It's been a hard start to this season so far, can't really get the tactics to work properly and because of this results have been pretty bleak.
Won 7, drawn 3 and lost 1 so far with a 31-7 goal difference in all competitions. Can't say I'm pleased at the moment.
Hm, I feel for you. You did good last season. I was expecting you would do much better this season after the signings you did this week. But you're not alone, teams "better" than mine have all struggled, especially our friends Dynamo SWAG, despite all of the 7*,8* and 9* he seems to struggle quite well to get a win or get past to the next round.

I had some problems in the 1th round and now in the 4th round in the league as well, their 2/3* or 4* play like some 6* or 7*.

Don't now what kind of formation/tactics you use either, but I would recommed to change. I never play the same formation season in - season out. It becomes to "predictable" and perhaps to "comfortable". You need to take your team and players a step further every season. See you're team as a mechanism, all pieces need to be there to get it work properly. I "experimented" a lot the last 2 seasons, and sometimes just moving your MC to left or right could do the trick. I had a player that played like sh*it and always got a rate 5. Then I moved him from the left to the right and he started to play better and scored as well. Now he is a regular rate 7 , but gets a rate 8 every time he score.

Try play offensive , mixed passingsstyle and mixed focus passing, hard tackle and zonal marking. Somehow my players play much better and they are winning the ball back in 2 of 3 times.
