Mr Hough Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Don't want to sound horrible but Mr Hough peaked with his 4-1-2-3 tactic. Because that was so effective everyone thinks he is a tactics god, which has been proved wrong with the the tactics he has released since (and before for that matter). Thanks for that.

Sparta Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Thanks for the interesting reads and inputs on FM tactics Hough, go enjoy life and the game:-) Any chance to convince you to take a look at the 4123 with very rigid?

Sparta Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I find it strange that you're having difficulty against a wide diamond formation with a 4-1-2-3, because if anything, you should actually have the advantage in this case. You are packing the midfield and playing through the middle, where the opposition has only two players (AMC and DMC), plus there's a gap between them in which your two MCs usually sit. Here's just one example of me playing against a wide diamond: I also used some OIs, like tight marking the AMC and both STs, plus showing all players onto their weaker foot. Usually I don't use OIs at all, but when I play big teams, I tend to use at least some. The main thing is not to go overboard with the "close down" OI. That's the one that makes your team loose shape and open up gaps for opposing players. In my own game, I never use this particular OI, but I do use the other ones, because they don't affect your team's positioning so drastically. That is strange indeed, maybe it is more squad related? My players simply don't fit that well vs the Diamond? I tried man-marking the AMC with my DM and it helped alittle but still loose consistantly vs same skill-level teams. Will try your tight marking trick and see if it helps but cannot see any way I'd dominate Barca like that:-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

polistus Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 First of all I would like to say big thanks to you, Dave! Your commitment, enthusiasm and talent for making tactics has been unprecedented! I have tried to make some tactics myself and I know how difficult it can be. Thanks for being with us and sharing what you have made - the best tactics in FM10. Looking back to all the released tactics, if you could just pick one tactic, which one would it be? Yes, they are all good but which one is the most legendary one, your true legacy? Everyone else, please name your favourite tactic as well! I have had most success with the Mr Hough 4-1-2-3 Unbeaten Final Version, maybe also due to the fact that I have been using it a lot. I remember that the Classic Tactic worked well for me as well but would it be fair to say that it is still inferior to the Unbeaten tactic? I am a lover of slider tactics and have not used the Mr Hough and JP Woody Final Version that much. But I still liked the Unbeaten Final more. So, third place maybe. AVD MOD – Mr. Hough’s Unbeaten Final Version was a disappointment, it never worked for me. Sorry. It leaked way too many goals and probably requires better defensive players. But your final word, the ONE AND ONLY TACTIC is ............................ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one that has given me the most success and is easily the Classic Everton tactic that i won the quadruple with Simply astonishing acheivment then it would be the unbeaten then the complete dominace 10.2.

Like one game I was offside 20 times and another game offside 16 times.What am I doing wrong? There could be many reasons for this. One is that your players have low anticipation stats. If it's the strikers, then they're making their forward runs too early. If it's the midfielders, then they're possibly making through passes to the strikers too late. Or it could be a combination of both. Plus the opposing team is probably using the offside trap. Are you still getting good results though? It will happen in some matches more than others.

The difference is that one tactic is made in a classic way and the other is made using the tactics wizard/creator.
