Alright, below is my tweak on the current version of mlssmith's great tactic

Changes
* Removed the out of possession instruction "Get Stuck In"
* Removed all instances of the individual instruction "Tackle Harder"
* Set both central midfielders to Central Midfielder / Support - no individual instructions
* Set the MR to mirror the ML (##)

I use this for every match, home and away.

I could not get any of my players (I am playing as Leicester, currently first season of an eventual youth players only save - so no signings at all) to perform as the Box-to-Box. I tried out a vanilla Central Midfielder / Support and liked it. Tried both as Central Midfielder / Support and really liked it. They appeared to adapt to the game better. Ndidi in this role is a beast. I have seen him make 70 yard lung bursting runs to cover counter attacks and tackle in our penalty area.

(##) My current ML is Albrighton (right footed) and my current MR is Ghezzal (left footed), so the Wide Midfielder / Attack is working nicely. When I play a right footed MR (Gray on occassion) or a left footed ML (doesn't really happen), then I switch the role to Winger / Attack (no change in instructions)

The removal of Get Stuck In and Tackle Harder is purely personal preference and I have not noticed any negative issues. I want my team playing without this side of the game.

Not sure if just an oddity in my game, but Vardy has 25 goals in 27 games and ZERO assists...... So feel free to play a pure goalscorer there :)
Albrighton is playing awesome at ML and Maddison is a revelation at Shadow Striker. Chilwell and Pereira are custom made for the attacking full back roles.

This tactic was introduced after the Chelsea loss. Since then we have been going great. The 3-3 draw and Southampton loss (90th minute winner from a corner for them!) were both unfortunate and the only non wins in 13 games.

mlssmith - if you would rather I remove this, just let me know!
 
Well my tweak of the two tactics was simply to remove "get stuck in" from the team instructions and "tackle harder" from each players individual instructions.

I am using the tactics as instructed and the only other tweak was the first one mentioned for the away tactic by mlssmith.

Below is a screenshot of the recent table and ne of recent form.

You just guessed at the meaning of my response. I was just giving my feedback. It's great you jumped on horse back and rode to his defense but honestly, no need.

chill bud. Just gave my feedback, whats with the defensive reactions ffs

People getting far too touchy on the internet these days


Personally, love the tactic. Ive started using the home & away tweaks. Absolutely no issues with the op ones though, just want to try out of interest. Thanks for this bud.

Thank youl. Is there any reason why you changed the striker role? PF was working for me
 
@shirt10 Great tweak!

I was using original tactics and getting some good results with Brighton (original squad with Livakovic and Tonali in and Murray, Bruno and Schelotto out), but since I use that tweak it has get more consistent. Now I'm on 6th position with a real chance of Europe for next season.

Thanks!
 
in how many shots, can you convert a goal? I had sweet tac and have shot at least 20 shots plus, but most of them blocked out.....
