not been playing long but this is how it's going so far, really nice

I'm testing this tactic with Sevilla and it seems good going forward but the defence seems fairly weak, I'm not sure if it's just because sevilla are **** or if its the tactic but there seems to be a massive hole between the 2 CB's which every team with fast strikers just exploit and its pretty...

i always try and buy Fred from Fluminense for wolves and hes usually amazing (striker)

i know this tactic isn't new anymore but i thought id give it a try for my arsenal team and i just wanna show you the craziest match i've ever seen on football manager http://oi55.tinypic.com/2w7ip94.jpg

I love that kind of formation but i can never get it to work with lesser skilled teams, i will give this a go but im assuming its one of those that are great for the good teams and not so much with worse off teams. trying it with leeds btw

I will give it a read now, thanks alot :) ---------- Post added at 06:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ---------- so far in my friendlies im finding that Defensive is working much better than Counter so im considering sticking with defensive

I was just wondering if somebody with a little more experience on this style of play could give me a few pointers. should i give my goalkeeper and particular Player Instructions? any distribution? should i play with a standard 442 or more of a 451? should i use a flat 442 or push my wingers up...

ok so im using a inside forward/winger on each side and they always get past the opposition defence but at a tight angle to goal, but they always seem to take the shot on and hit it straight at the keeper even though theres 1 or 2 players free in the area, 1 small pass across the box would...

ok thanks i will look for that thread :)

Ok, i've spent the last like 20 hours trying to get any set of tactics that will work with Nottingham Forest, and i can't, I must be the shittest ever Football Manager player because they are predicted to finish first in the championship and i cant get any higher than 3rd. So, i just got angry...

i use beckford and earnshaw it works quite well

I'm currently using your flat 442 formation with Nottingham Forest in the championship, in my first season i failed miserably did absolutely awful first half of the season and was like 16th place or something, managed to scrape 5th place and then lost on penalties in the playoff final. 2nd...
