Okay with the help of https://www.guidetofm.com/tactics/playing-style-composition/ I created the tactic below. I've used TI's associated with Direct Attacking Football, and used roles that have PI's that are more suited to Direct Attacking Football, while keeping in mind the players most suitable role and synergy with Player Traits (I'm still bummed out that I could not optimise Kroos). Some of the Direct Attacking Football TI's were removed and instead I used PI's to gain a similar effect. The DR/DL have the PI Cross More Often, Cross From Deep and Rune Wide With Ball. The DM has Tackle Harder and Hold Position. For the MCL I have Take More Risks, Shoot More Often and Move Into Channels. Last but not least, both IW have Shoot More Often. I tested my tactic (and all variations of it) by going on holiday, but I noticed that I've had the most success by going on holiday for 120 days. With 90 days, the board was 9 out of 10 times times not satisfied, so it will take some time.

Did you manage to create a direct style? I'm having the same issues as you, running simulations with new roles etc, but without success.
