Anyone have any preferred tactic or formation to stop being dominated and have more control in home games.

I'm currently playing a diamond system with players all in their correct positions with a short passing and pressing tactic with a high temp.

Been winning in pre-season pretty comfortably against decent teams. Yet my first two home games i've been beat comfortably

Results:
Liverpool 2-4 Southampton
Liverpool 2-4 Stoke

I score plenty of goals just keep conceding and i seem to let the opposition have way too many shots

First game shots Me 7 Opposition 33
Second game shots Me 14 Opposition 28

This is way too many shots for an away team to have. Just wouldnt mind some ideas on how to restrict the opposition from taking too many shots

Funnily enough my possession is always way more than theirs. Usually 65/35.

Cheers

Seems to me like you're getting caught on the counter, since your possession is so superior. With such a narrow formation it's important that your full-backs are not set out to be attacking and that your DM sits in front of the defence to protect them.

Post a screenshot of your tactic, including the part where we see your philosophy, outlook and shouts, so we can better analyse it

Perhaps also screenshot the match stats of the two games. It depends on the quality of the shots you are facing. If most of them are hopeful, speculative long shots, then it's not that big a deal...
