The strikers - the most expensive option in many cases - but sometimes you can get them cheap like Maupay for 2.5m pounds in the beginning of the game due to his age is a good example of cheap coming striker star. An established star will cost you alot in many cases, but if you unsettle them they become alot cheaper. The strikers and the central defenders I find very important, the wingers are also pretty important, but you can live with a player like portugals Bruma or Nani in the other side, they are by no means stars, but they can do the job you are asking for - Someone like Neymar is a star and can be retrained to play ML. Bale is obviously probably a superstar compared to other ML's - Their are also different types of wingers - someone like Koke is a great allround choice and can play in the MR position, but I would still prefer a through and through winger who dribble the pants of my grandma - if she was alive :) - so what the wing training schedule ask for is needed, after that what the complete forward schedule provide you finishing creativity technique - then you will get a complete winger and how they should look - a really good example when developed is James Rodriguez he's perfection though left footed he plays well as a MR.

Wow thanks for the in depth reply that's exactly what i needed to know!

what do you think my regens im hoping there development increases now they play alot of first team games

Faulkner not good enough - meaning I would like him to have atleast 17 jumping - atleast=minimum when fully developed - the reason why I doubt he will reach that is his height, I'm not sure if he will reach that, and then ofcause he needs all the mental stats, but I'm not sure if he can reach 17 jumpiong due to his height.

Bilinha - I like the look of him and I would maybe even switch training schedule to complete forward now.

Anic - train complete forward till the end of his career lol - he looks very promising too.

Stranzl - switch to complete forward - Now its urgent!!!! or get another one - finishing is imperitive for the midfielders - so is workrate so is teamwork and so is strenght - and stamina important for anyone, but since his finishing and creativity is so low you need to change to complete forward now - he's very young so can develop lots - 1st team for man.u I don't think so - if you do use their though then use him as a sub. Get his finishing to say atleast 13 then go back to box to box schedule.

If you possess any players that you count as stars from midfield and up then give them CF=20 to unfold their full potential

Your results are awesome for the Premier league

Cheers
 
Ok thanks again for the advice! Will get them on CF training, as for faulkner ill develop him a bit more and try sell him.

i don't have any brilliant midfielders sandro would probably be my best so ill look into buying some new first teamers, fletcher and carrick are on the decline also so may need a whole new set!

yea fletcher carrick rooney not good enough=sell now :)

CF=creative freedom - don't mix that up with complete forward schedule :)
So above when I referred to CF=20 then that means changing the player instructions for creative freedom to 20 if you have a real special star in your team. I see why that this could maybe be confusing since we talked about the complete forward schedule alot.

I like to repeat myself so I often say the same things over and over again as that would help myself if someone kept reminding me of the different things in any subject lol

Cheers pal

Faulkner loan him out for 1st team football - as good a club as possible - do it every season - the higher the league he performs well in the better.
 
Update on Cartagena with 4-4-2 tactic. Is doing very well and looking better visually. I did release and sell about 20 players and brought in around 18 so team gel for the most part was blending well to good understanding. Is at strong understanding at half way stage. I am challenging for CL qualification which I believe to be amazing as players are still not great. Also in Copa Del Ray S/Final against Athletic, so chance of a cup final too. SS of league table.

In regards Faulkner I would loan him out to a feeder club, Antwerp would be good if you still have them as he will get games in for them. Then see how his potential has gone when he comes back. For me he should become a good back up. However, time will tell.

wow man this is great - I can see several things happening here - your team gel will keep improving and team gel will raise further to the top of where it needs to be, and you will maybe start getting more wins than expected and suddenly you are neck and neck with RMA if they mess up - they are kind of good the first 5 seasons, but results are amazing - I'm not sure its a good idea to change the CF, though I'm still doing that for a little due to extremely good players, but need a bit more experience with it to judge it, I'm still winning so record is accumulating.

I recommend trying to overprice when selling your players, not just 200% but maybe 5000% seriously sometimes you get lucky, in danish league where if a player is valued 1m pounds you can actually go out and get 46.5m pounds if teams are showing interest.

It seems to me maybe you can succeed with average players - is that your thought to? - I mean players that are quite a bit away from being anything, like a talented 17 year old - just a thought. Get as good strikers as you can I just found some insane players that I ofcause can't use because I have world class players, but very cheap Czek rep and south korean strikers I should try and take a picture of them - I signed them for no good reason except its fun to own 300 players - actually long term loans can be very profitable especially if they become succesful :) for a future sale.

Looking forward to hear more mate

cheers
 
You can succeed with average players as that is what I really have at the moment. You also have to be patient as you will lose matches. Some of these you will feel you should have won. I got in a loan striker from AC Milan who is only 18 years old and have been playing him more because of injuries to my more seasoned strikers. He is scoring at a goal a game. I was given 8M in Jan, so put it all into wage budget and searched out of contract players.

Have bids in for Sandro, Nielsen(LB/WB/ML/AML) and Bony, if I can get 1 or all 3 that will make my team better, next season.

I played RM a few games ago away and they won 2-1, but was 2 pens, though they did carve me open a lot.

Have a couple of young players who have potential and will perhaps get more games in than if I were at a bigger club, but this should help them improve faster.

The comment on the foreigners is a restriction, as I can only have 3 in the squad registered at the moment!

Will update later today.
 
Thought I would just show you a couple of players. 1 is the loan striker from AC Milan. The other is a CD who I have developed over the last 18 months into a wonderkid by playing him in more games than I generally would have done. I believe he is in the game at the start, but not sure!

Me just comeback to the 2nd Visit. I feel more confortable with this tactic than the Bwompers Original ( but it doesnt mean is a bad tactic,its a superb direct football tactic...maybe I can combine with the 2nd Visit in some games...when I lead the game by 2 or 3 goals change to the B.Original and kill the other team with direct counters lol )
 
130 wins and it came to an end in a stupid cup match vs valencia away - me playing around with CF is maybe also a bad idea. I have a feeling that Langvatn found that certain CF is perfect for some positions, but i'm not sure cause it does make perfect sense to give max cf to a genius.

Anyway i'm going back to what im comfortable with winning :) - no i actually am experimenting with CF for a striker genius to see if their is a certain level to look out for - still undefeated in the league for soon 3 years and get many above 10 goals wins, just beat worst team in the league 11-0 - so on course to maybe 200 goals, but only conceeded 3 in almost 19 matches 6 in 32.

I will today look into the 4141 rock classic and release it maybe untested - it will be changed to a direct style in hope to improve the attacking efficiency - that would be the coolest thing to improve this one.

Cheers
 
I would definitely love to test the 4141 jes, The Bwomper tribute is going great the play is pretty limiting though not much in the way of shots, so i had a quick test of your 442 and the players seemed like they were unleashed and more attacking so i may have to stick with it and see, Knowing it can work with lesser players too may help with my weaker side!

View attachment 220096

A look at my results shows its a real hard tactic to beat thats for sure

My only defeat was pretty unfair too...!

The new 442 direct attacking - is one of the best tactics out their - the 130 win run proves that + the amount of goals its capable of scoring - the international success I have had with England and Portugal - as I've said before this is only partially mine as it uses the defensive framework of Mr. Langvatn and my own direct framework attacking in combination - that becomes lethal. So I recommend to stick with it :)

About the 4141 I'm looking into it - I already created it, but don't know if I strayed away from what it should be, so I have to test it to see if I hit the nail. You know what to expect if I did. Superb defence and lots of goals - otherwise fail. Lets see what happens - the strayed away part is because I lowered the tempo to the middle, which is quite alot and I'm a bit worried about that setting, but that can be changed back as well :)

I'll let you know what happens

Cheers
 
View attachment 220089 Those are my results with Bwomper Original (outside the red lines with 2nd Visit with strikers looking for corner goals) Like you see pretty good results,very quick and direct play,electrical but in my own like I preffer 2nd Visit. Both tactics can combine I think

View attachment 220088 View attachment 220087 yeah not a great team but not always can win with a +10 score


View attachment 220085well...a great game I guess lol nice amount of clear and half chances...some shoots on goal with only one long shot.
View attachment 220084 lol I never see a player rating 0.2 !! His rating is in white also haha seems like less 1 of rating is that colour

cheers mates!

Inside the red line is the bwomper original? or outside?

I have never tested the bwomper original - never seen how it plays - but is the same setup in formation as a normal Frankenstein then a few tweaks here and their - the CAM one of them - much more offensive in his acts. then direct football from all players and backtracking strikers - maybe wrong - I got stuck on that?

The high scores is that 2nd visit?

Cheers - it will help me to understand a few things that's why all the questions
 
4141 direct attacking test - with width 10 in the premier league and with a team of set skills 200 in current ability across the board, no specialists - so when having specialists these results will double.

yeah inside is the Bwomper Original,outside 2nd Visit. The CAM act for me pretty similar (except the direct passes of course) in both tactics,scores almost often

So in your opinion if we should analyze this - the Frankenstein normal or 2nd visit strikers seems to perform more efficient?

What about the wingers do you see a better performance from then in 2nd visit or Bwomper original?

Any change that you can say this performs better like this?

Cheers

Is the direct passing worth it when you look at it compared to efficiency in 2nd visit?
