A tweaked version of the DingDong 4132 posted a few days ago. Achieved 105 points with Liverpool in the PL with Salah scoring 57 goals on the way to the team achieving a treble.
Holiday tested with no FM editors used and AM picking team and doing training
Added team instructions -
Force opposition outside Higher defensive line Use tighter marking
A 4132 that has performed very well in my real Madrid save (won the league 4 times and CL 3 times) and performed brilliantly in a quick Liverpool test.
It is very strong going forward and in defence. Strikers seem to score for fun.
Took influence some of the tactics of the top of the table and around the analysis that has been done recently
As a Bolton fan, the 451 or 433 or 41221 or whatever you want to call is, is close to my heart as this was the formation Big Sam used when we were mixing it up with the likes of Atletico Madrid in Europe.
The roles aren't the same, but I wanted to at least keep the shape . Its took me a while to get this tactic to a place where I was comfortable sharing it with the FM world.
As per with all my tactics, I tested it with Liverpool and Villa. No FMRTE used. Training and Team Selection left to AM.
Liverpool achieved 101 pts and won the quadruple
Villa achieved 74 pts with the 2nd best defence in the league and 5th placed finish
An attacking 532 (strikerless) tactic, tested with Liverpool and won the quadruple. Achieved 104 points in the league. No FMRTE used. Training and team selection left to AM.
tested with Villa, predicted 18th pre season, so overachieved in the end and a cup final. Some belting results along the way too but some bad results too to be honest
Just to show that no FMRTE was used as some big injuries
Created a 41311 based on the superb tactical analysis ZaZ did. For the roles I didnt always go with the top rated as I wanted to try something slightly different.

A variant of the Tarantula Hawk AF CB tactic (https://fm-arena.com/thread/1164-tarantula-hawk-af-cb/), removed counter press and added regroup. Achieved some really good results with Liverpool and Villa. Holiday tested with no FMRTE used and AM doing training and team selection.
107 pts with Liverpool and all but FA Cup won, 52 goals from Salah
5th place finish with Villa and an FA Cup, Watkins with 38 goals
**holiday test, training and team selection left to AM, no FMRTE used**
Had success with this using Villa, Its a 433 but with no midfield or strikers, WBs have get further forward and cross from byline added to ensure they get up the field as much as possible when they have the ball, effectively trying to make the WBs more winger esq
I performed another test with Liverpool, won everything bar the Carabao Cup
Grimlock said: 'Overlap' is a quite useless TI, the only what it does is increasing the fullback mentality about 5%. Most of time it's presence is unnoticeable. It has no effect on the forwards runs. Expand
A solid 4-3-2-1 tactic that produces a lot of goals and concedes very little.
Tested with both Liverpool and Villa, no FMRTE used and team selection and training left to AM. Some screenshots -
Liverpool averaged 102 pts over the 3 tests, averaging 103 scored and just 16 conceded
Villa averaged 79 pts over the 3 tests, averaging 80 goals scored and 39 conceded
I ran the tactic through my own test 6 times, 3 times with Liverpool and 3 with Villa. I capture data from each test and work out an average. Tactic put in to all 3 tactic slots, team selection and training left to AM. No FMRTE used. Analysis -
