EDIT: There is a slightly tweaked and defensively better tactic on page 4
I originally built this tactic and figured i would alter and perfect it as i went along, however i went unbeaten for the first 30 league games, and my first premier league loss was with a B team away to man city as i had already basically won the title and had an upcoming game versus Real Madrid. This tactic is pretty flawed as a result, but i was obviously reluctant to change anything due to the results.
I scored 22 goals from corners in the league, and the winning goal in the champions league was also from a corner, so it might be worth it to at least take a look at that. also won 17 home games and drew 2, so it is very effective at home.
I have no idea how it works with a lesser team, but if you try it let me know. I will definitely change it a bit for the next season, so if you have any improvements let me know! I have already tried the bwm on defend and also the dlp on defend, and that decreases my shots and increases the opposition shots, the full backs were both among my top 5 performers, and were a lot less good on support as well..
Possession is generally not very high, neither are your shots, and the opposition gets quite some shots as well if they have any quality. However i found that the oppositions shots were often from difficult positions and not real chances. Most of my players enjoy the teams style of play and it is pretty effective scoring wise.
Obviously if you have a great inside forward on the right you should invert the tactic. I use no OI's but sometimes let my assistant do them.
If you play as arsenal i definitely recommend selling mertesacker immediately as he is very unsuitable for a high defensive line. i sold him for 20 million euros to monaco, and bought the strong and extremely fast Zouma for 20 up front and 22.5 after 50 apps or something like that.
Also keep in mind that it is cool to keep arsene wenger as director of football, but if you win the league and champions league he gets a total of 4.9 million euros in bonusses for that.
