    Offensive mentality

    I think it is generally more pleasing to play attractive football no ? I mean that's why so many United fans are livid about Jose Mourinho, because he doesn't play attractive attacking football ?

    Tactics for small clubs / UNDERDOGS

    Why can't I keep possession?

    How to get to play possession football. Hi James. I've always played possession tactics on FM, and it can be really hard and seemingly illogical at times the way the engine operates. I think the two biggest problems are the fact that you're passing into space and using mixed passing...
