I'm testing this tactic with Genoa, who are definitely not the favorites to win the league or qualify for European competition. I'm watching all the matches, no simulations. These are the results so far. This tactic is truly wonderful.
I can confirm: it's the best tactic I've used so far. With Juventus, I dominated the league (only one defeat) and in the Champions League, I was eliminated by Barcelona in the quarterfinals, 3-2 on aggregate, but we dominated both matches. I also won the Italian Cup and the Italian Supercup.
I'll update you on how it will go in Serie A. The predictions are all against us. My team has very little money and making a decent team is really difficult
At the beginning of the season I was predicted 16th. With your tactics, win the championship, best attack and best defense. My strongest attacker was the top scorer in the championship.
Hit on the near post. The two central defenders, one attacks the near post, the other stays at the near post (I recommend the tallest and strongest with a header at the near post). A man near the flag, one marking the goalkeeper and two other players at the far post
