Attacking through the wings while maintaining central control with deep-lying playmakers.
Width Utilization

Midfield Creativity
With an Advanced Playmaker and a Mezzala, there’s potential for fluid attacking plays.
High Press
A high pressing approach allows the team to recover the ball quickly and disrupt opposition build-up.
Defensive Vulnerabilities
High pressing may leave gaps in midfield, especially if the wingers do not track back.
Over-reliance on Full-Backs
Heavy reliance on Full-Backs for width could compromise central structure if they are caught forward.
Target Forward Usage
Target Forward at [6,3] may struggle against stronger defenders without adequate support.
Adjust Full-Back Duties
Consider switching one Full-Back to a more conservative duty to maintain defensive stability.
Reassess High Press
Assess the effectiveness of the high press; it may require adjustments to avoid being caught on the counter.
Support Roles for Wingers
Consider a more balanced duty for the wingers to ensure they can support defensive transitions.
