Hello guys, this is an update to my orginal 12.1.1 tactic because this fairs much better as is pretty much as close as the ultimate tactic that I can get for this patch. USE THIS ONE NOT MY PREVIOUS 12.1.1 Tactic. Sorry for making a new thread but the difference in the manner of results needs it.
It is pretty **** incredible once again, its been tried and tested with Thurrock (predicted bottom of the blue square south), Burnley (predicted mid table of the championship) And Wigan (relegation candidates in the premier league) and Southampton. After a season completed with Thurrock and Burnley I won both leagues with no signings. This is an incredible achievement for Thurrock because they are the worst team in the game and are currently bottom of their league in real life. I absolutely destroyed the league winning by about 17 points and having the best attack and defense in the league. Burnley I confortably won the league likewise with Southampton. With Wigan I only played 12 games or so to really give it a test and it worked really well. Beat alot of big clubs and currently joint second and a point behind city. (INCREDIBLE for wigan). I have put screenshots of the more impressive results that this can produce.
The Tactic is again on how I think Football should be played. Football is not about short passing but about selecting the right pass whether long or short - its about having a Plan B if Plan A is not working. The only way way that this tactic may slip up on is if the game cheats you out of a win and with the AI keeper having the game of this life which is pretty **** frustrating.
The Tactic is based on zonal positioning so the team know there jobs and positioning before a ball has even been kicked rather than basing marking on how the opposition set up and altering the positioning of the team depending on how AI plays i.e different opposing formations.
I also want to make a point of playing players who are fresher and have a better condition if possible. AI really takes the condition of players into account and the better the condition of the players the better they will perform. Try to have a squad of atleast 25 squad players who are all good enough to fill into the first team. And rest your better players if you have a big game coming up etc.
So down to the tactic:
It is a 4-1-2-3 formation (my specialty)
(make sure these settings/rules are followed):
PLEASE PLUG IN THIS TACTIC AT THE VERY START OF THE GAME OR IN PRE-SEASON IF YOU ARE IN YOUR SECOND SEASON.
Pitch Size: Minimum
Plug and Play tactic (classic)
NO Opposition Instructions
Team talks to assistant manager
No match shouts as it is a Classic Tactic.
Match preparation
Work Load: Average
Additional Area Focus: Defensive Positioning
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Player requirements:
GK: Jumping, Reflexes, One on Ones and Rushing out
CBs Jumping, heading,stamina, tackling and marking
FBs Positioning Tackling Pace Heading Marking Team Work Workrate
DMC Passing, tackling, marking, stamina.
CMS Pass and technique and workrate
For 3 Strikers Pace,dribbling,technique, acceleration,off the ball and finishing.
PLUG AND PLAY TACTIC. Do not tinker with the tactic
Set-piece are set up in the tactic.
Give it 7-8 games to settle in and do not tinker with the tactic or put OI's on. Although it should be working quicker than this if you have plugged it in at pre-season. Please plug and play this and do not let the computer simulate results.
On team instructions I have ticked counter attack, use target man and use playmaker. It gets the ball up to the strikers more quicker by enabling this in the team instructions. There is no specific playmaker/target man so do NOT drag players into the 'playermaker' or 'target man' option.
If my team goes down to 10 men = Take a central midfielder off... its vital to keep 3 strikers in this tactic, due to the special marking upfront.
Let me know what you think of it, any enjoy the tactic especially those of you who prefer to manage smaller clubs! I'm certain you will enjoy it, have fun. (Tactic is at the bottom of the post)
Here is some proof of the tactic works:
