Using the parma 4-2-4 version with my Birmingham squad (11.3 patch on default database, season 3) worked well for me for 7-8 games or so, then I somehow lost to West Brom 0-3 away, probably the AI adjusted to counter the tactic, switched to my 4-5-1 then did well for 5-6 games, now that I've lost 1-2 away to Nottingham Forest and 0-3 away to Man Utd I am going back to this tactic

I do like this tactic, blitzes the opposition for 20+ shots and scores quite a few goals
 
Won (almost) everything with Zizou tactic in 11.3 patch

I do a full season with Benfica in my 6th season with the club. I looking for win the Champions League and I do!

I just didn't won the Portuguese Premier League because Porto do it very well and won me 2 times for the league.

There is the screenshots that speeks for himselfs:

i have tried the original devasto with man utd on 11.3 and it didnt go to well.
Would like to test another version...which is best zizou, 11.3 beta or the devasto 2 (punte palermo) ???
please help, thanks
 
i think different types of this tactic siuts different teams and players people say original one does not work but with my united team have won prem 7 seas in row 3 champs legues fa cup 4 seas in row carling cup 3 seas in row and comm sheild 7 seas inrow scoring nearly 150 goals in league every season and have broken nearly every record out there in 7 seas all on 11.3
 
Yeah ive noticed, tactics just perform differently for different people. I'm going to give all the devasto versions a test until I find one which works for me. Im using ZIZOU'S first, and it is doing really well so far so fingers crossed. Just beat Arsenal 6-1 away and my strikers are on fire!

thanks, i know which tactic to try next now if zizou doesnt hold up.
Shall try the punte palermo ! is that the devasto 2, where the 2 strikers are both "finalizers" ?

Silly really - it's almost like cheating when you get it right...

I seem to be the only one who doesn't get great success with this.....

Its kinda the reason I made my 4-2-4. ;)
 
OMFG you won a friendly against a lower club.....



yeh but you didnt see the way we played - i already swapped to il devesto mid season in my last CPFC save, and I won the league. I'm trying again with a new save with the tactic going from the start to see how good. That was just the 3rd game using it, and 10-0 against anyone is good. I have lost to Bury before in pre-season!

Just won my first CH game 6-1 easily.

This tactic just plain rocks.

Gonna make a save to test the newly released tactic. I (h) you SATOROX
