Whats the reason for the change to DCB's? Been trying this new pilgrimage and it seems so much better defensively for what seems like a good change that hasn't been used much so far Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimtom1982 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Season Finished, using 108p with BPD's. Did adjust the mentality from game to game, and had to change it to a 433at half time in Champions League final due to Inter's formation. Much fun had including beating City 10-0!!!! Thanks knap!

knap Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Always like it when someone does better than me with my own tactic!

Just took one of the Centre Backs into centre midfield, brought Matic in there as a DLP on Defend, seemed to boost possession also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knap Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Was the AMC causing problems nullified with DLP?. Generally in a back 3 for both this year and last the middle cd has higher closing down or outside on cover to try to pick up AMC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimtom1982 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) DLP seemed to sure things up. Went up from 40% to 55% on possession and most importantly from 2-1 down to winning 3-2. They had two shots in second half compared to 14 in first, so overall I think it helped negate the AMC. Really enjoyable season for the first time in a long time thou, still had to think about things like mentality, rotation etc. Havent got time for all the in depth stuff now I'm a "grown up". Nice to have a bit of fantasy time on FM instead of finding it a grind. Edited September 21, 2018 by Jimtom1982 Tidyness Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicsousa75 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 (edited) Good aftetnoon, i would like to ask you the best way to defend a game, with another tactic? Or changing the mentality of attack to another? Thank you. Edited September 22, 2018 by Vicsousa75 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimtom1982 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I changed mentality mostly, found Standard Mentality to be quite useful when holding a lead. Formation changes only if I noticed a specific problem that I thought I could stop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 This has been, by far the best tactic, doesn't matter what team, from Sunderland, Hamilton, Wycombe, Thame utd, Risborough rangers, Torquay.
