Really nice tactic ^^) I always like to play with 3 strikers and this fits perfect. It did improve my overall team performance a bit at first.
The real huge change however came when I started to strictly follow my assistant managers advice during the matches. For example - Milan was beating me 0-1 at half time. Then I did all the little bits offered - putting players on weaker side, tight marking, etc. I destroyed them 4-1 during the second half.

I noticed that at least for me the performance of the team jumps real high if I tell them to put the opposition strikers on weaker side, hard tackle them and always mark them tight. If the game is still a bit hard, I do the same for the oppositions attacking midfielders and central midfielders. Works like a charm in 98 % of the games. And my central defenders end up with a rating of 7.8-9.2.

The team is still vulnerable on some set pieces. And I get a fair share of cards. But I barely suffer a defeat with this tactic.
 
Trying this with Aldershot been battered every game with my tactic.
 
Tested this with Leicester, lost 7 matches in a row, this tactic should be called "don't use it if you don't want lose"
 
Started unemployed and am now in my second job having taken over FC Halifax who have just been promoted to the North Blue Square.

I've tried to sign players using the suggested player attributes. As you'd imagine, its difficult to find players who want to join but I have signed essentially a whole new team. Unsurpisingly I got beaten in my first game which was at home 0-2 but as everyone knows, tactics need time to work so I'm not worried yet.

Is the general consensus saying that you should now use OI's based on your Assistant Manager's advice or to just keep to the original script of letting him do team talks only?

Cheers
 
Im playing with these broobs tactics last 10 seasons with Blyth (north conference team). Im now in Premier League. I didnt tested this one but I will try now. Also in last ones only big minus is defending set pieces.
 
sorry for my bad English, you should test the zonal marking with tight marking in the fullbacks. Keep up the good tactics.

All I can say is...wow. Using this tactic with Chelsea Just over half way through the season, in all competitions I've drawn 4 games, won the rest. My FB's seem to get an awful lot of booking, and I only EVER concede at set pieces, apart from that this tactic is perfect. My LCM always seems to get a low rating for some reason :S

On average I score 3 and concede once each game.

Fantastic.

What i tried and it work (to not concede from set pieces) is to set match prep to defence set pieces. I worked for my southampton team, and stopped getting yellow cards and red cards. Try it.
 
Here is my firs game with this tactics. My steak without wining come to the end.

So I have started a save with Saint Etienne in France. First few games were really rocky, conceding too much, especially from cornes. I adjusted the corner defending and now it is better. But it is still the thing between FB and CB, but i guess that is beacus my left CB is a slow one. I have no transfer budget, cant sell my wingers beacus they have just joined, so first season should be very interesting. But I want too return the glory to Les Verts. Looks very good though, will post updates in a few:)

This tactic is pretty **** terrible, it may work for some, but definitely not for me.

I lost 2-1, had 1 shot on target, and got 2 reds in the first game. Made no chances at all and spent the whole game getting battered. I don't see how this can be successful at all, as your team sits so deep so you can never get the ball to your strikers so you create nothing.
 
Just played this tactic with Liverpool vs Chelsea and won easily 5-0!!!! I'm loving it
Thank you Brobs :):):)

OMG you lost ONE game which was your first game where your players were not at all used to the tactic and you the morale of your team is probably at an all time low OMG OMG

Thats an absolutely RIDICULOUS review to give the tactic, ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS,

Give it time to settle in 7-8 games in the OP, I along with pretty much everyone using this tactic have had amazing success with this tactic and theres no doubt that its the best on the forum and the best one for FM 11 and for people who don't think it is haven't tried it or done judgement too quickly so stick with it and quit being such a ****

Please leave this site and never come back!! One game = a bad tactic. Tell me, do you ever get past pre-season in any of your saves? Do you change tactic everytime after one bad result?
 
I tried this tactic in a new save with Stoke City, finished 8th with only a few new signings, but my chairman sold me best player (Shawcross) at the END of the Jan transfer and was let feeling like I had a huge cap in defence because of it, and I went from 4th after beating Man united 2 times, once in league and once in Cup Qtr finals! I think If Shawcross wouldnt of been sold I would be around 5-6th easy, I was SO angry at my chairman, it was £15m and I guess it was alot of money but stupid time to sell him in the middle of a fantastic season!

Oh well, I give this tactic 10/10 very good, I am now going to try it in lower leagues!
 
Using this in my 2nd season as Lewis in the BSP, and doing surprisingly well. I can't really find many players to fit the exact description but I do have some pacy strikers and tall defenders, so those aspects are working really well.

I'm 5th but have most goals scored in the division. Corner instructions are awesome, I'm getting so many goals from there.

One thing I'm wondering, I know you say don't mess with it, should I focus match prep on set pieces? It's my strongest point and since all my players are semi-pro, I have no intention of actually improving anyone on the training ground yet.


edit- just for perspective, my wage budget is currently about 3,500/week. I'm playing against individual players who earn that! The pinnacle was beating jammy Luton 3-0 in front of their absurdly numerous 6,000 fans.

Used this tactic as Exeter City (L1) and was awesome in pre-season; beating Burnley 4-3, Wigan 1-0, and Liverpool 2-1, without any real class signings, so was looking forward to what results it would produce in the league!

Zoom forward to Jan 2011, I'm in 19th place W8 D4 L16 F36 A56. Obviously League 1 opposition is far more challenging than the likes of Liverpool!

Seems to be working fine for everyone else so must just be my match engine or something! The tactics search continues :P
