Yes, absolutely. 433 specifically works really well for it I've found because you can keep the same midfield 3 which gives a lot of solidity in the middle. 4231's problem for me is that I don't like CAM as a role in FM when it's behind a lone striker, I don't like their interplay. If it's a CAM behind two strikers it works much better for me. What I've been trying recently with my Chelsea team is this: The IF ends up being the main goalscorer for me with this so far. I tried multiple roles for the CAM and so far AP-A works with the lone striker, but I'd need to test it with other teams first to be sure whether I truly like it or not because my Chelsea team is really stacked with talent so it's a bad example of what does/doesn't work since the league isn't as balanced as it should be in the year 2041. 442 is a good formation for this style of football too, it becomes really hard to break down.

I'm currently in 2041 in a save and managing Chelsea. Throughout the entire save I've been using variations of my original tactic. This is the one I've landed on for Chelsea that pretty much guarantees results for a top team if you build the team properly. It's not that different than what I was originally using, but the small tweaks I made definitely made a difference for me. I've won everything there is to win at Chelsea. When I joined them in 2031 they were a mid-table team with multiple 33+ year old players so I was able to rebuild them as I liked which helped.
