I would like to propose adding a third slot for testing tactics, with the restriction of being only allowed for formations different from the top Hall of Fame. The reason is that many of us want to test different tactics, but give priority to improve our best. Having a slot exclusive for different tactics would provide a higher variability, and possibly find some tweaks that wouldn't be tested otherwise. Maybe, make the third slot only available for plug and play formations, as well as not in the top 3 of Hall of Fame.
To be clear, the limit of tactics per day is a good thing, since it allows people to not wait forever for their tactics to be tested, and to avoid people hogging the test for themselves as it happened in the past.

If you are using my training schedule, then you want double intensity when full heart, and no pitch or gym work otherwise. Some people also use double when 80%, but that also seems to increase injuries.
When a tactic is tested, we get a message in recent activity, but need to click it to see the score of the tactic. I would like to suggest adding the score of the tactic in that Home Page screen, so we can click only the ones that interest us instead of clicking all of them to see the score.
Please, add an option to clean multiple messages at once from inbox (and outbox). My DMs have been full for a long time, and I am really not willing to clean it up one by one.
Player Instructions All: Tackle Harder OCB: Shoot Less Often and Take More Risks AWB: Sit Narrower, Cross From Byline and Shoot Less Often IF: Stay Wider
Opponent Instructions: None, and only recommend people to use if they know what they are doing.
Light version when you have a comfortable lead: Ease Off Tackle for all players, Stay On Feet, reduce one step in Trigger Press and Tempo, set mentality to Positive, and change IFs to IWs. The goal of this version is to avoid injuries and cards, at the cost of performance.
Set pieces and training are in the attachments. Training uses two schedules, one for rebalance (Physical x1) and one for growth (Attack x6, or 2x in three different days), and they are divided equally (alternate every week or month). Make sure to leave three rest sessions after every match, double intensity when full energy, and no pitch or gym training when below full condition. I also set everyone for Quickness focus, and train them in any role of their position with focus on pace and acceleration (highlighted attributes). Pictures for people on consoles are below. Training and Set Pieces
Credits to everyone in FM-Arena who did small experiments which gave hints to what might be working well in this patch. Probably there will be a better tactic inspired by this one in the next hours or days, so I am just happy to contribute.
Same as Autumn 2.09, but with backline instructions of 2.03. Flank players crossing from byline, paired with progress through the middle. The logic here is to progress as much as possible through the middle, then pass to flank players when they are closer to the goal, so they need to run less with the ball before crossing.

Both fit with two matches, just alternate them so you get a middle ground effect between both schedules.
Cheers.
Thanks, it feels much better now!
