CAE82 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 A distributed testing system would be interesting. Set up a save to download, people assigned a tactic/team, download save, run a few holiday seasons. Add results to a spreadsheet. Of course, some kind of screening to ensure unscrupulous users post fake results! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finknottle Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) For knap or anyone who might be able to assist. I found today that when I go to knap's Tactics Links & Tactics Rankings that I can no longer get access to the pages where the tactics download links are. Am I doing something wrong or has something changed? Muchly thankings. Also I've just landed the job at Wolves After being sacked at Everton, Aston Villa and Newcastle United. Suggestions for appropriate tactics for these teams please, I'm assuming that they are all sub top teams. Edited April 22, 2020 by oescus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza’s Pint Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) Tested all of the tactics that have had the most recommendations over the last few weeks. Done a variety of different tests, from playing the same game over and over with each tactic, to playing a full season. All tests with Derby County who have a fairly flexible squad when it comes to fitting a formation, and I watched every game on extended highlights. Two tactics stood out no matter how I tested. Those two were the 4321 Fire and Water as has been said, and the other is the Venom 109 one. I found that the venom which is a 4-4-2 was overall better in terms of goals scored and chances created, Fire and Water was more consistent, but was not as potent offensively because of the 1 striker, whereas the 4-4-2 had a lot more interplay between the two up front which unlocked teams more often. For example in one of the tests I played around 15 games into the season, and I think chances created at the point I tested to was 92-70 in favour of Venom, with a similar ratio when it came to goals scores, although that was closer. In that particular test there was only 2 points difference in favour of Venom, but Fire and Water only had 1 defeat, where Venom had 3, but less draws. Venom did have a 9-0 win away at Middlesbrough which padded those stats, but also a 5-1 loss to Brentford. It felt more fun to watch, but the fire and water felt more reliable in as you knew what you were going to get. I also tested this floated crosses theory, while watching the match highlights. The clear difference is that floated crosses are mostly played into the strikers head, where low ones are mostly to the feet. That is the only difference. If your striker is rubbish in the air, I would avoid floated crosses, otherwise they are more effective if you have a more physical striker, as headers in this ME seem to hit the target more often than shots do. Just thought I would share my findings. Oh and the one game test which I played 7 times with each tactic was Leeds away. Venom had 4 wins 1 draw 2 losses Where Fire and Water had only 2 wins but 5 draws and 0 defeats. Edited April 22, 2020 by Gazza’s Pint 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah! rarely i even got 0 ppl at the back when doing a corner kick, but this is very rarely and usually when i get a red card or something! the best is to go to the corner routine , see who is taking it and set the correct position in the corner takers!

Earnie is God! Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 14 minutes ago, RDF Tactics said: that'll be interesting...will try that tomorrow! I've been using it for about 6 months in the non league with my part time side. We are down in the 9th tier though so players are pretty crap. The additional focus areas have mainly seen improvements although quite a few of the others have dipped a bit. But we have average coaches and just 1/2 a star in facilities so wasn't expecting much. General training is only twice a week, less if we play twice in the week. This guy is my star player, far too good for this level, and he's been at the club for just over 5 months. He's dipped in a few areas but improved in others. Obviously the fact he's playing games has helped, even at this level, but he needs better physicals to compete with some of the thugs down here😁 I think that a whole point rise in Jumping and close to that in agility/balance now I've switched the focus there shows that this kind of training can work even for part time clubs. It's more difficult down here, being part time with crappy facilities but you can still get training results, just need to be a bit more careful that other attributes aren't neglected. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
