FuSS Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hi everyone, I've just started my BETA game, and it appears that WIDTH WIDTH WIDTH is the mantra for FM21 so far. There tends to be big tactical changes between the BETA and the full release and I doubt I'll even finish my first season before the full game is out, but will aim to get something out quickly there after.

FuSS Posted December 8, 2020 Author Share Posted December 8, 2020 Getting there. I suspect the reason that there aren't as many tactics out as usual is that others are experiencing similar problems to me. Mainly; the tactical approach that work in the beta (press hard and play wide) doesn't work in the full release. The thing that has taken me a while is that I've desperately been trying to tweak my great beta tactic to make it work again, but it just won't. Where my success has come is in finally admitting to myself I can't fix it and starting over! Now that I've started over it's been really interesting. Hard pressing doesn't seem to be the way forward, for the first time in years, a more balanced approach seems to be needed (well done SI!). There's also a few major bugs in this match engine in my opinion: Route 1 football is way to effective - a single physical striker can walk straight between two CBs without them really reacting. If you just want to win, this engine is begging for a longball exploiting tactic (I won't be doing that). Goal keeper errors are comical - I've scored so many goals from the rebound of opposition keepers taking a drop kick right into my nearby players face. Mad spaces being left at throw-ins - I've had opposition players walk away from their marker once the ball has been thrown, walk directly into a 30-40yard gap in my box, and just wait for the ball, it's like they don't register at all. The last two are just bugs and we'll live with them until they get patched. The first is a major problem to defend against unless you use 3 CBs (I won't be doing that). 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuSS Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) This is my current line of thinking for FM21, although not finished yet. Based closely on FuSSfilment (FM20). There's a change in formation (shocking from me, I know!) and there's much less pressing (which seems to be the key in FM21!). unFuSShionable BETA v1.1 (low cross + FB cross + mixed passing IFs).fmf Edited December 10, 2020 by FuSS 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short answer: No. Long Answer: Treat this tactic pretty much the same as my FM20 tactics. If there's an exceptional player causing problems, you can use OIs to stop the problems occurring. Advice: OIs are more useful the further down the league you go - i.e. the smaller the team, more it pays to spoon feed the players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty normal for an IF anyway. You want them to be able to cut inside. To be fair, if it's the other way around then they will just cross more instead of shoot/through balls.

In FM21 I've found that putting anyone in the DM spot (using any positional settings!) creates too much space for the opposition to play between your defensive line and your midfield. It's counter intuitive but I actually concede more as soon as I move anyone to that DM position. I can probably get a 4-3-3 with a flat 3 in midfield to work fairly easily, but I've been enjoying the amount of movement the AMC creates? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(changing the MC def to DLP def? or the AMC to Advanced playmaker? or anohter option?) Much appreciated. I generally feel that using a playmaker makes a tactic very one dimensional - it asks the rest of your team to pass to him more often so that he can act as a central point. This works well if you playmaker is head and shoulders above the rest of your team, but otherwise all you're really doing is stunting everyone else's creativity. Also if a decent opposition player man-marks your playmaker, then it's game over. If you've got a great advanced playmaker type of player - then my first choice would be to use him in the AMC spot, as it is, don't change it to a playmaker. He'll do brilliantly there, he'll still pick amazing passes and assist a lot. If you really must have a playmaker position in your side then my gut feeling would be to replace the box-to-box midfielder, potentially with a deep-laying play maker in support mode so that he still covered some ground, I don't know if it'll work though! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

f.zaarour Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 @FuSS Gave it a try and started really well. Making one self is kind of complicated, well for me though. If i might ask, how do you come up with to use those kind of PI's for example? And it seems that using a high press tactic works the best (as we also can see from those many knap tactics) right? I have to say this one is a nice tactic, saw some really sweet plays also. I did just one change, which is passing shorter, to have some combination play which i like to see in game. Id like to know, do u change something when playing against stronger teams, like in the CL league against the best teams, in away games. If yes, what do u change, where to think about? I mean, lowering mentality does not make it more solid right, or when u lower the lines (DoF, LoE) does it make this tactic less effective because of the high press? Thanks in advance.

DavyDepuydt1 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) The beta tactic in the screenshot earlier in this thread does still work, and very well, especially with top teams. But I liked to have it a bit more defensively sound, certainly with the smaller underdog teams, you would overperform, but the games that you lose, you would often lose them by a large margin (4-0,1-5, ...) So I've made this tweak that really does work well for me (I only did a small sample test, so I'm not sure it will work as good for everyone) In short I dropped LOE & Defensive line one notch and removed a few team instructions - wide in possesion, force opposition wide - to make it even more simpler than it already was.

Long story short it's about having a decent understanding of football in real life , thinking through what you want to happen in the game, and then trying to logic out how to make that happen. The biggest pit fall is people not thinking things through. A common example is people watching Liverpools front 3 (Mane/Firmino/Salah) and going for attacking IF's that sit narrow. Seems like a good idea, but ask yourself, is that what they actually do? No! Salah and Mane stay very wide when the team is in possession and when they enter the final third then THEN cut-in, they don't sit narrow. So to replicate that kind of behaviour I tell them to stay wide. They also both work extremely hard defensively and harassing opponents, to replicate that behaviour I set them to support, close down more, and mark tight. Once you find an example you like in the real world, really think about it, and you can make it. 12 hours ago, andre62 said: the tactic still work on the new match engine??

DavyDepuydt1 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) The tweak has been tested as 3rd best 4-2-3-1 tactic for the current ME, not far of the best (point-wise) on fm-arena, it even beats knap's ParisienWalkway (most popular) tactic But what's also worth mentioning, it has a lot less goals against than the other top 4-2-3-1 tactics, while it also still has the best Goal Difference, which means the good defense doesn't impact the offense That is an important thing, because those goals against mostly come in away games or difficult games against better/good teams. That's why some other high scoring, league winning tactics still fail to win champions league, because away at the big teams they lose by to large margin and lose the tie on aggregate. So the goals against factor is also a nice indicator if the tactic can bring you to cup success (like champions league, FA cup, ...) as well... (offcourse the other indicators should be decent as well, if you don't score it's also bad, but it's an underrated and important factor and reason why people can't explain they win the domestic league but no champions league) DavyTweakFuss_Vnext2.fmf Edited December 29, 2020 by DavyDepuydt1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyDepuydt1 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) To add some extra to the analysis of my DavyTweakFuss_VNext2 tactic for FM21 I've did some 'regression' testing with this tactic on FM19 & FM20 and it was succesfull on those as well (both in competition, best in GF & GA, and in championsleague) This makes me confident that this is no exploit tactic, as it worked on previous versions, and means that more than likely it will work on next patches of FM21 as well, which is important to me that you don't have to look for another tactic and change your whole way of playing each time SI comes with a new patch. Something else to notice from the fm-arena testing that I haven't mentioned before, if you look it has the least Goals from corners of all tested tactics, so it doesn't use any corner-exploit, so goals are from how the tactic plays out, and if you would subtract the goals from corners from the total goals scored the tactic comes out as one of the best scoring-wise here a screenshot (FM19) attached from my tweak that proofs it also worked perfectly on FM19 (and so is probably a very future-patch-proof tactic) 18/18 with only 1 goal against in this mad CL group with PSG & Dortmund Download (it's the same tac as attached in both posts above, it's just added for the ease of people who want to download it) DavyTweakFuss_Vnext2.fmf Edited December 29, 2020 by DavyDepuydt1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
