Interesting... I've never tried giving a striker just the target man instruction as I usually pair it with stay central. Does Balotelli ever drift wide or does the target man instruction alone pretty much keep him central? Also does he drop to ask for the ball at his feet or does he mainly just back into his marker? Wondering if there's any differences to having the target man instruction alone instead of stay central + target man.
I really like your combination of Insigne and Coutinho. Sounds like when things go the way they're supposed to they pretty much swap positions in attack. As I was driving to work today, which shows how much FIFA is on my mind, I thought about trying a 4-2-3-1 with Osasuna. Not the first team, which I want to keep at 4-4-2, but there are times when Davila will replace Palacios and play as striker next to Guillermo. Davila has been outstanding as a lone striker with the B-Team, but paired with another striker he's only been decent. So I thought about the 4-2-3-1 with Davila at CAM and Guillermo at ST whenever Palacios isn't on the field, and now I'm thinking of doing something similar to your tactics where Davila is given the free roam instruction, and Torres told to come short an cut inside. Davila being much faster could drift wide while Torres moves in like a CAM.
I also liked your back line instructions. I used to give my RCB the instruction to join the attack, but when I started to use wingers as full backs it didn't work out anymore. Seeing your tactics I really enjoy how it appears your team changes to a 3-2-2-1-2 (3-4-1-2) in attack, and I love it when teams convert to 3 at the back.
