I used this tactic with Celta i played two seasons first season.
First season I finished second and second i finished third. Overall great tactic .
The only problem I have and I am 90% sure it's the broken match engine strikers and wingers miss ridiculous chances.
Anyone has the same problem or it's just up to players ? By the way the attributes of the players don't justify these missed chances. Two out of three tap ins the goalkeeper makes a miracle save or the ball hits the crossbar from a shot 2 yard out .

Sometimes happens... but with all tactics you may have same problem. It is mostly about arrogance of your players... successful season decreases their motivation especially against smaller sides.

Half time and side talks may help to increase their concentration. Watch their body language time to time and warn them aggressively during match

I never praise my player even if I'm leading 3-0 at half time . Also all the side line talks I give are assertive or aggressive . The strikers seriously challenge my sanity

You know there are a lot of factors for scoring like composure, positioning, even players professionalism bla bla. It all affects scoring. As for me these things give reality to the game. Not everyone is nistelrooy, messi, ronaldo:)
 
Having problems with my Leverkusen team. Winning a couple of matches, then losing really undeserved a couple of games. Always creates more than the opponent, but Harry Kane has been really awful in this tactic. Often letting in goals from run in behind the centrebacks and from corners/freekick. What can I do? Most of the matches I lose are 0-0 till half time. Any advise?

You may remove offside trap. To buy faster centerbacks. There are some good defending setpieces routines in forum try one of them. Besides at least one of CM must have high tackling.
 
This tactic worked really well on my Brighton save and got me 7th in the Premier League, but it's really inconsistent now. Nothing else I try is working either :(
 
Hello everyone!
I'm enjoying this tactic (originaltatic, tatic in the firt post) enough, seems to be concistente, some yellow cards more, but so far everything is controlled .. :-)
Dear GobBluthJD which individual workouts use?
Which team drills that you use?
Do you use OI?

I leave training and workouts to Assistant Manager, and no OIs.

Just to update you.
This tactic for me is joint top with Beserk tactic from TFF with 83% win ratio until January in my United test saves.
Rest of tactics i have tried, lost/draw more than 5 games and are discarded at the current month.

Beserk was better points wise by 5 points as it lost no games.
Your tactic for me gave both my strikers a goal a game, which i prefer. Very even tactics but i think yours does shade it due to the goal a game for my strikers.

Cheers - thanks for the update!
 
I have tried to quit your tactic because on the next season syndrome...

I had to come back into it, its by far the best tactic in FM16!

Its easy to hold the cards, if you use team talks during half time to make them be more conscious of it (assertive: be carefull with the yellow card).

Also, check the number of fouls. If you are having too many, take hard tackle to avoid getting dangerous free kicks and to stop giving the ball to the opponent. Some times the team plays better without it!

So, just some tweaks during the match, but overall it works very well.

My only problem at the moment is Aboubakar. After 30 goals until January, the guy and my other strikers (Berardi and Martail), just don't score, even with the chances on them. I get them having a lot of shoots directly to the hands of the keepers or blocked by the opponent.

I've tried DLF, to come back a little bit or to roam out of position, but is just makes them getting more assists to the AMC.

Some tweaks here and this is outrageous!!!

Again, congrats!
 
No doubt the best tactic in FM 16. Third season with Arsenal. Have used it since I started the game. Ill let the screens speak for themselves.

do you keep the mentality on standard dude? or do you change it to attacking or control etc? Impressive results mate 8-|
 
I do not change the mentality. Two keys to this tactic imo are great fullbacks with good crossing and wingers that cut inside. They bring the opposition inside and all the fullbacks to fly down the wings and fling crosses in.
