What you need to know about the tactic..
NOTE #1 - The full backs take the (short) corners.

NOTE #2 - If you try this tactic than give it some time. I am here to help you out but think logically and analyse when the tactic isn't working for you.


NOTE #3 - Use the PRESS version against teams who play short passing football. If you face a team who plays long or direct passing football, go to team instructions and select 'drop deeper' and deselect 'offside trap'. Use the HOLD version for holding the lead at the end of the match. See the spoiler below for information.

I took some time to understand this correctly.

When the scouting report from your next game comes, look closely too this

Then go to (this example) Dortmund team, select the Head Coach and see his playing style

I choose this time Drop and it work for me! But that was in the first half, in the second half they changed their tactic to passing and it almost cost me, I changed to Press and we contained the attack (I left for the restroom for 3 minutes tops and from 4 shots in the 1H, they made 9 shots in 10 minutes of game time in the second half, as Christian says put attention to the game as it changes fast! In the away game I did not put to much attention to this and the game ended 1-1. The same against arsenal.

Hope that this helps.

NOTE #4 - I am not sure it will work with lower teams, but it might work well. Let's have a test and report me back, please!


The formation - Balanced 4231..

The opposition instructions..
Let assistant do your OI's.

The training..
Pre-season training is 'very high - tactic' and no rest. In-season set 'defensive positioning' before hard games.

An example of give the tactic some time. I plugged it in before the Bayern match (not a good moment, I know) and the tactic was far from fluid. Since the drews some matches later, we just won almost every game!

Prediction 4th.

******************

I know I got another thread for 433 tactics, but this one is just slightly tweaked from the 4231 above. In my three tactic slots I have the 4231 PRESS, HOLD and the 433 below. If this 433 is better than the ones from the old thread? I don't know, could be. Every club has other players who react different on tactics. Try yourself!

Please, people..
Don't ask me if other instructions will work. Have a test with it and see if it improves the tactic. A tactic is never done and can always be improved. Let me know if you have some great tweaks for the tactic!

What team have you tested it with? I have played around with a 4231 but not been able to crack it

It was a struggle, but hopefully this is something good. I tested it with Paris FC and QPR. Just a half season with both, no full season.
 
Looks like tailor-made for Arsenal, I will start a new save with this
 
the rar file doesnt seem to work for me? says the file is 0 bytes?
 
Gunna try this with my Swindon save and tell you how it goes for the rest of the season
 
I am trying to fix it, but I have also problems with saving tactics since the update. SI! :@


I´m Having trouble to load tactics, i´m using Version 1 - 3 Strikers, but since i´m playing with Ajax I want to use the v25 and it´s imposible to load! Will test this one as soon as is fix this trouble. So far 5 played, 5 wins, 18 goals scored and received 1.
 
About to test your new tactic with QPR in the first season, will report back with results in a few hours.

unable to import Tactics to the game. is it me or other also facing the same problem?
 
I only get the Press and the Hold tactic.
Can't find the drop version.

For drop version Check opening Post.
"go to team instructions and select 'drop deeper' and deselect 'offside trap'."
 
Testing with Chorley, Vanarama Conference North. Switched to tactic mid season, my own tactic had the same shape so my team is quite familiar with that. Although not 100% used to the pass/press/tempo style of play.
My own tactic worked very well but i was not creating much chances, so I'll have a go with this ans see if its any better.

First four matches has been encouraging, 3 wins and 1 draw creating more ccs and still solid at the back. Not sure if testing with lower league team will say much about the tactic, players making horrible mistakes that you just cant't blame on the tactic.
