Don't set your mentality so defensively. Try to keep it over 20.
If you're gonna play with five defenders, consider playing with upcoming backs, since you'll have three centre-backs behind. About the midfield line, also consider ordering it to hold position instead of supporting defense - which already counts with five defenders.

Also, I don't recommend for tempo to drop below 60. I don't think a slow-paced football works here in OSM.

I used 433B..wing play,mid to stay and def to deep
Zonal
Offside trap is yes
80
90
85
Yet,I lost to 343B,shoot on sight,man marking with aggressive play.
How can I beat the team in the return leg?

[DMFArranhado98]

Well, Shoot On Sight beats Wing Play and you set the mentality too high (very attacking), so...
If your squad value isn't lower than your opponent's and if you're not playing away, consider going with 4-4-2 B, passing game, just attacking (60-80) mentality, and a slower tempo (60-80).

[DMFArranhado98]

Adjusting your tactical approaches to each match scenario, regarding your opponents' setups.

[DMFArranhado98]

Wing Play
Forwards attacking only | Midfield holding position | Defenders defending deep
Zonal marking
Offside trap ON
Offensive (70) mentality
One-touch football (80-100) tempo

[DMFArranhado98]

If you rather play with that formation nonetheless, you should use the same tactics I said above.
Although, unless you manage to build a competitive squad that can keep up with the other teams with a better objective, I advise you to play defensively instead.

Can you help me , when i should play zonal
marking and man marking i want a constant rule please

[DMFArranhado98]

Zonal marking for when your defenders outnumber the opponent forwards - otherwise, man-to-man marking

@SjanSjaak
433B
Passing Game
Marking zone
No Offside
Pressure : 71

Tempo : 53

[The_Maczmann]

@Bobby-Carter_1
433A Luxury
Wing play
Marking zone
Yes offside
Pressure : 51
Style : 72
Tempo : 65

[DMFArranhado98]

Passing Game with a 3-midfielders formation?
No offside trap with an attacking setup?
Play Possession tempo?

[The_Maczmann]

But, its work for me.

[DMFArranhado98]

Go with 4-4-2 A in order to counter a 5-3-1-1 formation playing with offside trap; otherwise, try going defensively too.
About the 6-3-1, the 4-3-3 B should be working... Maybe you need to tune in your tactics.

[DMFArranhado98]

3-4-3 demands a wing play style of play. Maybe passing game works with 3-4-3 B too, but it's such a waste not to play down the wings when lining up wingers. About the shoot on sight one, I don't play with it unless I line up five midfielders.

@instankill_NL
Using 433A wing play
Yes Offside
Pressure : 51
Style : 72
Tempo : 53

@DMFArranhado98 Thanks man,I was able to take my revenge on the manager using 334 with the 442A u suggested.. Now,I'm facing Inter with 352,shoot on sight the same formation he used to beat Barca with 2 goals to nil... What's your take on this man?

[DMFArranhado98]

If that match scenario favors you (whilst your squad value is higher than Inter's and you play at home), consider going with 4-4-2 B formation playing a passing game; otherwise, you should just go with a counterattacking approach playing in a 6-3-1 formation.

[The_Maczmann]

@instankill_NL You can change the tempo to 65 instead of 53!

[The_Maczmann]

@Bobby-Carter_1 Yes, you have to build a team first so that this tactic works perfectly.

[DMFArranhado98]

But have you tried wing play with it though?
And what about enabling offside trap?
And even trying one-touch football (80-100) tempo?
