Hello friend,
First of all let me tell you one thing before discussing tactics. Sticking to one formation and tactic is never a good thing. Top Eleven is a football manager game, and football managers' lives is not that simple that they set a formation and tactic and use it all the seasons against every single team, no it differs every single game, if you play against weaker teams you attack, stronger teams you defend, teams with the same strength as you you decide whether to attack or defend or normal, you have to decide if you should press higher or retreat back, you have to decide of you wanna play possession short pass game or counter attacking long balls, or possession long balls if you have tree tall forwards.... This all should matter, you have to "study" your opponent, know his strength and weakness, his key players and moves, read his tactics from previous games, and THEN decide how you are gonna play.
What you are doing right now makes the job pretty easy for other tactical opponents, because they will simply play on your weak points, set a counter formation, and beat your team, even if they had weaker players. It is not about the "stars", it's about what every player is asked to do, how and when.
So first of all you need to start thinking differently, and actually understand what top eleven is about. And I am sure you are gonna enjoy this game much more.
