listen,i had defensive problems with this tactic and did a few tweeks,now it just works WONDERS! third season with newcastle and i am leading the league UNBEATEN! also UNBEATEN in the champions league group stage! i made 15 games in the league,12 wins and 3 draws,scoring 55 goals and receiving 19.I'm 6 points between the 2° place team,so i'm gonna give you some tips here that may help:

* DON'T BE AFRAID OF TWEEK THE TACTIC,JUST DON'T DO IT TOO MUCH! me,for example,i observed that my defensive line was too pushed up and that my fullbacks weren't tackling that good,i mean,most of the goals i received were from wingers dribbling my fullbacks.So what i did was changed the fullbacks marking to zonal,tackling hard and decreased the defensive line a little bit.It worked very well!
* Still,when i faced teams that played with a 4-4-1-1 formation,the AMC got too free and always killed my defense.I ALWAYS losed for totenham because of it,so,i took the left striker away and putted a DMC for mark the adversary AMC,and it worked.I mean,wasn't getting THAT MUCH of CCC's like before but,1-0 or 2-1 still is a win.
* WoIfsongs teamtalk guide.
Why? an attacking team getts TOO OVER-CONFIDENT and tend to lose for **** teams,and when that happens,is 3 or 4 loses in a row for sure!
* Now,talking about the players and taking my Newcastle for example,first season i had steven taylor and coloccinni for DC.Well,you may think that they're very good,but here's what i tell you,MY TEAM ONLY STARTED WINNING TROPHYS WHEN I BOUGHT C.ZAPATA AND OTAMENDI.Also,i had Fraser Forster back from the loan,and he's AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The thing is,you must have a keeper with 16++++ reflexes and JUMPING at LEAST!!!!Two strong defensive fullbacks are also important,but they need a good passing!
* But,the most frustating thing about this tactic is that,if you don't have a STCR with at least 14/14 acc/pace,15 composure and 15 finishing(tecnique,decisions and off the ball are also very important) you'll never score goals.Why??? because the main thing about the tactic is getting the strikers in one-on-ones and if he doesn't have this attributes,he'll MISS!
* Also,pay attention to PPM's,for example,strikers with good finishing and composure will benefit from places shots,but,a STCL that doesn't have good finishing,like alexis sanchez for example,would benefit from rounding the keeper.Wingers like Hazard that doesn't have good finishing benefits from passing rather than scoring.
* Another good thing for defensive problems is you have STRONG(literally) mids.Fellaini for example,mahamadou diarra,n'koulou,are players that are mostly defensive but have a 10+ passing and that just works because the main attack is from wingers and strikers,the midfilders defend more than attack!


Well,i think that's it! if i recall something i'll edit the post,just give it a try! Good luck!
 
Il Devasto works best on 11.2. In fact its absolutely stunning on 11.2, real baby-making stuff.

Not so good on 11.3 which happens with tactics after new patches
 
This tactic is such excitement. Can't so no to all out attack football. Scoring most goals in premiere league with Leicester City but 7th in the table thanks to goal conceded. Just beat Man City 5-4.(6)
 
Screenshots?

Here are some screenshots some games later.Also,i putted some of my young prospects here and need some advice! what can i do for them to develop more faster? i mean,in the rhythm they're going,these players will only be first team in 4 years ¬¬ and they are all 180 CA + (i used FM Genie Scout to find them),already put them on tutoring and loaned some of them as well but still...I think the only one i can use in next season is Rosu,but Zapata is doing such a great work for me that i'm afraid replacing him.Also,i'm with 18 million budget for this summer window and man utd offered hazard a 44 million offer.Should i sell him? what players should i buy for strengthen my team?

Listen,like i said,i think this tactic(SATOROX'S devasto) works best if the player make his own tweeks.But the tactic is here 4-2-4 Il devastotout DEF TWEEKD (Newcastle, Jan 2013).tac - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download if you want. Just one advice: Your team in general (specially your fullbacks) may get too many yellow cards, so make sure you have good reserves,BUT,in my second season(with the tactic,third season on the game) i don't have this problem anymore.I think that's because i bought Zapata (DC) and Hargreaves(originally DM,but makes a great RB) and have a more quality mid,because the yellow cards comes right after a missed pass or tackling.

Good luck!

EDIT: Forgot to say something,one of the qualities of this tactic is also the set pieces:

Hi! This tactic is awesome but i was wondering... As i use Benfica (not a top team) i conceed a lot of goals with the 11.3 version for the 11.3 patch.

U've created a version for parma but it's for the 11.2 patch... Does it work on 11.3?

Cheers mate... and once again I say: This is the best tactic in Fm Base O.O
