. From about 20-25 metres where my DM should be.

Check why your DM isn't where he should be.  Why is he out of position?  Bear in mind you have given him a support duty + you are using TIs to press very aggressively.  Perhaps a defend duty would be better (or a different role such as Anchor Man) and/or use selective PIs for pressing for your more advanced players rather than a global TI to make everyone press.

I have thought about that, but why isn't a problem when we play at home?

I have removed press more from the two CM's and that seems, so far, to work.

Teams tend to be a little more adventurous when they play at home, so your support duty DM may get caught out of position a little more often when you play away.
