Building From The Back Tactic

[andyzinc]

I started managing brazil a few seasons ago after getting offered the job. The tactic i wanted to create for them was one that played similar to how they play today. Lots of possesion, chances, slow effective buildups etc.

To achive this i decide to build the attacks from the defence and keep alot of the possesion there and around the midfield. This i've done by putting the defenders passing on short, about 3-4 clicks from the lowest settings and a defensive mentality.
One of the two cental mids is set to a DLP defend and is the main playmaker so the defenders try to pass to him more then to hoof the ball up and clear it.

The attacking player are not set too high on attacking and mainly have average creative freadom to stop them from rushing into the attacks as much. The only players that have high creative fredom are the amc and the lone forward.

Passing wise the mids ar set a click or two higher than the defenders and the attackers a few higher then the mids but are mainly short passing. This combined with a average to fast tempo means the players are knocking the ball around keeping possesion before making a attack.

Also the counter attack has been ticked off to stop the fast attacks and help the build up play i was trying to achive.

Pitch size - normal
OI - ask assistant
Team Talk - up to you
Match Prep - team blend

I am currently managing MU.. and won treble last year (thanks for your tactic) ^^)

Just wondering, why you set your AMC as target man?

but, fantastic tactic mate
the most underrated tactic on fm-base if i must say

 

[andyzinc]

The Treble..Well done

The reason i set the AMC as the target man was beacuse i wanted to get him involved in the play more . seting him to TM and Supply run onto ball so the team looks to play him in moreoften. I couldn't set him as primary playmaker beacuse ive set that to the deep lying playmaker which i didn't want to change because having him as the palymaker the defnders look to pass to him more and not bang the ball up the pitch to clear it and lose possesion in the process.

Thanks for the positve comments btw. much appreciatedXD
