I'm sure others can answer this better, but I don't think OIs change if you change a players position, they are set while playing a match and based on the opposition players position, not yours (I think). If you want to change them and save them you have to do it during a match though (save tactic after making changes while playing a match).

Finished my season with United, won everything with a squad that's far from reaching it's potential.

I'm glad this thread is still going. Locksmith definitely the best out there, however I've tweaked the defensive set pieces as I didn't like the original ones plus I've made a ML mirror version which comes in handy when my original MR is out injured. Abomination v3 is a very close second however all-round P&P I think Locksmith is the best. Abomination will probably get you more goals but that's because it's pushed up so you'll concede more, especially against better opposition. Never really had success with MrH tweak unfortunately.

Forgot to mention that it's worth noting that having the ML tweak version in the 3rd tactic slot is a good choice because it's my go to version when I get a man sent off. I just take off the AMC and I've actually manager to score even turn matches around thanks to that tactic.

I've been using the original tactic as main, and MrH's tweak when I need to attack a bit more. Working fine for me, unbeaten in the league so far, and won it last season too. I'm using QPR and a lot of good young players. What I like is I will generally edge out on or at least match the opponents' CCC even when I lose/draw, that is important to me.

I've also noticed that if the tactic isn't working and you're not churning out decent chances within 15 minutes or so, a change has to be made immediately (eg. original > MrH tweak) and most of the time, the tide will turn. Maybe it's because the formations are different, therefore switching catches the opponents' off guard, I also have an ASSALUT (dropping deeper with disciplined tight marking seems to work) that I tweaked as a backup tactic.

Maybe it's not news for you guys, I just rarely use different formations. I usually have a base tactic with attacking/defending variations.

Another thing, if a tactic is working but you're down on goals, you just have to persist and it will eventually work out. And if you don't park the bus on a slim lead in the last 5 minutes, the opponent is almost always certain to score.
