Have you set the formation to 41212? Move the right stick right to see what chemistry each person is on. It's possible they're in the wrong position as all should be on 9 or 10 chem.
Oh and buy a cheap BPL manager. That'll give you +11 chem.
I don't think 5atb teams work at all this year because you just have no pressure on the midfield.

Its my default formation but im trying to play differently so ive switched to 4-3-1-2 with all central guys, its more fun for possession but i lose more than i win with it.
Try 41212(2), the added CDM really helps over 4312.
To be honest, I've not tried a 5atb formation this year.
I've had my current Brazilian side for 40 odd games, comfortably the longest I have had any team. It's so solid and having Neymar just means you will always create chances.
