Update. Played close to 250 games now and I can say that I have overcome the difficulty that this games gives.
I play on superstar 1.02 patch and got rid of the Jenkey patch cause it made the game too easy. :S
I win against weaker teams and sometimes even against bigger ones with my 3rd season Portsmouth FC. I am fighting for europa league spot now. My advice to all of you that complain against this game:
Just stick to it. The game is beatable after a while. You just need to learn to play and ofc which tactics to use against which tactic. That makes is easy. I flamed this forum and raged at the game and I can see I was wrong now.
These are my tactics which I use and thanks to ABU97. He posted these first.
All out defense - Use the all-out attack tactic and formation on simple settings
Possession Game - Use the long-ball or all-out defense tactic and formation on simple settings (If the coach says it's best to stick to our strengths than their weaknesses, use long-ball. If not, use All-out Defense)
Quick Counter - All out defense tactic (If it says they use the physical route 1, then use 'out wide(Defensively)'
All-out attack - All-out Defense tactic and formation on simple settings
Long-ball - Use Possession Game tactic and formation on simple settings.
P.S.
I recommend for everyone to try 4-2-3-1 formation with either 2 CMFs or DMFs (whichever u got). It works very well.
