    I normally don't use it. I use this tactics anytime I face the defensive style: normal, mixed/ down both flanks, short passes, force counter-attack, low pressing, normal tackling, zonal marking, no offside trap

    I always win defensive teams using this tactic and in most cases I keep a clean sheet

    Offside trap should only be used if you're attacking, and then only if the opposition don't have fast players that they can counter-attack with.

    Have a look at the opponents players - if he has players with high speed %, then leave offside trap off, as they can beat it.

    it depends on the different in strength with you and your opponent,

    if about equal strength : begin with normal mentality, OFF counter attack

    use attacking mentality if your team much stronger, and ON offside trap,

    don't worry to ON offside trap when facing 4-4-2, because 4-4-2 is really suck at counter attacking

    If your team much weaker, use defensive mentality, ON counter attack, low press, OFF offside trap
