sirlimps Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 This tactic does great for me at the beggining of the season with my wolves team and gets me straight up into 1st place and i must say that the attacking is brilliant......then from out of nowhere i cant seem to buy a win......people may say that this is the re-ranking but i've looked and the teams that im playing arent playing more defensive its just that my players seem to forget where the goal is....i still have the majority of chances in game.....my main exampole is Freddy Eastwood....scored 17 in 17(2), now he cant shoot on target...every shot is blazed over or the keeper saves it...is anyone else having this problem? and can anyone help?

sirlimps Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 i think i need to point out that i seem to have overcome my problems by rotating the team and playing the fringe players who are 100% fit...seems to have given those other players more time and space to do what they need to its all about squad rotation apparently Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReGLoVEManUtd Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 well, after 4 games with this tactics... WHOOOA man... im with Scousepool (One hell of a united fan heh), before i used ur tactics my results were fairly rubbish... afterwards - a great 5-4 win over my love MUFC, and 3 straight wins... i lost 2 ARSEnal in the Carling cup and drawn with boro, but basicly it works like a charm :} only 1 slight prob... IM CONCEDING LOADS OF GOALS! playing with carra and boulahrouz in the middle, i also got Kompany and Hyypia. any suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

20Reedy07 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Well i posted earlier as to say i've just tried this tactic.. Now about 15 games later i can honestly say this tactic is simply awsome. As my attacking players.. ( Forte, C.Taylor, Pericard & Shelton ) have such raw pace between them i score so many goals and dont concede all that often neither. Only tweaks i've made are.. keep the full backs abit more defensive and less running with the ball & getting my best CB to man mark who i think is there best striker tight.

Guest Nathz29 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 WOn the EPL with Man city using this one bought Aaritola and ninis in the summer as couldn't get any of my targets then huntelaat joined in Jan finished six points clear of Arsenal!! Bianchi is a genius using this 7.4 rating and 20+ goals! Season two not as impressive could be down to my signings bringing youth in too soon I think and trying to find a good replacement for Dunne who is not too young or too expensive! still second and beat Sevilla 3-1 away in the Champions league Good Tactic!!!

Got_Talent? Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 10 game winning streak in prem i got, 10 points clear at top and unbeaten in ALL competitions. I'm Man U, i already played something similar to this (didn't have a striker running back) i've bought no first team players just aartilo for backup to tevez and rooney, piatti for future. Oh yeah, i thrashed Liverpool 5-0 and they had 4 shots. I put creativity on high, i feel it's a waste with the ability Man U have and not to be creative. I score high and have conceded 5 in prem. Nottm forest season - using this tactic, 25 games into championship i'm 6 pts from play offs. Best tactic ever! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest adam_zulu Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Finished 2nd in the league with Birmingham City, only 1 point behind Man Utd. Didn't do great in the domestic cups but my league performance blew all expectations out of the water. Only made a few key signings. I got Felipe in defense and the goal keeper along with Ignashevich, Aaritalo and Gourcuff on loan. Aaritalo seems to play really well as the striker who drops off. Doesn't seem to be a one season wonder either as I'm doing equally as well the second season in. Obviously I've had a bit more money to spend to solidify certain areas but so far amazing tactic which I only had to tweak slightly (DM not running forward, not having wingers always running all the way up, just mid way).

Fulham_Mic Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I'm playing as Fulham and have had mixed results. My team are still at the 'Not yet developed a good level of understanding' stage even though I'm now in November, and my strikers refuse to get involved. The team plays well, and gets the ball up into the final third quite often but my strikers refuse to have a shot. I've even tried putting 'Long Shots' to often but it doesn't seem to have made a difference. Any ideas/experience of what I can do to bring my strikers into the game more ?? -Mic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest [Steve]_JUVE#10 Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 i would like to give a big big big thanks to the creator of this tactic. With Juve i was struggling to stay in the top 4 and was in 5th in January. Went on about a 13 game un beaten run and ended up 3rd. Thank you very much. P.S. Is there any where on here i could find tips on how to operate with a 3 man defence??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMeL_UK Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I've developed some revisions to this tactic basically I got wolves promoted using them, but found the premiership really tough going. I adjusted the defensive line to be a little deeper depending on who I was playing and adjusted the left and right wingers to play a little bit more defensive. It's taken me from bottom of the premiership with 3 games gone to now 10th in the division. I'll post the revisions when I get back, it certainly makes the tactic alot less hit and miss, with 3 revisions you have a fiora2 standard tactic which is open attacking, the fiora2SD which is slight defensive, and the fiora2sdwb slightly defensive with more defensive wing backs. They also have varying degrees of width. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xs Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I'm playing with Sparta (Dutch team). So it might be nice to know how it works outside of the premier league So all in all, not bad! Actually, it's pretty darn good if you know Sparta should fight against relegation. It's still not a Win after Win tactic, but i do take my chances and it looks pretty solid. Also 3rd in league with 39 goals made. But also 28 goals against. I'm 8th now, but just 3 points behind nr 4. 5 points with nr 3. So there's sight on European football with Sparta! Lol! I tweak some small things, like the DMC on rare FR and mixed RWB. Sometimes i give my side backs some more attacking mentality and it seems to work. More passes end up in possesion after in pass instead of a loss. Also play around with the width. Especially when you're behind. When i'm behind i change width, untick counter attck and sometimes bring in my Target man and tick it on with team instructions to keep some possesion up front and create more ball possession. If you're playing with a much weaker team like me, be very gentle with time wasting, as to high def. will get you into trouble. I sometimes change it to normal. But a little less does give more edge to the counter attacks and might even extend your lead. I also found out that when i'm with 10 men after a red card i use one striker in the center (without BArrow) and The rest stays the same. it even plays better. Happened 3 times now and won / draw against better team. So i'm going to try out without the AMC from midfield, but use a real AMC behind the striker. To see how that works. I'll let you guys know. So a really nice solid tactic! Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
