Issues with opponents getting stronger after red cards

[Farfromtilidie]

I was not saying that you should defend.If you´ve read my post more openminded,you would understand that i was just talking about what i saw in your screenshots,i cant say to you what to do.Dont you find strange having more players and less shots?!?If it was my own team,and i saw those numbers despite they having less players then me,i would be concerned.Picking up your own words,if they have less men then they could use counter (that´s the reason for my example of playing against my friend several times and even thought my team is way better i can only win 1 or 2 times cause i play offensive and offside-trap on and he plays normal and counter with players defending on their own half,using an amc).If your defenders are slower than his atackers,for example..you will have to uncheck the offside-trap and put more players in the middle as possible to gain ground (using an dmc,for example) and if you have more players then what´s the problem using only 3 men back (wide),4 in the midle and 3 on the front or even using only 2 st´s and organizing the players as you wish to gain all ground possible.But again,i am saying this cause if it was me i would change things...I am just trying to help you or other "manager" that reads this post to reduce their error.I am not saying that the program isn´t wrong,i am just trying to help finding solutions to something that could be tricky.That´s all.

I appreciate the assistance but I'm not really sure my general tactics are wrong - I'm currently 2nd in my league (would be top but for GD), in the QF of the CL and in the QF of the cup. My problem is that I haven't figured out how to deal with the opposition losing players, my logic is that attacking them and pressing them should help me beat them but apparently not!

Also if you want further evidence then this is my most recent match against the side in 4th place in my league (who are also handily my next opponents in the CL). Maybe someone at Nordeus is listening?!
