ive got this idea of trying out a 3-1-6 formation in Football Manager. I'm all ears for any of your experiences, suggestions about how i could set/make this work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
It starts as a 4-2-3-1 --> 3-2-5 --> 3-1-6
Tactic:
Team instruction: Attacking/positive mentality; Much shorter w/ slightly lower/higher tempo, focus through the middle, Widest width, work into the box, counter press, roll out to fullback & centreback, High line of engagment and defensive line, max press and step back.
Play instruction: IW(stay wider, hold position), CM(A) (Move into channel), Treq (Stay wider) SV(A) (Get forward, move into channel), WB(Automatic) (Hold position, stay wider), FB(D) (sit narrower, dribble less). Back three have close down less.
Reason why i didnt play with the CAM (AM-S) is that i notice that it would go into the channel where the SV should be at, even try use hold position but would still position himself there.
