[3-2-5 Attacking Shape from 4-2-3-1 DM AM Wide ----- GORGEOUS football]

I’m trying to use this system in my Newcastle save. I switched from 433 to 4231 recently to improve my attacking threats. However, I often find that my wingers and strikers are not getting enough support and hence my team is not scoring. I tried to push the 2 dm up to the cm position and drop LW RW to LM RM. With this 4411, my team performs a lot better in attacking but not doing so great at defending and possession. If I make changes that ask my team to defend better and control the game more, they can’t score again… I just can’t seem to get the balance right

Yeah, I'm trying to implement it in my Journeyman save but I have the same feeling. I'm trying to think what I could change. Maybe IF(s) with stay wider helps it a lit bit and provide more support to Advanced Forward. If you figure out something, let us know. Hehehe

Yeah the PF would be a good choice. I wrote about strikers quite recently and how to select the best role to fit your tactics.

Thanks! I'll read it and think about the change I've made.

Hey Cleon! I really liked this thread!

One question: I tried to use the same formation/instructions that you said before but I changed the role of F9 to DLP on support, the Roaming Playmaker to Advanced Playmaker on support and HB to Anchor.

I really like the possession game but I think that sometimes I cannot score because my players is playing safe and cant create a lot of opportunities. Do you have any advice here?

What can I do to be a little more agressive or create more chances to score?
