The tactic utilises a winger and an inverted winger, with a full back and wing back respectively supporting them behind.

In the case of this tactic, I have used Rice as the Half Back as he slots nicely into the back 3 with Gabriel and Saliba either side whilst in possession.
This means that Zinchenko (Wing Back) and Hakimi/White (Full Back) can push forward to support the midfield and attack.
Saka has been used as a winger and scored 45 goals with 21 assists.
Martinelli produced near equally impressive figures with 32 goals and 15 assists from the left wing, I did interchange his role sometimes to winger/inverted winger, depending on opposition.
The strikers will also score a huge amount of goals, Osimhen with 32 goals and 13 assists with Ferguson, understudy, still weighed in with 24 goals and 4 assists despite only starting 17 games.
This tactic fully revolves around the midfield being as fluid as possible with the full backs. The mezzala position has been used by Odegaard who registered 26 assists from that position as he moves in the channel with the full back pushing from behind.
The BWM next to him enables the team to remain defensively solid and whilst being a defensive role, Havertz and Tchouameni rotated and delivered 12 goals and 21 assists.
As you can see, goals will be shared amongst the team using the tactic, the full backs/wing backs produced nearly 50 assists.
Some key results being 10-0 at home v Newcastle, 9-1 a Home to West Ham, 11-0 at home to Leicester and 8-1 at home to Burnley.

ich roque - Hakimi was listed for £43m, don't know why!
Osimhen - Release clause
Ferguson - Brighton were relegated so went cheap/
I also had a decent budget to start and cleared a lot of players, Jesus for 70m odd , Partey went to Utd and a lot of deadwood.
Key is to spread the payments when buying.
Agree on Havertz, he was back up to Tchoumeni, I didn't want to change the role as it affects the rest of the team.
Saka was a winger because I wanted to keep the RW more towards the touchline. He scored 45 goals that season so I've stuck with it.
Tackling - Stay on feet because I don't want too many cards and I think it creates less dangerous situations. I don't think the Get Stuck In or Stay on Feet affects the counter situation too much.
Feel free to change roles as you see fit, would be interesting to see how you do !
Some questions:
-why you put kai havertz as BWN? he is very poor in defensive qualty.
- why you put saka as winger and not inv. wing? the movement is the same with the difference taht with inv Wing. he can also use the correct foot sometimes.
Why you put less tackle with high pressing? it seems counter intuitive
Thanks in advance
