Not sure if there is a similar tactic out there (probably is), but I'll share this anyway
I've only tested this with Barcelona and only a couple of games. If you looking for a 80% possession and 5 goals per game this tactic is not for you .
However if you looking for a solid and consistant possession tactic you can give this one a shot. A very simple tactic.
It's a nice tactic and so far I like how they attack with flair and pace. I started the season bad because I loaded it in like late July. Should start earlier to get the tactic closer to fluid, and I had to play Song and Busquets as CBs for a like 4-5 games, and for some reason I sold Bartra

Most of the goals I concede are from set pieces. The game against Athletic they scored from 2 corners and 1 free-kick. So perhaps you might look into that, I'm too lazy.
Tips:
When you facing teams that focus in the middle I usually try Play more narrow first and if that doesn't help I just switch to a 4-2-3-1. And also when you meet more speedy and technical teams in away games I usually set my D-line on Push higher up instead of Much higher up. Also be careful with over-confidence
Don't forget to use close down on everyone in opposition instructions.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.
