I agree that this FM is very hard to get used to regarding the way to play with your team. For starters, I suggest you play with the 8.0.2 patch. Secondly, if you really really really want to be dedicated to succeeding in this game, I suggest you make a tactic which fits the quality of your players (do play with full backs though) and stick to this tactic. Now go play your first match on full match. It can be boring sometimes but you can definately see what it working and what isn't. You can play with some team and individual instructions to try and get rid of the things that aren't working. You can also focuss on the things that are working and trying to make those more dominant.
My opinion is that watching matches on extended mode it fun to watch but you can't really see what it going right or wrong. In full match mode, you see the same mistakes over and over again and you just know that you'll have to do something about that. In full match mode, you'll see these moment pretty quick while in extended mode you discover them once the match is almost over.
