So lately I haven't been playing how I usually play. I've been struggling stringing passes together and getting my players open to receive the ball. Do you guys ever get in a stump and if so how do you start playing better again ?

Maybe changing my formation/team ?

Here is my current squad, minus some of my subs and stuff.

I'd try playing 4-1-2-1-2 narrow or 4-3-1-2

Do you experiment with play instructions & custom tactics also?

As person before mentioned, 4-1-2-1-2 narrow is definitely the way forward

I have my RB/LB on Always overlap, that way I still technically have wingers on either side if i need to spread the play wide

Otherwise, the middle is very compact with lots of smaller triangles to help string 1 or 2 touch passes with ease, so there will almost always be someone free to pass to - if not, play it to a fullback and start over.
