solounamigo Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) After two amazing years with Hertha, I went to Villarreal and achieved the CL-title in just two seasons I don't know what to say to this tactic... there's no other tactic like that in FM18 Edited March 15, 2018 by solounamigo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler42 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 So I was takinga break from my journey save and decided to manage my favorite team Hull and to not make my own tactic this time and try this one out. 11 players start injured and the medical room says its a crisis. I'm having to use backup players on my opening day and start against Aston Villa. I´d settle for a draw. Well behold, my backup player with L1 stats scored 6 goals this game, something I haven't seen my players do for many years. So I say, good start and a good job breaking the ME.

Nope no changes, I've been really lazy with training as well and left it on Match tactics I'm really aggressive with my team talks, I demand a lot before matches and if by half time the performance isn't great, I'm aggressive and tell them they're rubbish and to step it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 You can try counter or control. Team talks should be like Fergie or there is a team talk guide. It is not a high possession tactic unlike BLUE MATTER Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 I've tested mentality changes and find counter or control gives the best results, although not as good as attacking. For one off games it may be worth trying the lower mentalities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 If not winning there is no reason not to change to a plan B. Try BLUE MATTER GOODBYE or Volante to try and gain an advantage in a one off game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Just eave team selection to next match then repack. Away games are the ones to try other options but if its tight in a home game may be worth changing. It is worthwhile just to have a backup plan to change the match, including the double T Tweak 415.

Flohrinho Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Has this tactic become weaker over the last couple patches? Seems like I really struggle against strong teams playing 4-2-3-1.

Tyler42 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I just have one word for this tactic: Wow. I didn't sign any world class players when I got up to the PRM but my striker Nahki Wells got 33 goals in 33 apps, won player of the year and the Golden boot! Nouha Dicko has also been amazing in the PRM considering his avg. stats. Now this season I just signed Moussa Dembélé (30m) & Michy Batshuayi (12,75M) and I except a lethal front line. My biggest weakness this season was that if one of my starting back 3 was out, then I was leaking a lot of goals in. But 2nd place in the first season in the PRM? All credit goes to this tactic.
