did you change anything on tactic? or use the original one in op? And last question are you watching the game or instant?
Pretty much just the original in OP except I set passing from shorter to mixed.
Shorter was slowing down my counter attacks and causing too many long shots when players found themselves on the edge of the box but with no passing options very close to them.
I also gave one CM the "dribble more" instruction because it was Coutinho who has 19 dribbling and is more effective when he takes someone out by dribbling past them and then passes rather than just passing.
I was always watching my games (either Key or Extended highlights) and rotated well, especially with the CMD position as they tended to get worn out.
If my team was struggling to break down the opposition in the first half it was almost always the same problem - the opposition was playing a very narrow, deep midfield when out of possession and my IFs were running into walls. I'd check average positions analysis to confirm this and if so change the width from narrow to balanced and sometimes add look for overlap. Usually ended up scoring within 5-10 game minutes after making that change.
