Mr Hough Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Here is the Winger tactic, I'm only gonna write a little bit i'll go into more detail tomorrow and i'll also add it to the OP aswell. Use commen sense when it comes to player attributtes or if you can't manage that you'll have to wait till tomorrow till i write it properly. Team talks and training use what you are comfortable with. Pitch size small I gave up on this test after i became champions that was after 40 games and i lost a few fames because i was on holiday and letting the assistant control the team here are some screens. I know i have conceded quite alot but i was struggling with the defence throughout this save and only managed sort dort it out at the end. Here is the link to the tactic. http://www.filefront.com/17207525/MR Hough 4-1-1-2-2 Final (Middlesbrough, May 2010).tac http://www.mediafire.com/?64tckudad4zbs81 I will write a better description tomorrow but i've been on this all day and quite frankly i want a break and a beer. There is room for improvement as in any tactic, If i make any i will update. Enjoy guys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyhugs Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Letting your assistant do the job and going on holiday pretty much ruins your team. I hate when people test out a tactic letting assistant do all the job and go on holiday and be like ok this tactic sucks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcwuk1 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 nice tactic buddy, but(always a butt aint there) i seem to have a lot lower posession. Sometimes as low as 37% not that I'm fussed still winning, but (again) why can that be Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenkobuster Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Got a similar problem on my 3rd match of the season against Sunderland, Darren Bent is isolating himself against Lugano and getting one on one with the keeper, i have dropped it down to 8 see if its any better, i have swapped Lugano over with King too, that should help.

Mr Hough Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 I'm gonna call the tactic the Winger BETA, I have made some updates and i will be looking to get a hopefully better version out in a few days, I won my last game with everton 7-1 against FC Zurich, I also had 31 shots 15 on target hit the woodwork 4 times and had 7 CCC's, Zurich had 3 shots 1 on target 1 CCC lol typical eh. The changes i have made aren't drastic at all really just mainly to the overall teams mentality, I should have thought of it before but it went completly over my head.

rotfleo Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 mmmmmmmh first match with man city vs spurs finished the first half i was 3-1 second half 3-2 .... 3-3... 4-3... 4-4...4-5...5-5...6-5.... the defence is not really good (( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipswichjon Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Going forward this tactic is really strong, an example of the potency comes in the CCC created, with Ipswich at home to Charlton, a relatively strong preseason friendly opponent, match stats: 6-3 win 22 shots 10 on target 8 CCC and some lovely passing moves going on but as has been mentioned the defence is an issue and in all my preseason games I've conceded, and the goals have all come from the same 2 sources: (1) opposition strikers running in behind and outpacing my centre backs (my guys aren't super quick) I think maybe the defensive line is a little too high and you need very quick centre backs. A way around this could be playing with an offside trap. (2) From crosses, usually with a player winning a header against my fullbacks at the far post, does this mean a need big guys at fullback, should it be man instead of zonal marking?

jenkobuster Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Try lowering the overall Mentality setting in the team options to the first notch of attacking or last notch of normal when playing away from home This works, lost 3-0 away to Bolton, my next away match was Chelsea lowered the mentality as above and managed a 1-2 win, Bosingwa was sent off in the 75th miute, but i was already winning then.

Sparta Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 My experience so far is that it far exceeds the 4123 in creating chances, but is far less stable when it comes to defence. Like a few others I have experienced trouble away from home. Seems to me like a formation based more on luck and thus less "stable". You'll create more chances than the opposition but you have to take the chances you get or you loose. Seems also to be pretty dependant on great strikers (good finishing and composure esp.?) Since you will need to score on many of your CCC since your opponent usually gets a few too. I can see that if one were to try to do as good as possible in FM one could have two sets of tactics, one very defensive that was made purely to keep possession and deny chances and then this one for scoring goals. Depending on the match you start with either defensive or offensive tactic, then change as the game progresses. Get a lucky lead with the defensive one? Then maybe keep it on, down by two? Change to the 4-1-1-2-2 and score a few goals, then back to defensive when you take the lead:-) For instance you could use the 4123 and 41122. Change back and forth as the match progresses, all you need is one MC that can play AMR/L and one striker that can play AMR/L, then the formation is interchangeable without subbing:) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
