IMPORTANT 1: Tactic has preset OI(Opposition Instructions) built into it so make sure you don't ask your Assistant Manager to set OI for you.


IMPORTANT 2: Tactic has preset manual marking(you don't need do anything it's already in tactic): your AMCL and AMCR manual mark opposition Full Backs and this is very important! Please notice that there's bug/glitch when opposition substitutes Full Backs then manual marking stops working and in order to fix you need go to tactic menu and push "Confirm Changes" button, it should be active... so you always should keep your eyes on substitute of opposition.

Also I tested this tactic in FMC mode with "Instant Results" and manual marking worked just fine even after substitute of Full Back so if you want you can use this tactic in FMC with "Instant Result". Only one sad thing FMC doesn't have OI.



IMPORTANT 3: DL should be left footed and DR should be right footed.


IMPORTANT 4: AMCL should be RIGHT footed and AMCR should be LEFT footed. Also it's very helpful if they have "Cuts Inside" PPM.


IMPORTANT 5: When you meet "3DCs" formation then go to tactic menu and remove manual marking from your AMCL/AMCR. It’s VERY important because if you don't do that then your defense will be play extremely poor so you always should keep your eyes on oposition formation.

Alos don't forget that AI can change tactic during the match so you always should track what formation opposition uses during the match.

Here's the screenshot where you can find manual marking. It's only available during the match(UNDER SPOILER).

*** BASE TACTIC ***

DOWNLOAD THE TACTIC - TFF_EPIC_V12.tac

*** OVERLOAD VERSION ***

DOWNLOAD THE TACTIC TFF_EPIC(OVERLOAD)_V3.tac


The only different from Base version is "Much Higher Defense Line". It adds extra pressure on opposition and you get back possession much faster but the same time your mistakes in defense could be very costly so use it wisely. I recommend use after 1st half if you are unhappy with result and think that you could take more risk but if you have any doubts I recommend keep using Base version. Also this version can be used when you start losing more than 1 goal because in this case you nothing to lose.








*** WASTE TIME VERSION ***

DOWNLOAD THE TACTIC TFF_EPIC(WASTE_TIME_5DEF)_V1.tac

Use this version when you need protect you lead and waste time but use it wisely because this isn't "magic" tactic which gives you guaranty that you don't concede... it simple reduces chances that you concede and if you start use it too early or when have shaky lead by 1 goal then it can backfire you.
















** FILTERS AND ATRIBUTES RECOMMENDATION **


DOWNLOAD THE FILTERS - TFF_EPIC_FILTERS_V3.pft


Few tips how to use filters(Under spoiler).
At first make sure you have good scouting knowledge for major football nations.

I would recommend you have full scouting knowledge for these nations: Spain, Portugal, England, Italy, Germany, France, Holland, Brazil.

In case you find it hard to find players through filters here's what you can do there's an option "easy match conditions" in filters menu and you can "easy" match conditions by 1 condition in most cases it will double pool of player you can chose from but always pay attention what parameter is missing and for how much. I would recommend have it no more than 1-2 points away.

This way you can also find young talents for your team.



Every attribute has range: minimal level(RED) and optimal level(GREEN). Players with "minimal" levels can be available for mid clubs such as Southampton, Granada, Hannover, Parma, FC Lorient and players with "optimal" levels can be available for top clubs such as Man Utd, Real Madrid, PSG, Juventus, FC Bayern so if you build top club then eventually you want that all your players have "optimal" levels for attributes.

Sorry guys. Redownload the tactic… I just noticed that I uploaded wrong version without proper duties for DCL/DCR positions, passing for DM.

TFF, if I play FMC, should I use "match plans" ?
No... It changes the tactic.
 
TFF i'm going to play with FCPorto, what do you think about players as josue and quintero to AMC?

Josue suites very well only if he were a bit faster and more agile but his technical and mental attributes are excellent. Also he is only Left footed so play him on AMCL or AMC position.

Quintero also looks beastie… :p He has perfect attributes. He is also Left footed so play him on AMCL or AMC position.

Also both have slightly low decisions only 12 but it would be perfect if they have 14-16.

TFF does this tactic work with 2 wide AP since i have a save that involves wingers and dont want start another one.Speaking about Josue :) i just got him in my third year at Poli(team from second romanian division promoted first year followed by title next year).In third year i even managed to reach Champions League Playoff but was hard got only 4 pts in a group with real schalke and CSKA.Got points from CSKA only and what is strange is that they won group,i really dont understand this ME anymore.Real Madrid is a beast of a formation with transfer updates, extremely difficult to beat.

I could play my next season like that... I doubt I can resist the money being thrown at me for Matic and Isco though. (United and Chelsea's highest bids for Isco are in the region of £40M) Matic is wanted by Juventus. I changed AMC to Trequartisa because it's just better for Ronaldo. I sold Modric to Chelsea for £30M (considering Pogba was so cheap it was a great deal)

EDIT: Bought Gotze for £30M but I may send him to Castilla or make him available for loan if I can get Ronaldo at least accomplished in the AMC role before the transfer window closes. (Gotze is like... his ultimate replacement!)

Not good defense for me.

Ajax - Volendam 1-1
Ajax - Dessel 3-2
Ajax - Bruge 2-2

I want to try one or two cwb to support
 
Hi TFF9, I don't seem to have the option (in FMC) to manually add mark a specific play. Can this only happen during the game? I've been conceding a lot of goals and wondered if this was the reason.

Manual marking is available only during the match.

I don't seem to have the option (in FMC) to manually [/ATTACH]

P.S. I see you use Agbonlahor as AMCR… dude, he is terrible suited for this position. :p
