What you'll see here is rapid, quick pass and go and many through balls which lead to plenty of 1v1s and goals.
1 thing to notice is that you'll rarely get more than 50% possession due to constantly trying that through ball.
I took Wrexham from league 1 to premier league in constant promotions and now sit top of premier league 4 seasons in.
I also tried the tactic on a previous Man Utd save I had and got same results.
Won the league with Man Utd 3 seasons running and each time was by more than 12 points.
Current Wrexham save I'm 12 games in, 11 wins with 1 loss but sit top with huge goal difference.
I then realised everyone tests tactics with Liverpool, so loaded up a fresh game and holidayed a full season. Liverpool absolutely blitzed it.
The images show how powerful this tactic is. goals after goals in every game.
Hopefully you guys can give it a spin and let me know how you get on.
type of players required = vision and speed
Liverpool test
Man Utd test
Wrexham test

I have now used this across 2 FM saves (Barnet and Aston Villa) and it's safe to say that this might be the best formation I've ever used. Goals literally would flow. Your CAMS would end up winning the golden boot, either of the three of them dependent on who wants it more. I love it so much - thanks MrLarnz - you single handedly saved my Barnet job.
I found that with this tactic you would most likely always have less possession than your opponent but this would mean nothing when the goals start flowing. I also had to remove the get stuck in because I dont like red cards unnecessarily
