I'm half way through the first season in the Premier League 2017/2018 with Forest, using Strikerless (V1 base with a few V3 tweaks applied, V3's dribbling settings doesn't fit my squad too well). Working like a charm so far!

Adapted the waste time tactics to work as a huge underdog tactics with some amazing results (central CM to defend duty with man mark on good AMCs, wing backs to defend duty with dribble less instruction, team mentality counter, slightly higher defensive line and remove work ball in to box). With this I managed to beat City and Chelsea at home both 3-1, United away 1-0 and two unlucky losses to Arsenal and Liverpool away by a single late goal after missing several CCCs myself.
Not sure if my team will crumble under the pressure of the european race soon, considering I still have about half a starting eleven from the original forest squad left never having played Premier League football before.
