I happened to watch and analyse a bit of the said game (City - Chelsea) and I wouldnt say you want a libero if you wanna replicate Guardiola's gameplan vs Chelsea. If you want a defender to step into midfield, you wanna use a half back, they pretty much do exactly what you wanna achieve with it...

Kortney Hause & Danny Batth for defenders. Conor Hourihane if you need a midfielder.

For me, your midfield is the thing that you wanna sort out. If you break down your tactic in bits, you have 2 attackers, 2 ''wingers'' from the CWB's, Enganche, a BBM & DLP with S. Thats 7 players dedicated to being offensive. I dont know if youre trying to have a possession tactic here or what...

Go for Kortney Hause & Danny Batth, both should be @ Wolves and both are quality, especially Hause, hes young aswell.

Danny Batth & Kortney Hause.

Danny Batth & Kortney Hause.

Yea and our defenders are still too dumb to throw their bodies at obvious crosses which goes past right under their noses not to mention when a winger is on the byline and the cross is obviously imminent, the players are way too dumb to realise ''Oh yea theres that striker there maybe I should...

I started my first save in FM17 with Wolves and I ended up winning championship within first season with simple possession-based 4-3-1-2, but I'd call it more of a 4-3-3 narrow. But I used also 4-2-4 and I kept tweaking along the way aswell based on opposition formation (due to me wanting to...

And heres me thinking wing play is still OP, at least I feel like most of the goals I concede is a winger running to byline(ish) and crossing in very accurately and boom.

What do you want to achieve? How do you want your team to play? I can offer ideas once YOU provide the vision you have for your team.

I have never tried to create this switch flanks tactic in a possession based tactic, but I guess if you want it to happen from both sides as the game goes, then you need to have a relatively balanced tactic with enough people in front to dominate possession and use roles like Wide Target Man or...

I can offer ideas if your seeking a more possession oriented tactic, but it should be you who decides what type of footy you want your liverpool side to play.

Heres a few notes that I think is not necessarily thought out properly in this setup. 1st - Unbalanced defense. You have your attacking full back and your stopper on the same side of the pitch, which can potentially leave openings on your left side of defense and opponent wingers will use this...

And what is it exactly you want to achieve with ur tactic? What is your vision in terms of how you want your team to play? Possession? Direct/Less direct? Counter attack, sitting deep? With the squad you have disposal, there could be load of people coming in to tell you how you could play, but...

If the question is directed at me, my formation is more or less 3-2-4-1 and variations from that. Either 3 CB's or 1 CB and 2 FB with attack duty. 2 CM's with Deep Lying Playmaker with Defend & Box to Box midfielder. 4 attacking midfielders are 2 Advanced Playmakers with support and on the...
