I've run some test in the Ligue 1 with this tactic with the latest winter updated squads.
Played with 3 teams.
Lyon - Predicted 3
Nice - Predicted 9
Metz - Predicted 20
Here are the risults.
Lyon finished 2nd
Nice finished 3rd
Metz finished 6th
Metz lost the cup final.
Lyon lost Coupe De La Ligue final.
I've tweaked the passing style from more direct to short and some defensive/offensive corner kicks.
