Hi Fm-base.
I am doing a save with Southampton in the BPL, and up until that save of playing FM, I've always gone with tactics I could find in here. I decided enough is enough, and tried to have confidence in my own abilities as a tactician. Oh dear god. I seem to lose nearly every game down to individual mistakes by my defenders, horrible misses by my strikers or terrible defending by my fullbacks - mistakes that I don't think is hinted in their attributes, which I think are decent.
My setup is meant to overload the midfield with players, outnumbering to opposition and then having high workrate wide players in my fullback spots to bomb up and down, providing both in attack and defense. I have one very free and roaming player in Zivkovic up front, partnered with supposed goal-machine in Gabriel Barbosa. Gabriel is on 2 goals in 7 games, Zivkovic is on 1 goal in 5 games. Im predicted to finish 7th, and I am currently sitting 18th!! Another problem is that I seem to get tons of yellow cards, which is evident in that after 7 league games I have four players on who have all individually picked up 4 or more yellow cards!
It seems my tactic just isn't working the way I want it to, and given my inexperience, it's hard for me to spot the problem. If anyone think they can work it out, pointers would be absolutely appreciated. I can post match stats from a few games as well if anyones interested.
Anyway, here are the pictures.
