Great article Cleon, thank you for writing it and sharing it. If I wanted to change the role of the F9 to an AF as I have a weird obsession with wanting my striker to score bucketloads, would you change the roles and/or duties of those around him?

Disclaimer No1: I am not struggling with this tactic. We are unbeaten in the league after 74 games but we are a little underwhelming in Europe so I wanted to see if there's anything you would suggest needs to change in this tactic to take it to that next level... Disclaimer No2: We have a team on wonder kids who are yet to reach their peak, however each season we are having to overhaul our team as the 'big guns' come calling and our players want to move! So far in this save, after only 5 transfer windows we have sold £586 worth of players! Thankfully so far we've been able to replace them but have struggled to claim a consistent and solid XI with links across the board. This is the tactic... The idea here is for the team to move up as one, to retain the ball well and to be clinical in front of goal. I don't want to press too high up the pitch, rather, I'd prefer to invite a little bit of pressure before trying to press. I have some serious pace up front so any space left behind I would hope to be exploited - does this defeat the purpose of 'work into box?' Roles and duties wise. Nothing crazy here - hoping for an overload on the left which would create space on the right. The AM has the PI's Roam & Take More Risks. One potential weakness I see is the whole of the right side, however we've actually conceded more goals from the left. Any potential / key weaknesses here? I always knew Europe would show them - as the league is pretty poor standard wise and my team is always going to walk that. Thanks!
