THat said, if he plaied offensive or very offensive style, practically his defenders where at 3/4 field covering for all the midfielders you had there, since your ST was practically a lone wolf. On the other side, if you pitched "your own", means you waited the opponent to enter your half before pressing. I am not a veteran but whenever i fight heavy offensive midfields i alwais use full pitch. Breaking them and catching the ball before it goes into your own quarter is vital. YEs you might mark and be covered with a counter, but letting them take initiative soon or late will bring out some goals, expecially with 2 AMC unguarded.
