Not to the same extremes as they would in past years. Specifically in terms of losing possession, it depends on what difficulty you play at.

One other thing I forgot to note in the first post, is that as in past years, the more realistic you play, the more realistic the AI will play. For example, if you try and contain players and shut down passing lanes, they won't just run straight at you all the time. But, if you charge in for each tackle and find yourself watching players run past you after you try and make a tackle, you're going to have a bad time and no custom tactics will give you a more realistic feel.

I went and checked last night with the latest squad update and all my custom tactic settings were gone!

What I did notice however is my Team Sheets were saved, i.e. I setup a few custom Spurs Team Sheets for Europa & League cup matches and they were still present, although the edits made to each teams "custom" tactic were gone.

I guess this is a non issue if you can edit the CPU custom tactic in CM prematch, I wasn't aware that was possible.

So say I want to use these, as I have in years past and they helped greatly. Great work as usual, man! Anyway, I want to use them, but I'm three games away from finishing my first season with Leicester. Will I be forced to start a new career or can these be implemented to my current career somehow?

Apparently you can at least input your opponents tactics in before each game. Therefore you can keep playing your current CM without starting over.

haha, sorry guys, I thought this one was obvious. All you have to do is have a second controller plugged in. You take control of the CPU before you start the match. Fairly straightforward.

I think you have to have selected in your career mode creation screen the ability to "control AI team" or something?

Otherwise, yeah, you just click the Select Sides button, take control of the CPU team, and you're off and running. You can even do that in the middle of a match.
