EL VOLCANO 3-4-1-2 | Tactical Eruption

[Babemocni1988]

As I promised my friend @koronis that I will check Millwall by myself so this morning I decided to build a team around and start this new challenge
Probably I will finish season in Premiership and leave a game save here for those Millwall fan's who struggle.

I forgot the Premier League rule that you can only play 5 loan players per match
That made recruitment a bit tricky because its cheaper and easier to bring quality on loan. Still, managed to put together a competitive squad,I will do the same in January tranfer window,always looking to improve the team.

Results so far (15 games played):
13 wins
1 draw
1 loss

Top of the league.

The only defeat was a very strange home game against Wrexham, who actually dominated me with a 3-4-2-1 system. The two AMCs caused all kinds of problems and, fair play, they deserved it.

But as always — when I lose, I study the game.
I realised that against systems with 2 AMCs, I need more protection centrally, especially in the DM area. So I created a new version with two DMs, called “Fortress” .

I already tested it against Preston, who play in a similar way — and I completely dominated that match.
I’ll introduce Fortress soon as an alternative version specifically for teams like Wrexham,or having an option when oposition dominate in those area behind our 2 CM.

As for IL Volcano — it still works like a charm. No changes needed there.

And yes, before someone asks
The game is saved only twice.
I’ll leave screenshots of that too, because apparently for some people that’s the most important tactical instruction...

More updates soon

Well done that's top class results so far,wish you good luck until the end.
I am asking could you do the same for me with Burnley as I struggle to get CL football with them.
At least to prepare the season,doing the transfers for me, because somehow I always pick wrong players and I don't have so much of experience.
I would apriciate it.

I will do it, no worries
Just give me a bit of time. I want to properly finish the Millwall save first, then I can fully focus on preparing Burnley for season 1.

Being a father of a newborn doesn’t really help my FM schedule My FM satisfaction is limited to a few hours per day at best. I still love the game, but real life sometimes presses very high intensity

I’ll get to Burnley as soon as I can and do it properly, not rushed.

Yes much more direct passing I found deadly on this ME

Agreed! It’s also promoting that get it up to the forwards asap with killer through balls that I’ve desperately missed since the fm12-fm14 days.

I'm glad you tested the tactics with mllwall, otherwise I've been playing FM for years and it's not a big club to be taken, they have players personnel everything. Millwall is limited and that's why it's a challenge to start with a smaller club and make a result. And I think that the additional weight is that I put the profile of the manager at the lowest descriptive grades. A team that develops tactics is always a test with Liverpool, PSG, Bayern, Man City. Give me a smaller club and let's see how it goes.
Only Millwall.
ON ONE LIKES US

Yes mate that was the goal,plus I also sometimes swich to whipped crosses during the game to confuse AI and often works.You get that killer pass 1vs1 situation.

I can smell a proper Millwall fan here
I like challenge and this one It will be, but still in my opinion after you get promotion its easy in PL because you get money and possibility to build a proper team to fight for the trophies
