Hi, I am struggling with my beloved Southampton. I've basically have three formations set up: 4-3-3, 4-1-2-2-1 (or 4-5-1 as the game states it) and a standard 4-4-2.
They all share some of the same ideas, being the following:
The problem with these tactics, one thing being that they dont work all that well in general, is that i get absolutely trashed by better teams.
1. I've recently played against Chelsea and Man Utd and lost 4-0 and (6!)-0 respectively. Despite not going on the offence when it comes to shouts etc.
I know part of the problem is a lack of their quality players, but still its a new experience for me getting trashed that hard by better teams.
2. And I find it hard getting anywhere close to the best out of my team against substantial weaker opponents (league/championship). Here it is again some missing piece I can't quite get a hold of.
Do you guys, the brilliant bunch most of you are, have any ideas for which shouts/tactical tweaks I should use to get something better out of the before mentioned scenarios?

They all share some of the same ideas, being the following:
- A fluid system (Being a fan of versatile players and versatile play)
- Zonal Marking (I am Norwegian, we dont know anything else)
- More Roaming (Again, personal preferences, movement is a good thing. It doesnt work to well with the 4-4-2 though)
- Press More (Again, personal preference)
