You do need dominant and fast defenders - especially the centre backs. I use sakho and balanta with otamendi as back up. Lucas romero or lars bender are my preferred registers. That's not bad going for a first season though. team talks are key also. I am very harsh with my players. home or...

Think this needs a bump. Currently 51 games unabated in the league (started a new game after the 15.2.1 hot fix patch). So it does work on the latest versions. Would like people to test this tactic for themselves and provide feedback if possible. Cheers. JD.

Progress update: Season 4 with LFC. PREMIER LEAGUE INVINCIBLES / CHAMPIONS LEAGUE (H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H)(H) Well, well, well. Not since FM 2011 and before that 2005 I have put together a tactic that delivers like this one. I'd really like some of you to download this and...

54% is fine against an Everton side that likes to pass it around and keep it. Plus if you read Pep Confidential at any time Guardiola loathes Tikka Takka. Says 'It's ****' in fact. Passing for the sake of it. He has a 15 pass rule. Move the ball and opposition around with 15 passes and then...

I have bought Gabriel Barbosa so I leave him as a winger and rotate between Sturridge, Barbosa and Balotelli as the F9.

I choose to do it the other way around though, always have. Stamina first, other stats develop on their own over time.

This is why the full backs are set to 'Get further forward' but not to look for the overlap. Take Alaba for example, he isn't a midfielder, but what he does do is push up to join the line of existing midfielders. That way if a move breaks down, and you will see this when watching the matches...

Funny thing is - I put both Gerrard and Sterling on stamina focus, same with Markovic. Gerrard so that I can get the last drop of talent from him each week without having to rotate him and sterling because his stamina is only 11 at the start. I let the rest of his stats develop through playing.

Playing the game as I type and here's a ss of the match I have just finished vs Everton.

I though you were saying that youngsters need to be coached for a period before they are ready and so I stated that this tactic negates any need for that and you can play your 2nd or 3rd string and still get great performances. Anyway, before this 'debate' carries on without any direction, has...

You have a point but then again you could argue that with a top tactic you can throw in youngster's and they can shine. Take Jordan Rossiter for example - only 18 but excels in midfield when I play him. His stats are far from peaking - in fact most league one players have more rounded stats...

Yes but when managing a big club you need instant results and the tactic delivers that. You can then model your own training to suit. However I tend to buy players I know are capable of performing at the highest level from day one.

Just try the tactic lads. That is what will bring success, not your training.

Chill guys - it's christmas lol anyway I don't have any individual training in place to post a ss for. It is set to balanced with 75% in favour of more match training, which gives a light work load overall. I use this during the season and in pre season I have one week of intensive fitness...
