Running through the wings is a fine strategy. I just haven't found any I've liked on the transfer list or youth pulls. If I found a good winger with good control, I'd definitely do that more often. Right now I'm comfortable letting Shepard hold it in the middle.

I run a flat back 5 on the 2nd row with a DF-CD-DF-CD-DF format. Sometimes I'll put the CDs together to deal with a Rainbow Feint. If Lange comes in, it's only when I need a 6th defender to close the gap for a wing forward. I like the DFs for their shot stopping ability and it's easier to rotate them since I don't have to train right/left.

If the AI holds it on the wings, i do one of two things:

1) Send Arroyo after them. He can usually get there in one action and rarely misses a tackle on the 2nd action.

2) Let him hold it there. Send someone to press him and then set up the counterattack by moving Cannon next to the keeper.
