4-3-3 HB: Control and Conquer!

A physically taxing, high pressing, short passing attempt to dominate possession and get numbers forward. Threats out wide and through the middle, goals come from all areas.

You'll need a 22++ player squad high on work-rate and technical ability.

GK: Rushing out, passing, first touch.

CWBs: Stamina, acceleration, crossing, dribbling.

CB: Acceleration, pace, concentration are desirable, as are jumping reach and heading.

BPD: Passing, dribbling, vision, first touch etc.

HB: Defensive positioning, strength, tackling.

Advanced playmaker (attack): dribbling, balance, technique, acceleration, vision.

DLP (support): Passing, Vision, etc.

Inside forwards (support): pace, acceleration, work rate, first touch, finishing, and decent stamina.

Complete forward (attack): You can probably use any forward type here. In order of appropriateness I'd say: CF (a), PF (a), DLF (a)

Some PPMs:

Important:

- Your CWBs cannot be complete defensive numpties or there will be a flood of goals from wide areas.

- In harder games esp away from home consider harder tackling, lowering tempo and even balanced mentality if necessary. You're gonna have a bad time if you're not controlling the game.

- In easier games consider slightly higher tempo, mentality, width, using two CWBs and one IF on attack (the one in front of your defensively stronger CWB).

- You need to rotate.

- Crossing: depending on your centre forwards attributes.
