The men of Eddie Howe form a 433 shape. From the front end of the pitch, they press high and hard with tight spacing between each line. The midfield five will move when the ball enters their zone, and the defence is still prepared to move above their line of scrimmage to follow deep runners. When used in central midfield, Joe Willock has been the most active in stepping up, although Bruno Guimaraes is still a fierce and active presser who steps up higher than what is generally expected of a "6."

This tactic was highly requested by my viewers so I had to make sure I got it right for you all. We tested with 3 teams he has managed and the results where outstanding.

Please check out the below video for the results, gameplay, and how we made this tactic. Any support is highly appreciated.

Well, for half a season it kinda worked until i needed 2 wins from 4 for the playoffs…. lost all 4 (after a 19 game unbeaten run). Started a new season, outplaying 90% of teams with ease, 7 shots on target to 2 kinda stufff….. and loosing them 2-0, can't score any more, concede for fun. don't actually blame the tactic, just the game is as it has always been, rigged to smeg so doesn't matter what i do, i'm gonna loose.

Not played the whole season, because it takes to long just to “test” the tactic.

I have to admit, that at the beginning of season1, there are too many top-players injured, so I have to user a few solid players instead.

 

Had 3 friendlys before the season and another 6 games in Serie A + 2 in CL - you can see the results in the screenshot.

 

Pretty good stats, think that could work well through the whole season.

Still receiving too much yellow cards, but that's an issue in all tested tactics.

Could probably play another 5-10 games to see if this tactic continues in this way.
