Last tweaks that make me wonder if 4231 could be improved anymore or not, thank you!

I've already done some more testing with balanced mentality and another with underlaps but can't upload them yet, will upload later today

I personally think the double pivot of 2 DMs is better but give it a whirl and let us know how you get on

Have you considered testing 2 BWM-S instead of 2 DM-S and SS instead of AM? Perhaps, BWM will provide a slightly better option? And also, have you thought about testing force opposition outside/inside and block crosses?

forcing opposition outside/inside doesn't seem to be working, well not in my tests anyways. It leaving them options blank always seem to produce better results defensively.

In regards to the BWM, I've not tried it but I'm not a big fan of roles where the players wander, so roles like BWM, RPM, BBM.

Ill test it and share the results with you

well done! not so hopeful about balanced one, cause attacking mentality showed better results almost everytime, but so curious about Underlaps or even without both Underlaps and Overlaps. I was wondering also if Dribble More on FBs could be positive or not, cause often they make risky passes to DMs losing the ball in open spaces for the opponents (so in this cases i'd prefer them to dribble past the opponent instead of trying passes) but when it comes to pass to IFs in possession phase i'd like to have less dribble attempts by defenders.

By the way very good job, we'll see!

Yeah I don't think the balanced one will reach the heights of the attacking mentality but I am intrigued to see how the underlaps work, Interesting point about underlaps/overlaps, will have to test that. I think hold up ball works hand in hand with those options though

Exactly, that's why i always used Hold Up on all my Box Levante x Pirate tactics, and also in 4231 ones, glad that someone understood its potential ahah

Trying to see if I can get it to work on a 433, proving very tricky
