Formation looks nice (Cause this one actually has IWs for a change despite being another 442) but the results are a bit iffy. WOuld be nice if someone could test this (And maybe include player stats as well)
So I've been doing some testing by using some different teams in pre-seasons and I've found that this tactic is at its best with a left footer on the left and a rightie on the right OR one inverted footer on a wing with the other wing being someone with the same foot as the corresponding wing...
Used this for pre-season and have to say this is really nice. Lone striker actually scoring and I can still play 3 midfielders and just 2 wingers, even though I wish they weren't the traditional ones.
Bit iffy on a CAM though, since the CAM position hasn't been good for like two editions, but...
Perhaps a write out of the routines? How do they work, who gets the goals, etc.
Now I see a bunch of links and unless I download them, I have no idea what to expect.
Mo Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Frenkie de Jong, Mathijs de Ligt, Memphis Depay, Steven Bergwijn, Milan Skriniar, Jadon Sancho, anyone? Also Xavi Simons if he's in.
Thanks.
Not that much impactful gameplay-wise, but I think it would ve a nice touch if players could develop a preferred number or have their current one changed.
So let's say you have this talented striker. Not quite there yet but has potential. So you give him the chance, he develops, he shoots you...
Yeah, the fact thay my RB and LB are on support duty instead of attack is the only reason I even considered placing Keita there. The Inside Forwards are also on support so they track back and one Mezzala against equal or better teams. (And even then, Keita has some decent defensive stats.)...
I play a 4-3-3 with a DM and 2 Inside Forwards.
My right CM is Milinkovic Savic. Against weaker teams, he and the other CM both play as Mezzalas with an attack duty while against weaker or equal teams, he plays with a support duty to help out the defensive midfielder.
Back 4 consists of...
As the title says, it's a hard task to pick between the two. Role will be deep-lying playmaker (Def)
Ruben Neves has already accepted a contract offer after an offer of 47,5 million euros.
Verratti is available for a little bit over 100 million. I can probably get the price down a bit due to...
Been looking at the possibility of bringing Coutinho back in. Probably going to cost a massive fee, but if I can afford it, I'd be more than happy too.
However, I do face a few issues. If I'd buy him back, he'd slot in on the left centre mid spot (mezzala). However, that would mean that Keita...
Has anyone had luck with a different role for the striker? Only strikers I managed to get to score are Werner and Ronaldo. FIrmino for example just squanders the few chances he gets.
Depends on the type of winger, really. Gareth Bale is amazing on the left in my Madrid save, but I'm also having succes with Asensio on the right. Do feel that the instruction play narrow might be better for the inverted footers, though.
The King is back!
Loved playing with your formations in FM16 and was disappointed that FM17 and FM18 made it difficult for winger formations to function until the latest patch of this edition or so.
Been testing the V1 and V2 for a handful of games (And with Real Madrid, mind you. Just playing...
