This is the first tactic I've ever made for real competitive use. I've tried it with many teams to similar success, but it's originally custom made for Borussia Dortmund (or at least any team with good deeplying playmakers, a very prolific goalscorer and most importantly a good left winger).
It has no fancy names. It's just an attacking tactic which relies in a solid defense and initiating the ball control from the back. The results will be pretty good once the team is used to it, averaging about 60% possession and a nice scored-to-conceded ratio. I used it in my first two years with BVB and helped me a lot, leading us to two consecutive trebles, including a 0-4 trashing of Bayern München at 2013 UCL final.
The tactic must be used with the following shouts: Play ball from defense, Press opposition higher, Pass to feet, Try to break opponent defense line, Look for overlap, Work ball into box and Retain possession. It works wonders at home, and is surprisingly effective at away matches despites being an all-out attacking tactic.
I'd be glad to have someone also test it, so maybe I'll decide to create a topic for everyone who is interested in it.
