dude you cant judge a tactic is good by just looking your pre season. test it a whole season or maybe a half is enough. i'm looking forward for your season result and if its good i'll be happy testing it for you. of course with other team. cheers :D
from your post, i think your conceded too much for barca. my advice, maybe you must tweak your defense a little bit. well i'm gonna try it to how see it works, great job though cheers (H)
i dont know with 4-4-2 but with 4-5-1 you can use like ajt09 told, and sometimes i made my left full back become defensive and my right become attacking. my longest clean sheet is 1045 minute with barcelona. very effective
looks good with your tactic here some result:
5-0 chelsea (community shield)
2-0 blackburn
2-0 arsenal (at emirates)
1-1 wigan
2-0 west ham
2-0 anderlecht
2-2 aston villa
the problem is it seems no more than two goals except against chelsea. rooney only score 1-2 goals at league, even tough he...
sorry if this already asked, what training schedule you used? and can i look your transfer history in your first season with united? sorry if this off topic. i'm gonna try this tactic, looks fantastic ;)
