Thanks for sharing this one dimartino! I agree with you that the most accurate way of testing is actually playing the match, only commentary mode will do.

Do you use right footed winger on right side and vice versa with the chieftain tactic?

CHIEFTAIN

Another style of the 4-4-2. Training as described in the OP and corners are to be taken by the wide mids. Tested with Newcastle and also loaded up in my Testing League.

Use Attack home and Counter away.

Don't worry about the 2 DLPs. Just put good DM/CM players with nice teamwork.

Just not working for me...

Deadly Circle has worked for me in the past but this time its just not happening. I've followed your instructions as much as is possible, including team talks and training. Our form is just hopeless.

I'm playing as Kilmarnock in the SPL. We are expected to finish second bottom. My board want me to avoid last place. We are managing that, just, but I was hoping for a lot more. My strikers aren't the best so I've had to retrain two attacking midfielders but they've both got excellent stats for DLP & F9 & they were both Accomplished as strikers anyway. We get anihilated against teams that play five in midfield. I lost my last game 4-0 against an average Inverness CT side at home and with us being the favourites.

I'm using the original Deadly Circle Counter almost all of the time, the original Attack version when we need a goal, both have been fluid for a while, I've also got Silent Hill's version which has just turned fluid which I haven't used yet.

Here my team:

I just don't know why its not working. We're not the best side in the league but a good tactic should overcome that. I'm grateful to Zyndar for his work and I'm not doubting that its working for a lot of people but just not me. I'm really losing faith in Football Manager 2016. I've not had success with any team at all. Its not enjoyable and its getting boring.

I have to say that the old versions are not used by now by the others, the possible reason is that they was made for 16.2. You are saying it was working before, but stopped to do that. I can only suggest you to try the latest ones, Chieftain or the Silent Hill HSC, those were made for 16.3.

** NO OIs. **

We are using wingers, so MR should be right footed and ML should be left footed. Right corners are taken by ML and left corners by MR. If you are struggling to get the winning goal in a match, change to Control after the 70th minute.


Training

Put the tactic to all 3 slots at the start of pre season and set match tactics as match training. The general training should be fitness for 2-3 weeks and team cohesion until the start of the season. During the season for general training use Balanced and Def.Positioning as match training. The slider should be 2 ticks from the left.

At the start of pre season (first 3 weeks)

Afterwards (until the tactic is fully fluid)

trying with fiorentina, is it better to use a stronger striker like kalinic, or quicker smaller zarate as DLF-A
 
Beside the results, I am also interested how you find the attacking corner routine.
