Reasonably high defensive line without using the offside trap. Therefore you need your centre-backs to be as fast as possible.
Build up utilizes shorter passing, avoids dribbles and aims to work ball into the box.


For best results, you need:
- Quick CB's & ST's.
- Wingers with 15+ work rate and teamwork.
Before every game, I recommend asking your right winger to mark the opponents left winger and visa versa.
