Total football 5-2-3 possession based football 60-70+%

Plug and play tactic, that abuses the roles of wide centre back ,IWB(S), libero and sweeper keeper(A). the libero will function as a defensive midfielder in attack and in defence it will press and go back to form a 5 back defence, making goals against you and due to you dominating possession very unlikely. I didn't like the IF role or IW role, as they tend to play like wingers. THE AP (A) role mitigates this somewhat, by cutting more inside ( but still a problem in the current ME). This tactic hasn't been tested thoroughly yet. however after seeing the play in 3D ME, the formation is  1-2-3-5. basically resembling current pep's Manchester city, with the IWB acting like midfielders in possession and the libero(A) as well. this creates an overload that the current AI can't handle, the midfielders wil make runs in the penalty box plus giving killer balls for the AP or F9. check this tactic out, I think this one is perhaps gamebreaking, as Im able to achieve 60+% possession against united as PSV and still winning, with the tactic not even being fully familiar, as I have been testing stuff out a lot and only using this tactic the last 7 games, never dropping pos lower than 60% and achieving 75% or more.

let me know what you think, improvements can be definitely made. but for the possession/total football lovers like me, this one is a good start.

Would be nice to see more information, more match statistics such as shots, shots on target, XG and also a league table to see how you are doing with it.
