dzek Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I'm interested to create a tactic which maximised long balls over the top(behind dlines) and/or play down the flanks. I don't have anything started yet. @Johnny Ace here we go! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Ace Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 You have to have a starting point @dzek What shape do you want etc? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try 433 Wide with 3 AFs, 2 wingers and 1 holding defensive midfielder. Something like this. Edited August 18, 2023 by dzek Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But try it out for sure, it's part of the FM fun Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you find WBs more effective than IWB on this ME? Edited August 18, 2023 by dzek Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try a 4-3-3 with DLP at DM or something, that's a starting point, see how that plays and so forth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there no way to stop them? If they manage to make those long balls, then it's 50/50 to concede a goal. So the important thing here is to somehow not give them the space. I've tried with maximised trigger press, with mark tighter and mid block but nothing. Im playing with 424 formation.

Use an extra midfielder in DMC/MC/AMC Never used a 4-2-4 and never had a problem with this Every shape has a weakness, every shape will concede goals and you've found the 4-2-4's I know you're trying to build some P&P meta tactic here, the T&T board isn't about that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dzek Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 @Johnny Ace I have some questions about overlaps and underlaps. Overlaps: - Except Wingers who will hold the ball and search for a full back who overlap to pass, is there any other position which will pass to that overlap? Underlaps: - If I enable underlaps on both sides, then the Wingers will hold the ball and look to pass to a teammate who make a run inwards. Is this also the case with Full-Backs? So they're looking for a teammate running inwards? - Which roles are better suited for this instruction? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he pass the ball faster forward or will he pass the ball to a teammate at a longer distance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
