I used a very similar setup to gain promotion from the Danish 3rd tier, but used a F9 instead of a DLF and a DM-D or A-D instead of a DLP. Positive mentality, PooD, counter press, press more often. My CM-A won player of the season!
This season I've been using a Mez-A and IW-S on the right side, a BWM-D at dm and a PF-S at striker with a Balanced mentality, counter, lower DL and LOE. Really like the versatility of the 433 DM and how effective the CM-A/Mez-A is by making those deep runs.
Thanks to everyone who posted in this thread. I've definitely drawn inspiration for my current save.
