Personally, when he says that, It's around the time in the game I'm thinking the exact same thing. Usually if my opponent's team is featured more in the "live-match" footage than my team it's because my team is giving up possession, either because they lack direction or my attackers are out of form. But I play all games with mixed passing and mixed pass focus so I have more elbow room to fix when this happens compared to others on here. Usually when I switch the pass focus to "Down Both Flanks" it helps. My attackers I guess were trying to be too fancy before, and simple, get-it-down-the-field instructions can kick start the attacking edge you are apparently lacking. But look for the signs. Did your team miss an open goal or corner-kick header? Usually a sign of a troll result. Does your team keep getting caught off-side or blocked? Usually a sign that your tactics aren't working- meaning there's room for you make them work but waiting for them to do it on their own is usually not the answer.
Sorry that this was such a long post but I do believe that you can turn results around, but blindly listening to the assistant is never the case. Do what you feel, it's your team.
PS- If switching tactics don't work, I would inject a new attacker into the game. Watch your ratings, see who's doing poorly and sub them out. Usually a fresh 6.5 is better than a struggling 6.8. I don't make subs before 65' too
