A more attacking mentality increases the chance to score and the chance to allow goals. While the developers have not yet stated how it works exactly, my assumption is that it works using a penalty to defenders and bonus to attackers.
This means that you need to compare your attack to the opponent defence and your defence to his attack (and don’t neglect the midfield either). I'll give a couple illustrative examples:
1. Your defenders have 20 in defensive skills, attackers have 12 in attacking skills. his defenders have 14 in defensive skills, his attackers have 5 in attacking skills. In such a case, he is not likely to score even if you play very offensively. Offensive mentality will help you score, and win, instead of good chance of drawing 0-0 otherwise.
2. You need a win. A draw won’t do, a win will make you champion: play offensively. The probability for both a win and a loss will probably increase, but you only care about the probability to win.
Do not forget defensive skills in the midfield contribute to possession. Playing offensively may hurt your possession.
