[Peps 2020/2021 Tactics]

Hey, mate. Would you mind sharing the above 2 tactics? I love the fact that everyone's ratings are good apart from Haaland. Would you recommend him as a false 9?

Currently having my own stab at a Benfica project in FM20. Some of the stars of the FM18 crop are still present and developing well after season one, including...

Dantas

Florentino Luis

Ruben Dias

Currently turning down mega money bids for all 3 (Chelsea recently went over the 160m barrier for Dias).

As you can see, I'm also trying to have a bit of fun here with the free signing of Edison Cavani on a one year deal (great tutor!) amongst others such as Gabriel Barbosa and Moussa Dembele after making a profit of £100m so far in the season 2 transfer window. No point doing youth development for a position where I have no youth to develop right now.

The tactic is a joy to watch in the FM20 ME. Dantas just dominates every game he is in. Defensively, we only conceded 6 goals from open play all season.

Not the most min-max performance you'll see as Benfica, I even lost the Portuguese cup final to Porto, but I gave a lot of game time to youth players coming through such as Mile Svilar and Pedro Alvaro. The only team I couldn't beat domestically were Braga, with Benfica old boy Horta just dancing around my defence.

Some notable youth who will be in the first team squad getting game time this season.

Almada - Been very good for a few editions of FM at this stage.

Nascimento - Will deputize for Dantas as a regista. Has all the right attributes to dominate games.

Camara - Will rotate with Almada for CAM, this role in my system is very much "Oscar at Chelsea". Run around a bit, be a pivot and chip in with a goal/assist every now and again.

Filipe Cruz - A flying right back with all the right PPMs already.

Rafael Brito - Unsure if I want him to develop as a Half Back or Center Half, leaning towards the latter.

 

Hi, mate. Just wanted to check if the PI are in default? I've tried the following tactic just using TI and slight PI changes to the wingers and AM and the football played is out of this world. I do seem to concede a lot though.
