I can never seem to get a 4-4-2 diamond to work... I've not really created many of my own tactics, but the ones i have i've faired well! Now i'm pretty sure i know alot about football, i've watched it for over 20 years and i play at a fairly good standard... so it frustrates me when i can't seem to get the diamond formation to work! e.g with teams like liverpool and man utd, knowing how both teams play i should be able to give simelar player instructions on FM as they would have in real life and would hope to get simelar results. Obviously when i try and make a diamond for lower league sides, i expect teething problems... which i'm willing to work on and try to correct. But if i play a diamond with my strongest utd team, results never seem to happen!? To cut a long story short, what i'm asking is... does anyone have a decent diamond they could let me download, because it's my favourite formation and i'm getting upset not being able to use it!

Any help will be very much appreciated! Hope i haven't bored the arse off you!
