​I've been struggling to find a good tactic for my Liverpool team, and I've tried many tactics without any big success. Therefore I ended up to make my own tactic, picking up some tips here and there. My main goal was to make it a possession-based tactic, because I think this years ME would allows me making one, and because this is my football-philosophy. This is the result:

Tactic download at the end of the post.

Tactic overview:

Goalkeeper:
I choose a sweeper keeper because of my high defensive line and offside-trap. And want him to deliver short.

Fullbacks:
I want my fullbacks to be stable at the back, but also contribute at offense. I always prefer pacey defenders. Sometimes they play bad, but I think this probably is a ME problem.

Central defenders:
Strong and not to slow defenders is what i prefer. Found Skrtel/Agger most stable, used Sakho more as a fullback.

Central Midfielders:
I started using BWM's her, but the picked up very many yellow and red cards. So I choosed one Box to box player(Gerrard/Henderson) and one Deep lying playmaker(Lucas/Allen). This combination was for me the best.

Wingers:
I preferred right-footed at right and left-footed at the left. So I played Sterling/Henderson/Coutinho/Ibe at the right and Wilson(teenie)/Coutinho/Cissokho/Moses at the left. They will dribble, cross and play wide.

Strikers:
Here i choose one Complete Forward(Sturridge/Yesil) and one Deep lying Forward(Suarez/Aspas). They will score many goals. DLF will be the main threat at corners, with bringing the ball into the box from a short corner.

O.I.:
None

Looking forward to try this as soon as the attachments work. Not able to look at any of your screens, or download your tac....
 
Ill give a try to this tactic cause I like classic 4-4-2 formation and your post consists of:
1. Winning title with non-favourite team (you've overrun North London, North East London, London FC, Man Blue, Man Red, Merseyside Blue & Tyneside!)
2. You haven't done any income transfers.
3. Your topic is nicely described.

Also if I were you I would put some info about:
- results of other people (with SS);
- individual training description;
- PPM's;
- team talking;
- what players are mostly suitable to each position (for examle: CF and DLF, CBL and CBR, CML and CMR);
- tweaked tactics (strongly based on 4-4-2 formation).
But it's only my opinion.

Thank you. I hope this thread would not die.
