Hello everybody and thanks for reading this.I'm currently playing at Borussia Dortmund, I'm in my second season, won the league in first.My team is playing some nice football but the problem is that I concede way to many goals, and my opponents have way to many CCC per game.Against the bigger teams I get absolutely destroyed, as the results prove.

Juventus squashed me with 6-1 last season in the second leg of the UCL last 16 after I won at home 2-1.
Bayern won 5-3 against me this season after last season I won all the games against them.
Real Madrid won both of the games against me this season in the UCL group stages, 3-2 and 3-0 at the Bernabeu.
Manchester United beat me with 2-0 last saeson in the UCL group stages but I managed a lucky 2-1 win at OT.

So I think the problem is not only that I concede too many goals against the bigger teams, but I don't have any answer offensively for them also.

Last season I conceded 39 goals in the league which is way too much if you ask me, and this season I already conceded 17 after only 16 games.

Here is my tactic:

Any suggestions please ??? My attacking game is working very well also, I either win by a big margin, either struggle for a draw.

Thanks.

I'd say with the bwm running around the midfield to chase down opponents, the two complete wing backs getting forward and Gundogan with his PPM "gets forward whenever possible" that you're leaving the two centre backs far, far too exposed.

And how can I change that ? I switched my BWM to defend and set my CD with a Cover Role.

Also, I created a similar tactic for away games, only that I play on counter, the 2 fullbacks are now wing back automatic and the two IF are now on Support.

I also changed my strikers role to False 9 because I don't think he is involved in the game as much as I would want him to be, what do you think ?

A BWM is still likely to chase around the pitch, no matter what duty you have him on. I'd think about setting it to CM - D or even pulling him back into the DM strata and having him as a DM. Using one CB on cover when you're trying to use an offside trap isn't a good idea either.

From what I've tried, false 9's like to play with nobody in the amc spot, so they can drop into this space, and play balls to the two inside forwards.

Also, have a quick read of this - http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/366111-How-to-Play-FM14-A-Twelve-Step-Guide
