knap Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 MR R in feedback thread The point is, teams under the cosh, camping in there own half passing sideways and backwards is the antithesis of how they would normally behave. Normally they would concede territory and possession in the hope they can counter an opponent who has over committed, resulting in very low possession and completed passes stats but giving them a chance to score and get a result. Retaining possession deep in your own half is a characteristic of certain elite teams and is beyond most normal teams, and then its not aimless or prolonged, but based on beating the press and then moving up the pitch. Very odd behavior. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

byang08 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 11 hours ago, knap said: @byang08 There is no ral reason why you would need to change the set up because of players, unless they do not play well. The tactic is also set up so the BBM has more room to go forward with the winger on that side. I am probably more gun ho and P&P Player. I tend to set up control and SUS tactics just with mentality changes and a few tweaks. However, the guide provides a much better overview of how to tweak and use tactics to your advantage, and if you read a few posts starting on cautious works as a plan. Also worth having a Plan B or even Plan C tactics rather than rely on just one. The whole package gives you an armory against the AI. Thanks for the explanation. Another question, for your wulf4411 tactic and some others with an AMC, why does the AMC role not have any individual instructions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sverige91 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Which tactic is best suited in AWAY games? Using Argus343 (with Man-marking) but the striker "Haller" doesnt score in AWAY games. Chances are there but he misses. Which PPM do you think would work in this Patch, "Shoot with Power" or "Place shots"? Do wingbacks need crossing? They DONT seem to cross alot, but when they do its blocked Can you be more specific which kind of players you need in attack? Is it important to have "Left foot on right and vice versa"I have got Filipe Andersson and Bowen, both have got cuts inside in PPM. Sometimes they perform, like hit and miss not much consistency from Top 3 I have tried the" mentalitet thing", if you start with positive or balanced, Do i need to remove instructions? Do you think that every Assistant manager have same traning schedule? Do their "Defensiv, Attacking" matter when they plan schedule? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 @DjelsWingers would usually be left on left inverted right on left but with cut in ppms I would normally use the cut in in preference. Because of the various combinations it is best to test with the players at your disposal. You can during a match try the various options and this applies also to strikers, and sometimes the MCs. When you get injuries, especially in LL, it is good to be flexible rather than have rigid rules. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking for a tactic for a while which allows you to play Mane, Firmino and Salah consistently and have them all score a lot of goals. Seems very close to Liverpool in real life. Well done. It just seems to concede more and draw a few too many games compared to your other tactics which is a shame.

No, league form is not that great, we're struggling against weaker teams and Dynamo and Shakhtar are in a league of their own. Shakhtar in particular are unplayable, they've signed Piatek from Milan for £30+ million and couple of others for similarly ridiculous amounts. I can only dream. Fortunately we're over performing in Europe though, so it's not all doom and gloom. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
