As some of you will remember, i used to create fast paced counter attacking tactics, which require certain types of players, mainly focused on acceleration and pace.
I've now tweaked the last tactic i created a few months back, and come up with this....
it's a 4-1-5 (my usual formation), where you'll have low % of possession but counter quickly with direct passes into the final third and over the top of the oppositions back line.
You'll also create a lot of clear cut chances, so with the correct front 3 and good wingers, you will score plenty of goals.
Attached is some screen shots of a Newcastle save i used to run tests on the tactic.

I holidayed for the whole season after making a few signings and adding my own training in pre season and let the game decide the fate.​

Tactics in Possesion.webp

few tips in advance -
-GK and back 4 not a major focus but try and play the best players in their role.
-DM needs to be solid, he's the heart of everything, good strong tackler, vision and passing is needed.
-Wingers need acceleration and pace and also good vision, aim for 15+
-front 3 need pace and good finishing.

-Players will tire as the season goes on so select the best training methods (which I'll add images of in this thread).

- Put all players on individual training focus - Quickness... except for GK's which have GK Sweeping as focus.

TRAINING EACH WEEK EVERY WEEK.webp

Give this tactic at least 4/5 games before judging so the players can get used to the changes in their roles and the tactic familiarity.​

I will be doing full holidayed season tests with Man City and Bayern to give people an idea of how good the tactic is with top sides and then also doing some tests with mid table clubs.
Let me know if you give this a spin and how you get on (y)
