Have Mine:
This is for a 4-4-2 formation. Adjust to how many midfielders you have etc.

Corner Takers:- Your best attribute for corners, obviously.

Player instructions:

Goalkeeper - Default
Left Back - Offer Short Option
Centre Back - Attack Near Post
Centre Back - Stand On Far Post
Right Back - Attack Ball From Deep
Winger - Challenge Keeper
Midfielder - Lurk Outside Area
Midfielder - Stay Back
Winger - Stay Back If Needed
Striker - Go Foward
Striker - Go Foward

With this tactic, tell your team to aim the corner at the near post. With this, the person attacking the near post should make contact at goal. If not, and he misses it. The player attacking the keeper has ANOTHER chance to make contact. And if not, Then the player just standing on the far post. Should score easily. With these 3 players, make sure they have good heading stats. If it is cleared. The player lurking outside will have a nice volley/long shot.

Hope it helps :) It does wonders for me. Although, the keeper grabs the ball sometimes, and launches a counter attack. So keep more players back if your up against the likes of Reina etc. Who have a good release throw or kick.
 
Thanks :D sounds good do you happen to have a defensive one ?

Yep. Here you go mate, Let me know how you get on:

Goalkeeper - Default
Right Back - Go Back
Centre Back - Mark Tall Player
Centre Back - Mark Near Post
Left Back - Close Down Corner
Winger - Man Mark
Midfeilder - Mark Far Post
Midfielder - Stay Foward
Winger - Mark Small Player
Striker - Man Mark
Striker - Stay Foward

This isn't the best corner tactic. But stops you from conceding late goals a lot. A load of man marking due to people creeping in. But 2 men staying foward for the counter attack. Also, The post men need to be strong and have good heading. Usually a defensive mid on the far post. Hope it helps. Gets me a good clearance. What is needed.
