Sporting Tactic - Jorge Jesus
Jorge Jesus, the manager of Sporting CP has had major success with his tactic.
It involves playing a 4-1-3-2 with wingers and defensive mid.

The Wide-Midfielders (Or Wide Playmakers) are João Mario and Bryan Ruiz, both very technical players, but not fast, so they cut inside, help the overlap for crosses served to the Target Man. (Jefferson the Left-Back is a very talented crosser 18/20). The Box-to-box should be the way to go, as the midfield is left with big gaps. Also he can take the ball up. I would recommend changing the Wide men to Wingers (Gelson Martins, Matheus or Mané) if more crosses and runs are needed.
From what I can see the most important instructions to give are: Overlap and maybe Explore Wings or even Dribble Less.
I never manage to make things work with instructions, so I'm asking you guys to recommend, from what you can see, what should I add?
What will be my main flaws?
Thank you for your time!
