    To anybody still interested in this tactic: a tweak I'd suggest you make is changing the 'Step Up More' team instruction to 'Drop Off More'. I've done pretty extensive testing and it seems to improve results at least somewhat.

    Im conceding so many goals? They just counter me by passing it behind the backline?

    I can see that when I click on tactic evaluation, I get alot of messages in out of posession?
