Conflicting Directions
Width in Attack vs. Narrow Shape
The tactic calls for narrow attacking play which might conflict with the wingers' width.
Defensive Line vs. High Press

Tactical Suggestions
Adjust Width
Consider increasing the width in attack to exploit the wings more effectively.

Tweak defensive line lower when facing fast counter-attacking teams.

Consider using a BWM in the double pivot to add physicality.
