Can you guys suggest what to change to score more? Or more frequently 😅 
Defensively its so good(which was the plan) but offensively its not it.

How good are your 2x strikers aerial / strength?

• if high, that’s good
• if low/mid, then try using WMs and a mixed passing focus (not both flanks)

Are you open to changing your central MC role?

• to be more attacking (but defensively dodgy), you could move him to AMC.
• to be more defensive (but offensively worse), you could move him to DMC.
• Or even better - move him to DMC and change his role to RP 🔥

Poacher has 14 aerial 13 strength, TF has 16 aerial and 15 strength.

7 games only 1 clear cut chance, I would suggest to convert the Anchor to DM RP but I see that Dan English  has already done it.

Now do you have 4 clear cut chances in two match, so Your problem it's not only in midfield shapes.

I saw few things in statistics:

1) low converting rate of total shoots in shoots on target, especially for midfielders

2) very low rating of cross completed (krainz) that, with early crosses ON and a TF, would be a gap 

2) high offside rating in 3 of 7 first games (4 or more)

 

In my experience, but maybe wrong, after the update the couple TF - P doesn't work so much except if you have world class players and, in any case, it's more suitable for horizontal play (classic tiki taka) and not for vertical (I see you set on "through balls") because the AI tend to prevent your P vertical movement  with offside trap.

So  I suggest surely to set off "shooting on target" (with creative freedom to "expressive" and two BBM, the squad would try in any case  to shoot on target when possible, in that case you should turn on "work in the box") and low the game speed to normal. These would produce better statistics in shoots on target and crosses. 

Added to this, If you'll see some improvements in shoots and crosses but not in goals scored, try to change forwards shape (PF o AF, combination of these or other combination where at least one forward was a PF, AF or SP)
