EDIT: Bollox, didn't realise it updates both parts of your post when you add a comment.
I have been trying a 3-5-2 experiment, with a flat 5 midfield, with Liverpool and I always thought a 3-5-2 was a possession dominator, but I'm finding although I'm solid at the back and winning a fair share of matches (3rd after 18 games), I'm not scoring many or am I having over 50% possession even against much weaker sides. Also my two strikers are the only two that are contributing to the goals (around 95%).
My team instructions are:
Fluid, Control, Shorter Passing, More Expressive, Press More, Man Marking, Float Crosses. (Roaming & Tackle default)
I play a highish defensive, line, mid/high width and slow/mid tempo. Focus passing mixed and no counter attack or offside trap.
Back 3: Agger (Ball playing, Defend) Carragher (Limited, Defend) & Skrtel (Cntrl defender, Defend)
Midfield 5: Hazard (Winger, Attack), Lucas (Ball Winner, Support), Gerrard (Adv. Playmaker, Support), Meireles (Box-to-Box, Support), Maxi/Kuyt (Wide Mid, Auto)
Attack: Torres (Adv. Forward, Attack) & Llorente (Target Man, Support)
So if anyone can spot some weaknesses in that, feel free to point them out as I'm not sure where to start weaking yet, as I don't want to want to have any adverse effects.
Thanx.
