I've not used a sweeper GK, which may be worth a try. I also occasional use just a higher DL.

I did not believe this myself but even a non ME update destroyed the teams form. This was Lpool 2024 Alpha and after the update went from winning nearly every game to losing nearly every game. I re run season same tactic and all was back to normal.
I therefore advise not updating mid season.

May years ago with GOODBYE 3430 I did re train Kane. Current attribute thinking would be better TO USE those with pace and acceleration over ST or AM. LPool would be mostly AM.

Did you update mid season?
wvrdvn said: Hi Knap, is this better than Phoenix 23 4213 42121 LP P108. I’m assuming the same out of possession and in possession instructions. GK on ease of tackles. Only individual instruction? I’m on console.

Slightly different GK Tackle Hard
