Over the last three months, I'd say I was in the Defend tactic about 75% of the time. I was in Attack most of the rest of the time, but that was a 2 DM tactic. I've changed it during the break to be more attacking and have my standard be a bit more like the old attacking tactic and that will be my default tactic.

2/8/2016: Division (A): Win 1-0 vs. Osnabrück.

2/14/2016: Division (H): Win 1-0 vs. Kaiserlautern. First half was played in Defend with Stark and Stahl in the DM spots and Bouy in AMC. At half time, We switch to Standard, moved Bouy into Stahl's spot and subbed on Yunus Malli for the AMC position. I wanted Malli fresh for the 2nd half. Osako scored the game's only goal in the 65th minute.

I've built a little lead in 2.Bundesliga. We have 44 points, 2nd, 3rd and 4th are tied with 38.

2/21/2016: Division (A): Lose 0-1 vs. Bochum. Standard for most, Attack after the 70th minute. First lose in 14 games.

2/28/2016: Division (H): Draw 2-2 vs. Aue.
