Hey guys, I dont normally post on forums but thought I would as my first 2 seasons with villa went great

Season 1: finished 7th in the league an won capital one cup

Season2: finished 3rd in the prem and won capital cup again and europa

In season one I played a 4-5-1 mainly and in the prem I was W16 D9 L13 57pts 7th. I bought in Whelan on loan, Grobkreutz loan, bouba diop on a free.
Guzan (sweeper keeper)

Herd (RB) Clarke (CB cover) Vlaar (CB Stopper) Warnock (LB) All on defend duty.


Gardner (CM) Diop (BWM) Bannan (CM) All on Support.


Agbonlahor (AMR) N Zogbia (AML) Both Attack
Inside Forward Inside Forward

Bent (STR)
Poacher

Subs I used were Baker,Gardner,Holman,Ireland,El ahmadi,weiman and benteke.

Played short passing game, pressing more and Attacking football

Instructions at the start of the game were:

Get the ball forward
Pas to keep
Work ball into the box
Drop Deeper
Hasstle opponents.

Season 2 was exactly the same except for transfers.

Out were: Ireland, Holman, N zogbia, Al ahmadi, Warnock, and alot of the reserves

In were: Adam Johnson, Gelson Fernandes, Glen whelan, Grobkreutz, Muntari, Djamel Mesbah, Andy Carroll, and Jem Karacan.

Just started on season 3 won 7 out of 12 in prem but not so good in the champions league as I drew Barcelona and Shaktar hehe, ofcourse I overachieved finishing 3rd but the tactics used have never let me down. I have used them since FM 11 hpe they help.
 
Its an up and down tactic for me.

I played really well in one game, but I went horrific when I started another one with Villa and used the same tactic, even though morale was high and I bought 7 new players using a money trick.
