Right, I want to make a truly awesome tactic. But I feel to do this I need a **** of alot of Ideas. I also realised there is a **** of alot of FMbase users.

I want it to be a flat 4-3-3 (My Fave Formation) that has the ability to crush any team. So I need ideas/ things you've found to be successful in your tactics and I'll try and integrate them into one UBER tactic.

Im using Classic as I feel you can create better tactics using it ^.^

Ive already included:
-Retsinabb69's Xavi Role as its the best playmaker set up I've used
-Kanderrsons Idea for the staggered midfield.

NEEDED.
Defensive Ideas.
Sweeper Keeper or Standard.
D-line?
Mentality?
Width?


Include things like:
-How Your team scores it's goals
-How You set up your set pieces
-How Your defence is set up to be unbeatable
-Where your team opens space up
-How you exploit that space

BE DETAILED. Spammers will be shot.


ILL BE DOING THIS ONCE I'VE BEEN GIVEN LOADS OF IDEAS.
Working on another Tac atm so be patient.

My front 3 in a flat one is usually


TQ----Target Man------Poacher
 
Well they all seem to work together all of them chipping in for goals and i use them because we have someone to win the balls in the air and flick it on, Someone to create the chances and someone to try and beat the offside trap.
 
thats better, and thanks. may well use that as what you said makes sense. Though Ill drop the TQ for the modern forward
 
This is a good idea for trying to make a ultimate tactic.

for a flat midfield three could i suggest:

Ball winning midfielder (defend) - Advanced Playmaker (attack) - Box to Box midfielder (support)

this is just my suggestion but i think it works well as the ball winning midfielder is the most defensive and well, will win the ball ;) and get it forward to the more attacking players. The advanced playmaker is the main attacking outlet and will create attacks etc. while the B2B will be a bit of both :)
 
Hmmm....I prefer a 4-2-3-1 with the midfield 5 I have 2 players who sit in front of the defence one is set as a ball-winning mid set on defend and the other as a deep-lying playmaker set on support...one is an advanced playmaker who sits in the 'hole' behind my lone striker.

My strategy is 'control' with the retain possession shout. My passing style is set on short and also all my players passing is short aswell. The tempo is 2 clicks on 'slow'. This gives me an average 67% possession against top 5 teams and 70%+ against relegation candidates and mid table teams.

Atleast 4 CCCs a match aswell.

I can also give you details on how I set up my defence, 2 wingers and lone striker but I doubt you'll be fusses since your playing 433

Hope that helped though :)

How ?
 
i use that formation and my mid striker is a complete forward attack, the left and right one are poachers but with the instructions of advance forwards and wide play cut inside View attachment 164029

Sounds like a fun project.

One hint on the road though. While betatesting the tactic, bear in mind the huge impact that the ppms has on the players. One user may get great results with the player acting like a TQ whilst the other fails. Even if having the same player in that role, the results might be hugely different if one if the supporting players in the transition phase has a conflicting ppms, making the flow of the game totally different. My point is that one should not jump to conslusions too son.
 
Isn't having 3 forwards a little too much? Maybe the tactic should have only 2.
 
With a flat 433, I think you should use supporting wingbacks that hug touchline and provide width on either side. They should cross often and from deep, this would get the ball in box towards your three strikers too.

4-3-3 is easily the best tactic if used properly. 3 strikers for goals, 3 Cm's for control in the middle, the flat back 4 for the defence, wingbacks for width. Its devastating.
 
Still, some clubs have a lot of midlfielders(Barca,Real Madrid, Arsenal etc) that have to be in the starting 11 but they don't have that much forwards that need to be in the starting 11
 
I like the "most central" CM having lower mentality and no run from deep so that he operates almost like an anchor man, and playing short simple passes as he initiates the offense.

Also, all the CMs should have good workrate, tackling and aggression as all three need to work hard in the midfield to support a 3 strikers formation.

In my experience this is a key for a succesful flat 4-3-3

Yeah, this is definately true.
I like a staggered midfield with the CM deepest, The Lcm Supporting and the Rcm in a more offensive role. It covers more of the field and can be really really hard for teams to deal with.

can you please put a link to the tactic or the role you had given to xavi ..
i would love to give it a try to see the effect as he is in my current game not doing great on play making .
 
i have read it mate and i know that you are still working on it ..
but i wanted the tactic with xavi's best role as playmaker ..
and you have given me what i want :)
thank you and wish you all the best .
 
For defense may i suggest a high defensive line with two limited defenders and two full backs (attack), i say this as it has worked for me in the past and most defenders are actually better as limited defender also A normal keeper is usually better, and definately a narrow pitch and width i would say if we're playing 3 central midfielders? :)
