Why do people think Barcelona play with wingers! Do you ever see Messi Villa and Pedro running back to help out at the back..........
G-ZUSS CHRIST. :O
I think my head just exploded?
Messi back tracks and helps out in midfield. He doesn't just stand up front waiting for the ball to be played to him. By having him as a striker you're only having him in the opponents half even when you're defending, which can be effective, but isn't how they play IRL.
almost 150!!! Well done
You... how? My word, well done sir.
Some achievement. Would Pastore work in the Xavi role do you think?

Wow.. 146 passes, sensational mate, Looks like a complete barca tactic, the passing, the goals and the results.

No!
Do you ever see AML or AMR inside forward with attack duty running back to defence? No, you don't. They are on the wings and cut inside from there. efensive dutys, and the defence they do is as important as their fabulous passing game. They press high up the field immediately when they lose the ball. If you really want to be sure that they don't run to defence, change their position from STCR and STCL to STR and STL.
Also, they don't use flat 3 in the middle. The defensive midfielder, Busquets or Macherano, is far more defensive, rarely running forward. When barca attacks, Busquets drops between the CBs to cover wingbacks running forward, making it 3 CBs to prevent counterattacks.
So, like every other barca tactic I have seen, you should use 4-5-1 with 1 DM, 2 CMs, another Xavi and other Iniesta/someone else with more advanced role and Pedro and Messi playing as AML&R. You can also use swap position with Messi and Villa.
So you have Barcelona tactic that works very well, and deserves credit, but you dont have tactic that simulates how Barca play in real life.
OMG 146 passes!!!
I bow down to you.
How can i get like you?
When will this be put on for us to try... I wouldn't mind helping you out with this if you like?
Kool quick question... How do you play Xavi?
Try Villa as a target man and Messi as a poacher with Bojan either a complete foward or a poacher too.

If you play Messi as a poacher that will take away from him dropping deep. Messi has a "False Nine" in the Barcelona tactic, coming deep to get the ball and then making runs at the defense. As a poacher he will sit too high up the field and rely too much on the service of others.
Looking sick. Is it still getting a lot of shots? Cause that could be a problem with passing the ball around TOO much.
has this tactic been released yet
