Switched from the Banshee 4-3-1-2 to the classic formation 4-3-1-2. In both have been leaking goals (conceding average of 3 per game in first 10 games with Hertha in German top division). With the classic formation I am scoring more and winning more now. One game I won 5-4 but opposition pulled it back from 4-1 to 4-4 then next game was winning 3-1 ended up 3-3. In bottom half of table scored second most goals in league but conceded the most.
i walked league 1 then championship with Birmingham using Banshee 4-4-3 then walked German 2nd division with Hertha using same tactic. The step up appears much bigger this time I think this is why I am struggling.
Also for example I might loose a game 4-3, giving away two penalties and scoring an own goal but my whole defence still get good ratings of around 7!
