Mr U Rosler Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Greetings I’ve had a small number of people ask for a tactic this year so here it is. I’ve been using this flat 433 across all the version of the match engine this year and it has worked consistently well at all times. Arguably its performing at its best on the latest version of the Match Engine. Essentially we have a ‘double chevron’ set up with 2 central pivots feeding wide runners. During regular build up the idea is to create overloads in the channels creating multiple situations where a wide running (Mezzala or Advanced Forward) can play a simple pass across the six yard box or penalty area for an attacker to get on the end of. Obviously this set up is very helpful for counter attacking situations where the ball can find its way to the Deep Lying Forward who can feed the more advanced Strikers. Defensively there would usually be concerns about 3 striker formations, however the Deep Lying Playmaker ‘anchors’ the midfield and the Deep Lying Forward operates defensively when out of possession. We also have fairly conservative Full Backs on Support Duty. So it functions pretty effectively defensively all things considered. This is a high tempo, semi direct system with players able to take shooting opportunities when presented with them. (we don’t employ work ball into box) Results Obligatory convincing title win with Liverpool Satisfactory return for Norwich And back to back promotions non league with an academy team I’ve been building for a few seasons.

Mr U Rosler Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) Player Archetypes Advanced Forwards – Runner, Finishers Agile, Technical, Dribblers are preferred here with plenty of pace. Counter Attacking at pace travelling quickly with or without the ball. These attributes also help them find space around the penalty area during slower build up play. Non league a physical type good in the air is a good alternative. Look for, Acceleration, Dribbling, Technique, Off the ball Deep Lying Forward – Creator, Disrupter Here we are looking for someone both technical ability and with a strong work ethic. He is our first line of defense with the opportunity to win the ball high up the pitch from where he has the skills to instigate a strong counter attack. A high pivot pulling the strings from central areas when attacking. Look for, Vision, Passing, Work Rate, Decisions Mezzala – Runner, Dribbler Link players from midfield attacking the channel in tandem with the Advanced Forwards creating situations where one or both of them can be in space in dangerous areas. Moving quickly with the ball transitioning defense into attack. They are also required to put in a defensive shift. Longshot monsters. Look for, Dribbling, Agility, Work Rate, Longshots Deep Lying Playmaker – Interceptor, Distributer Fairly disciplined role in front of the back for, we play out from the back and much of this will go through him. Pick passes and spreading play accordingly. Out of possession he will snuff out attacks intercepting passes and building from there. Look for, Anticipation, Decisions, Passing, Vision Full Backs – Runner, Tacklers Taking on a lot of defensive responsibilities we need good athletes who can run the flanks all day. They do not over commit offensively and will often opt for simple passes into the channels rather than a cross. We can focus on defensive qualities without much detriment to the overall system. Look for, Stamina, Work Rate, Tackling, Marking Centre Backs – Header, Tacklers Again we can firmly concentrate of defensive attributes here, offensively all they really need is to be able to pass it 10 feet the our playmaker. Pace is always welcome here. Look for, Jumping Reach, Tackling, Marking, Acceleration Goal Keeper Again we can keep it simple. Look for, Aerial Ability, Reflexes, One on One’s, Command of area Edited March 2, 2022 by Mr U Rosler 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr U Rosler Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) Training I have successfully continued to employ my simple training philosophy with a tough pre-season followed by a focus on match readiness in the main season. Employ normal training intensity at all times. We use 3 schedules. Pre-season > Heavy physical training combined with team bonding to set us up for a long hard season. Normally 4 or 5 weeks of this at the start of each season Match Week > Any week with 2 or more matches is classified as a ‘match week’. Here we are not really interested in ‘coaching’ or player development. It’s much more about match preparation and conditioning with only light training days. Development Week > Any week with 1 or less matches. Here we can commit time to working on improving our players with a range of session working on improving player skills and development tailing off in readiness for the weekend match Using these schedules on my Academy Teams I regularly see CA increases of 30+ points for professional personalities, 10-20 points for balanced personalities over 1 season.

Hi, Saka left sided Mezzala (retrain). Smith Rowe retrain to the Deep Lying Forward Role or right sided Mezzala depending on your squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skywalk3r83 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Does it still work after the latest update? This is a good one to use with the 92/93 database from @TheMadScientistFM 😄 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollender Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Taking Salford to Premier League (won every div.) (using other tactics) Started with a 4-3-1-2 and got hammered by Man C. (expected) then played so and so. changed to Mr. U's 4-3-3 and suddenly started winning......some by 1 goal and some by several. Have a lot of draws and some lost by 1 goal but at new year, I'm 6th place, so really satisfied. Having loads of chances and hitting posts and stupid-keeper. 2 Questions Mr. U. : 1 player down - who to take out? Should I change Attacking to ?, if wanting to defend small lead or? (have tried some times but ended up being more hammered and changing back to attacking) Edited June 29, 2022 by Hollender Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscoDave Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Gonna try your tactic and training with my Millwall save at the start of a fresh season. Will post back after the season has finished. It may take a while as I never leave any game to my ass. manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

manidaro7 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Hi @Mr U Rosler i was looking for a tactic to use in my save and I decided to download this creation of yours, I must admit that my team has changed pace. Nice game and centered victories even if I don't have the players with the right characteristics for this grid. However, I have some questions: 1) If I receive a red card, how should I settle? 2) how should rest be set in training? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampalaea4 Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 This is not realistic at all... I dont care if it has good results because of bad match engine but attacking mentality with 4 attack roles (super overkill..) and plug n play... This could probably be a "last 10 minutes" tactic to turn the game but thats it.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
