Will you try this out ?
Since the football manager World Cup or championship, the use of the full back on attack has increased.
Most top tactic creators, as we all know, use a 4231
With various meta instructions like high tempo, short passing, and a much higher line.

But a current feature of meta tactic is the man marking of opposition full backs with your LW and RW.

So how do I go against the meta?
I won't be going fully against the meta as my instructions will still include short passing, higher tempo but with a higher line. 4231

After the recent Chelsea, City game where we saw gvardiol as forward as ever. I remember the Liverpool days under klopp where trent was delivering assist after assist. Most of my recent tactics limits the wing backs end product, recording less G/A.

But now I use a wing back on support with cross aim centre, dribble more and cross from byline on one of my
Wing backs and the other has get forward, cross aim centre and dribble more.

So instead of being the one to mark the opposition full backs/wingbacks. My wingbacks are the threat.
