Both DM roles to Volante (a). Added Underlap. 89 points with Forest, looked good.
Swapped regista and volante.
MeanOnSunday said: There are strikers faster than Haaland in the game but they don’t perform as well because they don’t have stats close to him in all the other areas.

Single attribute test also show that agility, balance, jumping reach and dribbling are very important. I don't think there is any striker who is overall higher than Haaland in these attributes (tied with Mbappe prob).
Question in title.

There seems to be some obvious changes from last year, such as high LOE + Low def line being the default option last year, but now everything is much higher + much higher.

Sorry if it's been asked before.
Tested with Forest, default set pieces.

IW+WB overlap on left side
Winger (a) + IFB on right side.
AF+CF combo
AF and CF swapped position.
DM -> Regista
Asymetrical shape and loopsided attack/defense
Tested with Everton, default set pieces, -10 point deduction.
Just moved IF to AM.
https://fm-arena.com/thread/7889-343-everton-asym-2/ - with Regista x 2 + get further forward.
Tweaks the original 343 Everton Asym. Default set pieces, tested with Everton (-10 point deduction)

Well no player has decisions as their only skill, so how does that even matter.
WBs - Close down less, mark tigher, dribble more, stay wide
CMs - Take more risks, move into channels, dribble more tackle harder
DWs - Take more risks
AFs - Dribble more, tackle harder, mark tighter
343 asymetric formation to use Danjuma in his best position. Default set pieces.
CM(s) on stay wider, get forward
Godfrey as WCB because he he got great ratings consistently. Tried WCBx2 but conceded more with it.
A tactic I've been testing with Everton. Default set pieces. Not sure how it will work in FMarena because some instructions are there to take advantage of Beto+DCL who are both fast and tall (like having mixed crosses).

SS- Roam from position.
BWM - Hold position, take fewer risks.
WBs - More direct passing, stay wider
Default set pieces. Positive mentality and a few other minor changes from similar deep 442s.

Tested with Everton.
Tested with Luton. Set pieces and training left to the assistant.
Delicious said: But literally set pieces were making like 3-5 points average on FM23

Is the difference between optimized set pieces and default really that little, with CBs scoring 20+ goals?
Mix of over/underlap
1 IW wide, 1 IW narrow.
