I also play Juve.

Llorente in the CF role, Lewandowski as AF. Vucinic as backup for Llorente, Matri as back up to Lewandowski.
 
This tactic is great I just come 3rd in the league with my wolves team in 2016 but I used it for the last 3/4 of the season and I have just won the champions league and FA cup, very consistent, Thanks for the tactic :-)

I agree with Herne79, Llorente & Lewandowski up top, with Vucinic & Matri as back up. Also with Llorente's aerial ability I'd have him attack the near post on corners (do via player instructions and move the DCR to stand on far post).
 
I've just posted this on the SI Forum, so will hopefully get some good feedback on there! It's needs to be accepted by a moderator but hopefully will be on there shortly.

Drawn my last 5. Although they were against Chelsea (Away), Spurs (Home), Utd (Away), Villa (Home) & Newcastle (Away).

Not too down about it, we're competing well against the top sides and with a bit of added quality I can see us winning these matches.
 
Have you tried holding a team meeting? If I go a few games without winning I hold one to give them a kick up the ****/motivation/belief.
 
got promoted to the premier league for the 2015/16 season with Oldham Atheltic without using this tactic. Started using this tactic and avoided relegation on goal difference on the last day of the season with a draw against Chelsea. I had a very very weak team a lot of players from league 1 so it is a very good achievement. Will try to buy well this season. Was very impressed with this tactic especially against the top teams however was a bit disappointed with home games against relegation rivals. Thanks for this tactic though i think it will work wonders with a few additions.
 
Frequent reader but I thought I'd post to tell you your tactic is very good mate, tried this with Lecce who is in Italian Serie C1 and won the league comfortably what was more impressive though I found with this tactic is that it was very effective against big teams. I managed to get to the semi-finals of the Italian Cup beating Juventus (Away) on penalties and Inter (Away) 2-0 (Inter didn't even manage a shot on target!) until I met my match against eventual cup winners Lazio.

All of the players I frequently used all managed a rating above 7.00, Ferrario was a monster from your corner setup and Chevanton & Salvatore Foti worked excellently together up front which I was happy with as I was struggling to get them both to work together well in a league they should be dominating.

I'll post screenshots in a minute but I thought I'd let you know good work!
