I use it.. Stay back on the 2 CMs, cover wide, front 4 to stay forward and full backs on balanced. Can occasionally get caught on counter but generally is fine for me

Does your build up play not suffer with your two CMs on stay back? I actually switched from 4231 to 433(4) as there was far too big a gap in between my midfield and forwards when I had my two CDMs staying back.

Not really.. On the counter maybe but if I'm on the counter the front 4 is enough to do the job. If I'm not countering I'll set up an attack where they'll be just off the edge of the box for late runs in or to switch the play easily. Using essien and IF ndidi as the 2 CMs if that helps (but will be switching ndidi to base ballack at the weekend assuming 2 of the swaps icons are easy to get)
