CONQUEROR !

I cannot change « cut inside with ball » to « run wide wide with ball » in « players instructions » when I want to click the one or the other one anything crosses as if it was locked, as if to make ?
 
Been trying this with a few tweaks as I didn't like how with 2 DLF's they stand around not really penetrating, and so I changed the left forward to a AF. Next thing I noticed was that the right forward was being pulled too high with the 'tight marking' instruction and so unticked that and also ticked 'hold position'. This tends to make him drop into the hole while the AF pushed the line a little more. Surprisingly, the two still link up quite well. The right forward I also reduce his closing down so he marks his player more often instead of closing down a defender and opening an easy pass - this usually results in the opposition playing long balls.

I've also unticked 'tight marking' on the DM and taken his closing down a tad as I found it took him out of position too much.

I've also tried changing the CM to automatic and ticked 'hold position' which seems to instruct him to hang at the edge of the oppositions box, which I prefer.

I'm not saying these make the tactic better but it does seem to make it more potent.
 
Got my second season startet with Lincoln, so far, so good - first 3 matches won, scored 9 goals conceded 0 with V5

Hey,

Just ignore this "duplication" because it doesn't make any actual impact on the searching result.



It was made on purpose in order to not limit your choice for MR position only to left footed players because good left footed players are rare and they cost some extra so not everyone can afford them so you also can use right footed players at MR position but don’t forget in this case to tweak their PIs as recommended at the OP.




"This problem" has been covered many times already in this thread so you can search for it.

thanks a lot. just one more question. should i add "can play attacking midfielder left"?

For LM the filter has "or can play attacking midfielder right" but for rm it does not have "or can play attacking midfieder left"?
 
I think this is my this year record, 12 CCC in one match -play off for Champions league !!!

GO GO PARTIZAN :)
 
Thanks a lot for your tactics TFF, I've just got a couple of questions if that's okay. Do you place your predominantly left-footed player in the STCR slot and vice versa? I just noticed that in the formation screenshots Bale (left-footed) is playing in the STCR slot and Benzema (right-footed) in the STCL and the same for Suarez/Messi, is this just coincidence or intended? My other questions is whether you place your best striker on a particular side, as in do either the STCR or STCL get more chances?

he's always said it makes a slight improvement to put left footed on STCR and right footed on STCL but it's not major.

he's also said the chances are shared, he's never seen in testing one of the sides always coming out on top

i'll tell you one thing i have noticed though, but not sure if it's 100% accurate (only play on key highlights)

the STCR due to the man marking seems to initiate moves/play passes deeper than the STCL does a lot of the time when there's transitions after you win the ball back
 
guys I have one general question. I'm playing the premier league and of course there are a lot of matches to be played including the cups. So in some cup matches I have to start with players completely different than my regular 11 especially if the opponent is weaker.

So the next game there is a league game and of course I switch back to my regular 11, changing minimum 6-7 players. Do you think it damages the team? Is it better to not change at all and risk injuries? Or it does absolutely no evil and it's necessary to play weaker players even though you change more than half of the team? Waiting for your opinions.

If your team participates in many competitions during the season and you want to win all these competitions then you must have 2 equally good starting elevens to achieve that and if you don't have 2 equally good starting elevens then you must choose what competitions to give priority and what competitions to sacrifice otherwise you are risking to fail in all competitions and here's why...

Every time when your player plays in match he gets his hidden attributes "Jadedness" increased and it can stack. The more matches the players plays in the season the higher "Jadedness" he has at the end of the season.

The major thing about "Jadedness" is that it responsible for how fast your players burn their "Conditions" during the match, for example, near the end of season before the match you see that all your players in the starting eleven have 95% Conditions and the opposition players also have 95% Conditions so you see it and thinks that the opposition doesn't have any advantage above you in that area but it might be wrong because all your players might have very high level of "Jadedness"(which you can't see because it's hidden) about 300-400 and the opposition players might have very low level of "Jadedness" about 50 so after 1st half the condition of your players will drop to 60% and they will be just walking on the pitch and the conditions of the opposition will drop only slight to 85% so they still will be fresh and smash your team in the 2nd half.

So as you can if you team has 22+ players that equally good and your opponents have only 11+ good players then at the end of the season you will be having advantages above your opponents because of it.

hey tff, again great work mate. i am playing as barca, and i am thinking to buy pogba or hazard, or maybe a defender, lol i dont like barca defense. so if u had money would you go for pogba or hazard?> thanks mate
 
Hey TTF , just one question... why do u tell us to train our wingbacks , as complete wing back ? and our centre backs as Ball Playing Deff ? In the tactic they are Central Deff's , not Ball playing. And the backs are Full backs not Wing backs, also Wide Midf you told us to train them as IF or Winger ? Why ? For WM you need tackling as far as i know. And The Cm you told us to train as ADv Playmaker , can you explain why is all that , thanks for the amazing work :)

I'd go for Hazard because Barca already has a lot of good players for MC position but lacks of good players for ML/MR positions.

Also ML/MR positions are the most important positions in the tactic and the tactic's performance scales greatly with quality of players at these positions, of course, the strikers and full backs are also important positions. ;)

Another good think about Hazard is that he can cover both positions ML and MR.

thanks for the post. so let's say I have a league game and I play with my regular 11. Next game I have a cup game that I do not care about so I change the 11 completely with my second 11. The third game is the league game so I switch back to my regular 11. Does changing the team too much have any bad effects?
