i have been allowed many goals from set pieces !! how to solve it guys :///
 
Defensive corner setup is good. Do you concede by headers? What about your central Defenders? Do they have good jumping?

Can you help me in last post ? too many goals allowed in my goal :(
 
Working well in league 2 with AFC Wimbledon. I use the "Control" version against weaker opponents. That said, I'm maybe 15 games in, and finally getting up to 90% tactical familiarity, so with full familiarity, it may work differently. (I took over Wimbledon mid-season).

not all of them by headers , all the fouls conecede in me by against team players cuts on the ball by heads or foot , always allowed in my goal keeper :( my defenders not too bad am playing by Fulham ( Mammana , Stearman , De Burn )
 
Finally, my team (AFC Wimbledon, League 2, the year is 2019 now) is finally fully fluid with this tactic. I'm still using the "Control" version to score goals, but the default (counter) tactic is working well defensively, but I find my players still missing easy goals.

Results wise, we were 18th when I took over, after maybe 10 games into the season, so at that point, we started learning this tactic (both versions). we're now 2nd in the league, with the best goal difference, so quite a turn around.

Your players are going to pick up cards, and make way too many fouls early. When someone gets a red, assuming they deserve it (which is very likely) just issue a warning, which they should accept, and the whole team should dial the aggression back a bit. I've played out maybe 20 games or so and the situation improves dramatically.

That said, teams are going to figure out to go route one. They won't get many chances, but they will score against you. You need at least one fast central defender, and a pretty fast goalkeeper with a decent "rushing out" attribute.

What Pitch size do you guys recommend/use for this tactic?
I'm no expert, but I use a small pitch when my team is weak within the division (just promoted, for example) and large when one of the top teams. That said, with this tactic, you are going to need a fast team to have a long pitch. I'm scoring and conceding a lot by long passes onto a fast striker. If I had slower players, I would want a short pitch - and if I have tall strikers and central defenders I think I would want a wider pitch. Of course, I have not tested all this out as it would take years.
