If you are using counter pressing or in transition instructions, it can be a good idea to remove counter pressing and opting to go regroup instead. You can do this if you notice the AI attacking you aggressively suddenly.
Its a good idea to find out which are your key positions on the pitch. Every formation will have one. This is a 433DM formation, where the DM plays a critical role, he protects the defenders allowing your wingbacks to launch attacks.
To find out your critical positions find out what their interceptions/90 are, chances are there could be players in central midfield who are fulfilling that job. When they get tired they could start to waver.
If the AI makes a substitution and brings on fresh legs.

Hi m8. Got a bit stuck with the current tactics, can´t seem to get over the 12th position with Leeds Utd, though having a quite good squad. I concede too many goals and my CBs can´t seem to get a decent score. Any recommendations? Both my CBs are pace 15 so shouldn´t have(+)

I doubt you need a DLP(D) maybe go with a DM(D) or a halfback. DLP in midfield could still be fine. On the right flank can’t tell if the winger is on attack or support, but I would try a support duty there with a WB(s) instead of a CWB. Could shore things up.

I have a different tactic set up for these and always switch to that when I go 2-0 in a bigger game slow the play down time wasting ect works more times than not for me
