Hello,


I'm happy that I can share my new tactic - Cerberus. This tactic was tested on Arsenal FC on 15.2.1 patch.

Tactics name is not accidental - Cerberus had three heads - each head is one of offensive players in this tactic: False Nine supported by Inside Forward and Winger. Also very important is neck as Shadow Striker. Next we have Deep Lying Playmaker and Box to Box Midfielder. Defensive players are two Central Defenders supported by Wing Backs.

I played Arsenal FC, in my opinion its preaty good team to use this tactic. I chose players:

Sweeper Keeper - Szczesny, Ospina

Wing Back (Right) - Debuchy, Chambers (Will be great to have player, in addition to the defending skills, with good crossing skill)

Central Defender (Right) - Mertesacker, Romagna (It have to player with good heading skills, because we need him in set pieces)

Central Defender (Left) - Koscielny, Balanta (Could be lower but faster than CDR, we have more belaying)

Wing Back (Left) - Gibbs, Silva (Will be great to have player, in addition to the defending skills, with good crossing skill)

Box to Box Midfielder - Ramsey, Romero (We need typical Box2box, will be great to have player with good long shots skill - Pogba will be master here)

Roaming Playmaker - Wilshere, Tielemans (We need typical playmaker here)

Inside Forward (Right) - Sanchez, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Walcott (We need fast player, with good dribble and crossing skills. Our Right Inside Forward won't cut inside)

Shadow Striker - Ozil, Cazorla (I chose players with good playmaking skills, but I think players like Rooney will be dynamite on this possition)

Inside Forward (Left) - Podolski, Depay (It have to be player with very good long shot, dribble and technique skills, better leg isn't very important. Our Left Inside Forward will cut inside)

False Nine
- Giroud, Mitrovic (I played Giroud in main squad, he scored a lot. We need strong player with good finishing, so I think players like Giroud -Drogba will be great here)

Assisatant Coach resposibillity is to set pre-match instructions.

Team talks - You have to win this! (VS weak teams) and Play for the supporters (VS strong teams)

Thought that in FM15 won't be option to create plug-and-play tactics, but I think this is it.

I played main squad in BPL and Champions League. All other games belonged to the second squad.

Giving this a shot as Tottenham. But I'll adjust the F9 into a complete forward (support).
 
Going to try this with my Southampton team. On another note this forum seems to be very quiet lately. Threads die off through lack of interest a lot it seems.
 
Scored 98 in the league finishing third using this formation alongside a couple that I made. Only issue I have with this formation is you shell goals at times, it does sometimes appear like your defence are strangers. Over 50 goals conceded in the league.
do like but need to work a few tweaks out.

The reason for this is, 2 IFs on attack roles, and no DMs
Also WBs
Basically no one on defence duty but the CBs

That the reason I play 4-2-3-1 with 2 DMs instead.

If played with CMs, should have one on D duty, and wingers on support duty for a more solid team
Still looks a nice tactic
more 4-2-3-1 to the people! :)
