[14.2] Bossa nova's

[Gannicus]

This is terrible. No idea how people are having success with it. Extremely leaky, full backs don't work. Doesn't score enough to make up for the defense issues.

Better back up with some more info if you're gonna complain mate, otherwise you're not being constructive at all.

The tactic isn't fluid yet on my save, but I can already see it's a a winning tactic, I'm on top of the league as Manchester United (with 7 key players sidelined because of injuries.. screw this patch). However, if I were to complain; I'd say that the only "upset" is that most of my goals comes from corners and not from game play. But then again, I can only see the potential of this tactic because:
1. I'm missing so many players (grandpa Giggs are starting most of the games).
2. The tactic is far from fluid. Still I've won like 10 games out of 14 (3 draws, 1 loss).


Thank you for sharing this with us! Appreciate it a whole lot mate! I'll give a full review once I've finished my first season, so far I've had a better start than David Moyes.

Sorry for the double post, but this is another topic:

Any advice on what type of players I should play in this tactic?
What I mean by what type, is what kind of attributes do you find important? For the Gengenpressing v2 tactic of another user on this forum (it's a 4231 formation), high workrate was the difference between failure and success. Any particular stats for this setup?

 

[Gerd Muller]

the crush dumps this ******* Game. He was second in the absence of 3 matches and the final of the Cup of France.

I think a great tactic but defensively is pretty bad

I'll keep trying

have you tried removing the 'push higher up' instruction?

 

[NantesFC]

Great tactic, but indeed, very weak defensively.
I conceed so many CCCs from ball through the back of my defense.
I'll try the match prep def postionning to improve my defense

 

[Crane]

It's quite clear why it's poor defensively. No cover for the back 4.

 

[feche]

The tweaked version is much better.

 

[cragswfc]

How about this one compared with the Chinese CS team tactic?

I think it is but the defense on cs is better

The tweaked version is much better.

I started to test it yesterard day but went out and got smashed

Here's a more updated set of results using the tactic:

View attachment 438867

I changed the defense to 'drop deeper'

 

[MrGrieve]

First game as Barce v Napoli 6-0 win using Crags tweaked version.

 

[vitoco]

the amount of CCC for and against is increditable....in last game, they had 6 CCC and I had 6 CCC..

I changed to drop deeper and remove offside trap, things then got better...

 

[lebordelais8233]

where is the tweaked version ?

 

[Gannicus]

Tweaks added;

- Centre halve Dual Role tweaked.
- Set pieces - freekicks, df corners/freekicks, throw ins
- team instructions - work ball into box, run at defence, stay on feet

You just made my life a **** lot easier. This tactic works great!

Is this tactic attacking? Counter?

Is this tactic attacking? Counter?

Attacking mate

 

[chatin]

have you tried removing the 'push higher up' instruction?

I'll try. This time with a mid-table team: Eintracht Frankfurt.

Remove offside also?

 

[NantesFC]

Got destroyed 6-2 by Everton with Man City using the tweaked one.
Conceed because of 2 mistakes of Kompany and Javi Garcia and 4 corners...

God I hate this patch

 

[lebordelais8233]

any screens of the tweaked version results please?

 

[NantesFC]

Sadly I have to give up this tactic as it doesn't work at all with Man City
