Everyone has noticed that indeed, from time to time, you win games that you should not. And the other way round too. But do not make confusion between what "you see" in the live animation and what happens in the heart of the game engine. I agree that animations are mostly cosmetic but I completely disagree about the fact that tactical changes have no effect. Switching 4-5-1V from flanks to middle DO have an effect even if it's not shown by animations. But there are things that animations will show you. For instance, play with normal or offensive settings: every time you'll see your players starting their attacking moves from THEIR side, you are 100% certain that they'll eventually lose the ball and that you are in danger. If you go for defensive, you'll see dangerous (sometimes successful) attacking moves starting from your side.
