Now starting as Strasbourg in France.. could anybody point me in the right direction for tactics that would work? @knap Thanks Checks his Google Doc in the first post. He lists all the tactics down the left side and then shows the TOP, Sub Top, etc across the top. Top is the top four club (Liverpool, City, etc), the Sub Top is teams 4-7 and so forth. See where you are projected to finish in France and apply accordingly. I had some success using 442 tactics but going Cautious with the Trap turned off in getting out of the Championship. Also, RDF has done some tweaks (do a search in the Google list for RDF and it will highlight his tactics with tweaks) and using a Home and an Away option.

Earnie is God! Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) After trying all sorts of knap tactics, some with weird formations, 3 up front, 2 at the back and all that nonsense, some of which worked very well but not particularly consistent, I decided to go back to basics. There's a reason this has had about 100 downloads a day. Apart from a crazy 5-4 defeat at Norwich, this has been excellent. Last 11 games of the season using it, winning 10 (9 plus 1 in extra time) and 1 defeat. 7 clean sheets too, very pleasing. 4-4-2 is King! If in doubt, always look to KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid!)

knap Posted April 12, 2020 Author Share Posted April 12, 2020 @Ragin Cajun GS is running so I can post the order per GS on the right. I would say sub top can stretch to Wolves. Per GS Sheffield Utd are the worst team in PL, but both Rober and RDF have won PL As such it is difficult to pigeon hole tactics In general to have a sub top squad you may need the 3rd season before becoming sub top, but results are a progression up the table. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This years fm engine is not as good and can be quite frustrating . Winning 5 games in a row then lose the next 8 ..........lol 😂 i disagree...winning with LFC and City SHOULD be the norm but it isn't. We've seen plenty of people not get as good results with those teams with just any tactic. if you can get 100+ pts with City or LFC, without making the signings, then i'd say that isn't the norm i would agree on some degree, people do build a super team, then post results, but most tactic requires you to have the correct players, LFC, UTD, City and more, have players and a squad that can fit most tactics...example, testing a tactic with Sheff Utd would be difficult if your tactics has wingers, as they have 1 player who can perform as a winger, so you won't get the full performance. Even Spurs, its difficult to test a tactic with half the squad missing with injuries. nobody expects to get the same results with Bournemouth than someone did with LFC, but it gives a person an idea of what players to get to make the tactic successful. and another thing, i've tested tactics with lower teams before, i won the league with Sheff Utd, but then it didn't work as well with other teams, mainly because it was tweaked to suit my Sheff Utd team at that time. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 @markv1 Go with one which suits your squad. Tactics may work the other way round, in that top players may not need instructions bot poor players need more controlling instructions. Also the idea of playing a direct passing game may also be false, so I would bot use ROUTE 66 tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonLeNoble Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 (edited) Black Echo 4411 P108 ECC is a beast High possession, total control of the games, 2 goals conceded in Eredivisie.
