A few points ;) If you're gonna use a high line it's probably not good to play out of defence. Move the ball quickly into the higher areas, use support and then let the defence push up. A high defence needs quick CBs to cover back. So you should have at least one CB with speed acceleration...

You need to make sure you download the Germany fix (which can be found on FM Base somewhere, I'm sure), probably manage in Germany and be a darn good manager. (There is a way you can do it using FMRTE. But I didn't tell you that, ok? ;) )

I'm not sure what you mean. You can manage Germany straight out of the box if you want.

'Concentrate' at the start and end of each half home or away. Irregular use of 'Concentrate' when away (I just spam them with it). 'Get Creative' mid way through each half at home and 'Push Forward' if they haven't scored and are being lazy bastards :D

Thanks man. Haven't noticed the defender thing but I still have SI's latest version of Goalkeepers Do The Craziest Things.

You can't equate passing success wholly to the tactic. Play this tactic with Wrexham and you can hardly expect 90% passing rates. I also explained in the op that my intention was to recreate Bayern/Germany, didn't get it right but found this instead ;) Dortmund only have 300k to spend? Jeez...

My first choice team for the prem season was GK - Johnstone, RB - Mayke, LCB -Wilson, RCB - Regen, LB - Danny Fox, DLP - Cohen, AP/s - Sergi from Barca, AP/a - Powell on loan, RMD/r = Paterson, Rmd/l - Abdoun, AF/A - Assombalonga Mayke and Johnstone sucked up my whole budget. Got Sergi for...

Thanks man. Look forwards to seeing how you get on. I'm seriously thinking that a game breaker can be built around BPDs launching balls , a covering deep midfield and a poacher.

Well I do have a beard. But only because I'm ****** lazy. hope this works because it would be cool to do some stuff like this. It will take us at least a week to nail down exactly how to set the tactic up. I am tempted to play Puskas as a shadow/treq/dlf in a 3-2-3-2. Any thoughts would be very...

Hey SK/A FB/S BPD/C BPD/C FB/S DLP/D AP/S AP/A RMD RMD AF/A the last patch claims to make more through balls so I'm currently trying the AF as a poacher and have him sit up there being a pain in the ****. Bit early to call it yet.

Here are some screens from the Prem season. The two losses were 1 away against Man City 2-1 and a loss once we had won the league and i let the ***. man take the game.

Nice one, thanks!

Regardless of how you're trying to build your tactic (and good luck), if you want to have a role for a 'Henry' it absolutely has to be Poacher. If you look at Henry's play, he was incredibly static for most of the game but had the ability to launch explosively at exactly the right moment...

Also, you're using a high line with both CBs on Defend. That's a bit risky, particularly as Mertesacker is slower than a glacier. Koscielny should almost certainly be set to Cover if you're gonna play high as he's quick enough to bail Mertesacker out. I play a high line with 2 cover CBs who...

In answer to 2. Somewhat leaky sometimes You're playing attacking wide players AND attacking wing backs. So you've got over a third of your team people attacking on the wings. Try leaving the wide midfielders on attack and the wing backs to Full back (support) and the FBs will naturally drift...
