I have read about people doing that too, but I was sort of concerned with how many goals we were conceding with my previous tactics and I really wanted my DMCs to be there to sort of help my centrebacks clean out the middle, and also be the starting point of any attacks, so I don't want them to be too up forward. I may try and play with it at some point, especially when I get a game where I'd want some extra offensive push.

Playing the two centrebacks pulled back, I feel like they are both playing like sweepers, and the feeling I really get is that they do clean the box out of any rebounded balls the keeper could have let go inadvertantly...
