after a lot of testing and tweaking and re-tweaking, i've finally stabilised on one version. ironically its the version i played with for the first half of the season. i only started changing things in january after i got some feedback from some users. the only changes i attempted were offensive, as defensively the tactic is playing superbly (especially in league games). the only big change i've maintained from the tweaks in january is removing direct passing from the team instructions. that seems to be working quite well.
these results are simply too good, and i cant wait until the end of the season to post them. its the best this tactic has performed for me thus far. although i think a lot of it, especially defensively, has to do with the players i have. all my more defensive playrs are big and strong, and this is essential, especially in midfield. they are also technical, which is important too.

we've only lost 1 game all season, away to napoli, and undeservedly so as they scored from a f-kick obviously. we've conceeded very few goals in the league, although quite a few in other competitions, especially on our right hand side as you can see from the screenie, and i suspect this is due to me having adapted koke to play as a right wing back. he's now fully accomplished there, so he should do better.
its been a real team effort, as goals and assists come from mostly everywhere, although my better players like diego costa, vela and turan have more goals and assists, but the wing-backs and centre midfielders have also contributed a lot.
unfortunately i was kicked out of the cup on away goals. i posted the screenies from those matches earlier. 2 f-kick goals and their keeper was MOM
not much one can do about that... i gues the vast majority of goals i've conceeded are from set-pieces, especially direct and in direct free-kicks, as im happy with the amount we concede from corners (we also score quite a few).
its been a really positive season thus far and i hope we can continue this form, although 20 pts ahead of 2nd with 26 games played is quite ridiculous. my aim now is to concentrate on the champions league, and hopefully bag that, as it would takle a catastrophy to lose the league as it stands.
this is the tactic i've been using if anyone wants to give it a try:

edit: just played 2 games where we werent creating too many chances against easier opposition, and had to add direct passing to instructions again. might re-add it later permanently.
vela and diego cota got injured, and my backup players arent as good, so i removed "dribble more" from SS's
50% training on att movement, high team cohesion and no OI's
