Not a lot of tactics with this shape around so I tried to create a solid 352 kinda like inzaghi style with a lot of mobility in the VOL (A). Tactic did decently with Inter winning the Serie A, Super Cup and the Italian Cup.
Testing out this shape with two VOL on support and the IFs on attack. It ran pretty good with West Ham and this version seems really balanced while producing a lot of goals from the front three.
Been tweaking this shape quite a lot and Im quite happy with the way it ran. Tactic did amazing with Luton with over 100 goals scored and a pretty big GD for the team that it is.
Removed high risk TIs like pass into space and run at defense and focused only on focus play plus overlaps to compensate the lack of risk on TI panel. Also trying to see if its viable to not use counter and counter press on attacking mentality.
Changelog Roles:
WB (A) - FB (A) SS - AM (A) Changed striker duo to AF plus CF (S) combo
Also added a bunch of high risk PI´s across all positions to compensate for the lack of instructions in the tactic panel
tried to create something similiar to a more unconventional 433 in terms of roles and responsabilties, not rly sure if the IWB combo is ideal but lets give it a spin
Was curious to try a flat 4231 with 2 CMs and this ran amazing through the whole season with City with a really good offensive coverage and a pretty good defensive form for the lack of DMs in the shape. It seemed to me that the Ball Winning Midfielder is a disguised combination of a Defensive Midfielder and a regular Central Midfielder role and it offers really good balance for also assist and goal contribution while keeping the main credit to the players in front like seen in the stats.
Lets give this a run here to see if flat 4231 is better than meta 4231s with double DM.
Still trying to improve this shape somehow, this version uses Wingers instead of Inside Forwards with the combination of overlaps to stretch the pitch as much as possible while still providing goal threats from everywhere.
I tried a version with the same setup without overlaps but all that did was to increase the attacking threat of the AMC position with no real benefit to any other position so perhaps this current setup is better!

Changelog:
SS - AM (A)
Kept everything the same but just changed to an AM (A) to see how different the score can be vs a Shadow Striker.

Mentality was changed from Balanced to Attacking as we seemed to lack goals in the previous test while the defense was decent.
Changelog TI:
Added Overlaps on both sides
(Removed the Fairly Wide option on the previous test as now we are using Attacking Mentality anyway)
Changelog Player Roles:
3 BPD - 3 L (D)
Changelog PI:
Added Take More Risks to both AMC positions
We scored a lot more goals in this test while not hurting the defense that much so lets see if this is slightly better than last time!
