Tactic was used with Spurs and i've used it for 5 seasons in a row with almost 0 tweaks and only adjusting small instructions while in a game. All games were played, No Holiday, No Instant Result, No Save Scum. Won 4/5 UCL, 5/5 PL Titles and all the cups. Destroyed teams like Liverpool, PSG and Real Madrid in UCL finals and dominated with 2 star players against City and Arsenal.

Yes this tactic is a goal scoring machine, but unlike most other tactics it does not leave you vulnerable in defense. In attack it will feel like a 3-4-3. Your 3 CB will stay back and be a passing option in emergency situations. Your LWB and RWB will act like pure Wingers, Crossing and providing passes to your SS. In midfield one CM and one CHM. The CHM can be any player as long as it has decent pace and good finishing. I have even used Strikers on the CHM positions when i was down a goal and needed more attacking power.
The SS will act like your Right Center Forward. As you can see we have a DLF which will aim to link up your CM with your RWB. In this time your SS will take the right flank and find space there.
In defense you will have a 5-3-2 Defense with a focus on INVITING CROSSES IN. No tracking wingers means we are Vulnerable on the wing. We dont try to stop this and instead invite them to cross where we will have 7 Players in the center. Would recommend at least 2 tall CB. Managed to score over 20 Goals from Corners each season with overloading the box during set pieces. Can provide the tactic there if needed also.

On the span of 4 1/2 seasons i've used these and managed to score 20+ set piece goals in the league alone.
The tactic is "Play for set pieces" so this helps also. While the corner one is not anything unusual having at least 2 routines really helps in terms of what and how teams will try to defeng against you.
Though a majority of the goals actually came from deep / wide free kicks (ball to near post, flick to the middle for any CM to score it).
