Update: 05/09/2014 - Two new version (Counter & Standard)
Trophy Collector
My tactics aren't always that popular by the FM Base members, but still I want you to introduce a new one. This time it is called the Trophy Collector. It has a solid base and a creativity forward. In five Premier League games I managed to score 20 goals (!) and I already faced Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea. And I just conceded 4 goals with Arsenal FC. Season 1, no transfers and LFCMarshall's update.

I know, I didn't play a full season but look at the results against the top teams I already faced.

-- Tactical tips --
D-Line play - I use the D-line play I have learned from Jassar's thread. Thanks to that! The D-line play is very simple to use. When you're facing a stronger opponent, make sure you go to the team instructions and select 'Push higher up' instead of 'drop deeper'. Sometime it is very usefull to use this option against very solid teams when you have to score that late goal.
Tip: Copy (Import the tactic twice) the standard tactic and select the option 'Push higher up' and set in slot 2, to make your team get used to this option.
For more information about D-line play you can go to Jassar's tactic thread and see the opening post.
Switch mentality - Sometimes it is usefull to switch the mentality. If you need to score a goal than switch to the attacking or controlling mentality. But if you need to hold on the score than you can switch to the counter or defensive mentality. Personally, I don't use this very much, but if you have great experience with this switch than I advice you to use this tweak.
Tip: Copy (Import the tactic twice) the standard tactic and select the mentality that you're using very often and set in slot 2, to make your team get used to this mentality.
Opposition instructions - Tactic has preset opposition instructions built into it, so make sure you don't ask your Assistant Manager to set OI for you. Only the defenders (and the outside midfielders or wingers) of the opposition team has OI's. If you want to use your own OI's than go ahead, mate.
What kind of striker - As you can see in the Arsenal selection screenshot above I have two strikers who play often, Podolski and Giroud. But in this tactic you need a Podolski type to get results from your strikers. This tactic isn't made for a Giroud type. So I think I am going to replace Giroud for Campbell or Sanogo. They have both not that good statistics, but I know they will play better in this tactic than Giroud.
Want to tweak the attack? - You can set the AML to winger and give him the instructions like the AMR. I have chosen for these AML instructions because I want to put Ozil or Cazorla as an AML. So, if you have a squad with excellent wingers, make sure you tweak the tactic.

TROPHY COLLECTOR. V1

At version 2 you can untick the team instruction 'through the middle'.
You need to change one thing in this tactic..
Go to OI - And select the opposition AMR and AML. Make sure it is set as below..
Opposition AMR > Show onto left foot. And the opposition AML > Show onto right foot.

I know, in the example above it isn't an AMR I selected, but I didn't want to wait till I would face a team with an AMR.
