I love your tactics, TFF, they are great. I'm overachieving a lot with my small team :) The only AI tactic I'm having trouble with is when going with Demolisher (currently using 1 or 2 stikers) vs a good team that employs a 4-2-3-1. Usually my WBs can't handle attacking wingers, either losing...

I think you need to put on of your central midfielders on a more defensive role with more closing down, so he'll work with your wingback so they both attack the wingback and winger. Most of the 3 defender tactics seem to use a normal or higher defense line, so the centre-backs can cover each...

I'm tempted to convert the DM/AMC to a libero with Support/Attack duty :)

Cool, thanks, I'll re-check the attributes, but thanks for the info guys.

OK, but he has the attributes but hasn't got the role mastered. I just wonder if he'll get the CF role suitability higher if only training for it and playing his old role (DLF). And how much will he underperform if played as CF which he hasn't mastered?

My team has mostly the simpler versions of Strikers - Poachers, False 9, DLF, Defensive Forwards. Is it possible to teach a 18-23 year old player to be good as a Complete Forward? Currently they have 2 out of 10 on the role suitability circle as CF, but they are quite competent in usually 2-3...

Works fine for me, on my way to 3rd promotion in a row (1st and 2nd season with Reaver, now with Beast). Two things make me wonder. One is the WB instructions. Sometimes they both hesitate to run forward, as if they knew the midfielders won't play the ball to them there. They go forward and...

I'm also playing Pompey, but I didn't run into FFP or wage limit issues. Pompey has a good transfer and wage budget, but financially the club doesn't make much money to sustain it - tickets are cheap, sponsorship deals aren't big (for half of the season in L1 there wasn't a kit sponsor deal in...

I signed an South Korean youngster in my Portsmouth game. He was capped at U-21, but isn't known enough for a work permit. Is it possible to do ordinary loan deals to other EU countries, so the player that didn't get a work permit can accumulate his days there and maybe play on a good level to...

I've seen that too on the 4-1-2-2-1 (I think V4 or V6, need to check it at home). DR is going forward but rarely gets a pass from the CM/IF. Also DRs have been getting very bad ratings for their performance after 15 games (either both of them have a bad streak, or it's caused by the tactic...
