4-2-1-2-1 any tweak ideas?

Hi there this is my first tactic after a long time and i need some advice. Please help. I tried it to a few championships on holiday but had some great results and some really bad results.

my players instructions are:
FB's: Close down more - shoot less - run wide with ball - pass shorter - mark tighter - tackle harder - fewer risky passes.
DC's: Tackle harder - mark harder - close down more
HB: Mark tighter - pass shorter - fewer risky passes - tackle harder - shoot less
RGA: Dribble less - hold position - more direct passes - close down more
AP: close down more - shoot more - tackle harder - roam
T: tackle harder - pass shorter - shoot more - dribble more
EG: more direct passes - tackle harder
AF: tackle harder - move into channels - roam - pass shorter - mark tighter

one change i was thinking was to change the HB to a BWM(D) or an A(D)
Any ideas?

update:
i won all my games (7) except one and i m 3rd with Derdy (expected to finish 15th)
i add for the EG further forward - mark harder - shoot more often
also i change the HB to an A and reemove hold position from RGA

Hi Glenfiddich,

These screenshots show what I'm doing with Nathaniel Clyne and Luke Shaw in my ongoing Southampton save, getting averages of 7.04 from both full-backs in season 2018/19:
