On paper it wouldn’t work for me, but the proof is in the pudding.
If I was setting up something similar I’d be looking to change the striker’s role to a supportive one, or at least a DLF-A or CF-A. That way the IF-A & MEZ-S will be closer to support or run past, giving more options further up field.
Speaking of the MEZ-S, the CM-A is quite a high risk partner, especially if you want an adventurous LB. I’d maybe change him to a CM-S to give a bit more cover, & in doing that the LB could change to a Left FB-A.
On the other side of the pitch I’d again want a bit more solidity, therefore I’d change the Right FB-A to a Right WB-D.
Depending on what style of play you’d like I’d also look at the instructions. I tend to play with More Urgent Pressing, & my defensive line one notch higher than the line of engagement. I also select prevent GK distribution, but don’t tend to bother with counter-press or counter as those situations tend to occur naturally for me but it’s maybe worth trying it out & seeing what works best.
In possession I tend to favour a short passing game, with a low tempo as the players work the ball into the box. However, as my time with the game is limited these days, I mainly play as big teams with top players so you might find that doesn’t work so well if you’re in the lower leagues.
