Best advice I can give you, is, make the opposite, what AM says:

Some examples:

-) I started playing defensive+counter, took the lead 1:0, turned off counter at halftime (SoT: 3:3). At ~50 he told me, I should use counter, because of our fast player. I didn't, finally won 4:0, SoT 10:4. (opponent didn't watch)

-) I won first cupleg 3:0 at home. At 2.leg at ~35' he told me, to play offensive, because a draw isn't enough.

-) I was down 0:2 at home after 25', AM told me, to play more offensive. I set hard defending, counter on, MC back to DMC, won 5:2.

-) He often tells, we have no control at midfield... but we use 3 MC, maybe possession bonus is active,... and possession is 60/40 to us. So... what?
