Been playing FM 2009 a while as Spurs and this is the first time i've tried this tactic over the course of a season. I'm currently playing in April 2009 and I wanted to let people know of it's effectiveness especially against teams boasting an organised midfield or those who often break fast and down the wings.
I'm having the best season i've ever managed to within the first year and am currently competing for the title. The odds are I have a solid chance of gaining it too as I don't have any of the top 5 to play with 7 games to go and the rest have tough run ins.
I should note that it hasn't entirely been effective against weak opposition, it should perhaps be changed to to a conventional 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1 in order to create more opportunities but the results speak for themselves.
Normally I get turned over by the standard top 4 when using a 4-4-2
Manchester United = 1 win, 1 loss
Chelsea = 1 win, 1 loss
Liverpool = 1 win, 1 draw
Arsenal = 1 win, 1 draw
Obviously the personnel are important and I managed to get good people in but give it a go next time you're chances of a win are low and see how it turns out
