In fact, they are going forward, but more cautiously, which is good. Because Exploit the Middle increases the mentalities of central players, thus making them more attack-minded, so your fullbacks realize they should not be bombing forward as much, because if they did, the team would become very vulnerable defensively (with so many forward-running players at the same time). Just look at the positions of your central players when the shout is on and compare them to when it's off, and you'll see that the fullbacks are actually making the right decision. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johangod Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 How do I stop this from happening ? Both are just normal CD/d, no special PIs - tactic is a 442 with a mid-block, meaning I have an Offside trap, tight marking, extremely urgent pressing and prevent GK with a Much Higher DL and Much Lower LOI What PIs for the CD do I need to pop in for them to not do something this dumb. If the screenshots are not easy to see what happens, it's a counter on me - my CD loses the aerial duel on the wing but I still don't think it's right for my other CD to just CHARGE towards them and leave someone THAT free.

Yeah, I might have the mid block part wrong - presumed the combination of high dl / low loi was a mid block. But I guess that makes sense, also could be my fullbacks on WB/s bombing forwards as this came from a deep throw-in for me - still I've seen that exact thing happen more than once so figured I'd ask.

For example, in FM18 you could set a deeper D-line to draw your entire team further down the pitch. Since the game is split into attacking, defending, and transition, I am not really sure how to replicate this behaviour. Hence, when I feel that I am too advanced, it is not longer immediately obvious to me how to adjust. Is this now encoded into the mentality?

But overall behavior of your players has to do with a lot more than just mentality and/or d-line/LOE settings. Formation, roles, duties (plus other team instructions) will all play an important part.

Not seen a test but it's been stated before that from 18+ a player's development prioritises match experience over training (though both are still important). However this is playing at an appropriate level. Players will still develop on the youth team but the poorer quality of the matches (at youth/reserve level) they are playing will see a slower development than if they play in the first team or go out on loan (which has it's own problems with lack of control).

Training is still important but the quality of the matches they are playing is the most important (assuming they don't get really low ratings). If he's rated at a 2nd division level, he's better being loaned out than staying at the club and playing for the youth/reserves. If you're going to give him occasional game time with your firsts however, then less (but better) game time and better training facilities may be more beneficial. The older they are the more regularly they will need to play I've found. Simply, after age 18 Match Experience > Training. 7 hours ago, pq said: What is the difference between a BBM and a CM(s) e.g.? I mean besides all the prechosen PI's, but what if you chose the exact same on the CM - is there any difference then? Only pre-selected PI is Roam from Position which does a bit by itself. However, IIRC if you select a CM(s) and tell him to roam, his mentality will still be slightly less than the BBM. At least on FM18, I haven't checked for a while.

You can play any player in any position/role/duty if you want. The question is more about should than can. And in this particular case, there is nothing wrong in playing an IF on the side of his stronger foot. In FM18 I liked to use my left-footed AML (who is btw a natural winger) as an IF on attack duty, and it worked very well for me (actually, he played better than as a winger). I also like to use a right-footed player as a winger on support in the AML position (or vice versa), telling him to hold position and cross from deep to far post, while using an IF on attack on the opposite flank, especially in counter-attacking tactics. The AML then behaves basically as an IF even though he's playing a winger role. If you are creative, you can make a lot of interesting (and ostensibly "counter-intuitive") combinations.

When ass man did the training I saw a lot of 10s, now the highest is just above 8. is this an indication that my schedule is worse than my ass man's? Not necessarily. Training Rating is heavily based on development and morale. Development is of course influenced by training, but if you've a squad of 30yr olds you're not going to see much development. Similarly players do not develop in a smooth curve, so the AM may simply have been in charge during a 'boom' period. If morale is lower than it was when the AM was in charge this will also impact TR. If you can rule these out, then yes maybe review your schedules. Pay attention to why you are training too, are you training specifically for short terms gains, i.e. a win in the next match, (say Mourinho) or are you training for a long term philosophy/player development (say Guardiola). Training Rating is much more important in the latter. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Experienced Defender Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 11 hours ago, hxp said: I'm trying to create a tactic for a team that just got promoted and has the worst squad in the competition. The biggest strength is pace and dribbling on the wings and striker. Basically i want to win the ball deep and then transition fast to attack and create as many 1v1 situations for my attackers as possible. 4-2-1-3 2DM i know 4-1-4-1 would probably be better to trigger counter attacks but i don't have the players for LM/RM standard for home and counter for away games structured so my attackers stay upfront ready to recieve a pass and because they can't defend and have low work rate normal def line not too deep so i don't invite too much pressure close down more because i have better tackling and aggression than marking and concentration in my backline wide width for maximum attacking width so i can create 1v1 situations for my wingers normal tempo i would go with high but my players have bad first touch and anticipation more direct passing and also more risky passing PI for players with high passing How does this look so far?

Will it reduce players jadenes or tired ? I've been going with the Physio recommendations. I have a view set up to show the whole team with training intensity and physio recommendation. But for some reason, FM doesn't have functionality to let us mass edit those so I have to click them one at a time when the physio recommendation changes. I check for this every day, which is a micro-management pain, but it is what it is. I wish there was a button to either "follow physio" or the ability to highlight 15 guys and change them all at once like we can do with other things like assigning players to the U23s or something. The physio recommendations seem to take a lot more into account than just the player's condition %, so I don't think being able to set by that is as good at preventing injury. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
