Set your more creative striker to support and your most creative winger to attack
 
Hmmm, I havw done pretty much all of the above and my assistant still tells me of the gap between mid and attack and def and mid. So if I go diamond he tells me we are being over run in midfield. I am winning games anyway so it is just an annoyance to keep seeing the same blurb every game.
 
set your target-man to support and lower his attacking mentality a little
 
My 2nd striker is a deep lying striker on support, and my def mid is ball winner on defend. Might need to tweak the mentality slider bars a little further back still then....
 
Don't use a BWM in a 4 man midfield, he doesn't offer enough cover, make him a CM/D instead. And your TM to support.
