It doesn't work sadly. And with cautious there are too much gaps between forwards and others, they stay pretty high on the pitch even on defensive duty.
It conceded only 47 goals which makes it one of the best defense in the test
Also, if you want to make it even more defensive then change the duty of the Volante to Support and drop 1 Striker to AM Expand
or even stay with this 433, but don't be greedy and protect the lead just dropping mentality and make some player going support\defend or even deeper on pitch usually helps
Zippo said: In this setup(where both DM slots are occupied) FBs that have the same PIs as IWBs would work 99% the same. Expand
dunno why, but FB with cut inside doesn't move properly in undlerlaps, tending to stay on the flank until last third of the pitch IWB does them right from the central line even with double DMs p.s. or mb the problem is I don't watch highlights on comprehensive and just miss when FB does them too

from what I've seen in long saves in this FM, top clubs buy 1-3 players for 1st team and bunch of youngsters for u21 every season problem is starting, when they don't give those youngsters proper playing time to develop at club or at loan but they keep buying wonderkids like crazy
I partially accept that unwilling to sell players on last year of contract is kinda a problem, at least for players, that are clearly far away from really helping a team to achieve our goals. DoF's just trying to keep them until they starting to receive offers on free transfers at January, when he could get at least some small amount of money from selling them.

Just going with defensive duties across all positions
side BPDs on stay wide
AM w/o forward runs, but with channels
w/o any approach play
p.s. tremendous "luck" at the start of the season xD
yep, and another turtle one
DWs to IF (a), side AFs to CM (su)
Hold position on CMs, Tight marking on CM/DM
2 AFs moved to Volantes attack with move into channels
IWBs to FBs with cut inside
played by myself, almost all season with this tactic except a few matches
I consider this as very good for Villa
and I don’t even take in consideration that I failed winter period due to lack of rotation

All out attack with volantes even moving to channels
WBs on defensive w/o forward runs, BPDs w/o dribble
16th
triple AF just give the right width like with IFs

IWB does them right from the central line even with double DMs
p.s. or mb the problem is I don't watch highlights on comprehensive and just miss when FB does them too
IF on su
Wingers on support, double pivot pair of DLP(de) and SV (a)
near post corner routines

FBs, DMs on Take fewer risks, others on Risk more
corners only on near post
mezzalas on cross more + shoot less
+trying AF with risky passes
true, I've taken only pre-patch in consideration
