Hey,

If you got a proper striker then he scores about 55% of all your goals in this tactic.





Mate, "jumping" between the regular and the mirror versions of the tactic isn't an option at all and I'd say it's total pain in *** because for every version you need suited player for MR/ML; DL/DR and STC positions and you need not just 1 player but at lest 2 players for the positions... so I suggest that you choose one version and build your team around it and obviously it should be the regular version because it’s much easier to find a good right footed players for DR/ML/STC/MCR position then a good left footed because a good left footed players are rare.

You are that saying that you have Gibbs for DL position and Bellerin for DR position but it also important to know who is the 2nd players at these positions because you should substitute your CWB every match at 65 min so the 2nd player usually plays almost 1/3 of every match so he is also very important.

Also, if you are going to use the mirror version you should have 2 players for MR position… who are they?

As you can see it's a pain in *** "jumping" between the versions so I suggest sticking with the regular one and build your team around it.

Btw, to get an absolute domination in this is only possible when you have 2 equally strong starting eleven because when you can rotate your team heavily without sacrificing the then you get additional advantage over your opponents because if before match the average "Conditions" of players "4-5%" higher than your opponent’s average "Conditions" then in this case you have a very solid advantages over your opponent.

i have carvajal as a back up for bellerin, and i have jorge as a back for gibbs, i am trying to buy mario fernades , i have back up for all the position. would the amc be better if he will be strong on both foots?
i am want to sign james rodriguez, but he is only strong on the left foot, ist matter at all? btw, mate harry kane has agee to my ofer, and i also have morta who will come on janury

Guys, I've add this requirement to the OP

MCR should be right footed.

i have carvajal as a back up for bellerin, and i have jorge as a back for gibbs

Ok, then who will be your 2 for MR position in the mirror version?

would the amc be better if he will be strong on both foots?
i am want to sign james rodriguez, but he is only strong on the left foot, ist matter at all?

Yes, mate... it matters.

ML/AMC/STC/MCL/MCR positions should have at least "Reasonable" rating for the weak foot.

BUT you can try to imporve James Rodriguez's weak foot and there's a good chance to do that becasue if a player has "Very Weak" or "Weak" rating for the weak foot then I'd say there's about 80-90% chance that he manages to learn "Attempt To Develop Weak Foot" PPM and his weak improves to "Reasonable"

Btw, I see that there's only about 5% chance to improve the weak foot rating from "Reasonable" to "Fairly Strong"/"Strong" but as I said from "Very Weak"/"Weak" to "Reasonable" the chance is huge about 80-90%

Please notice that his weak foot training might take 5-7 months and during that time he might play not so good, also, there's still some chance that he fails to learn it.

haha i have nyemar and griezman, btw would u say that coutinho will be a better choice then james, cuz he got fairly stong and very strong foot. mate thanks alot for all of your eforts.

Does this work with Classic
mode?

mode?

If you are talking about FM Touch mode then why not?

FM Touch mode has the same ME as the Full Mode game.

But if you are going to play with "Instant Result" then I suggest that you read the OP and browse through this thread to find out what "underwater reefs" it might have.

Yes, Philippe Coutinho would be better than James Rodrigez.

But if you get Philippe Coutinho then try to "unlearn" his "Shoots From Distance" PPM, of course, do that at last priority because as you know the chance to "unlearn" any PPM is always very small so it might requires many attempts and there's no guaranty that you ever succeed.

hey mate its on passing training

Guys, I've updated the screenshots of TIs/ PIs to suite V7 for Tablet FM users, they were greatly outdated.

It can be found at the bottom of the OP under a spoiler.

This PPM is only available to players that have "Natural" rating for MC position

Hey mate, in what position would you reccommend Griezmann? Would you reccommend Felipe Anderson as LMF?

Hey mate,

Griezmann can be used at ML/AMC/MR positions. He's got these ratings for the positions: ML = 15, AMC = 17, MR = 9. So you if you are planning to use him at any of these positions then it makes sense to train him and improve his rating for the positions until at least "17" rating.

Filipe Anderson can be used at ML and AMC positions. He's got these ratings for the positions: ML = 12, AMC = 16. So you if you are planning to use him at any of these positions then it makes sense to train him and improve his rating for the positions until at least "17" rating.


EDIT: I made a typo, of course, Filipe Anderson can be used at ML and AMC positions.

Guys, I've updated the recommend attributes of CWB at the OP(the filters have stayed the same).​

Also, I want to give few tips about this position because I find that this position is the most important position in the tactic.

This position makes about 33% of all "Assists" in the tactic so you see how important this position is.

The better attacking attributes of your CWB, the more goals you score.

So for this position you need a typical Winger that also somehow competent in defensive play.

Here are some examples of the perfect player for this position:

As you can see all these players have some important attacking attributes such as "Crossing", "Dribbling", "Technique" and some other at "14 - 15" range which I find is optimal range for this position because it can’t have it at "16 - 17' range due the fact that it also need somehow contribute at the defense and the defensive attributes should be at reasonable level.













There are many other players for CWB position that are "almost" perfect for this position but some of their important attacking attributes are only at "12 - 13" range which is a bit low. I'm talking about players like these:

As you can some of their important attacking attributes are only at "12 - 13" range and if you've got such player here what you can do… set "Positional/Role Training" to "Complete Wing Back" and use "Additional Training" focus for "pin point" improvement of some important attacking attributes such as "Crossing", "Dribbling", "Technique" and try to bring these attributes at 14-15 level.

TFF, I guess that someone like Davide Santon or Bruno Peres would work too?

 

[curry30]

you've changed the central defender role from gladiator v1 to gladiator v 7

the individual training focus still the same or do i have to change? to central ball playing.

 

[TotalFootballFan9]

you've changed the central defender role from gladiator v1 to gladiator v 7

the individual training focus still the same or do i have to change? to central ball playing.

My decision what individual training focus to use for my central defenders depends on their attributes if I see that my central defender has Technique, Passing, First Touch, Composure, Decisions at "11-12" range then I use "Central Defender" Individual Training Focus for him because I find that "11-12" level for these attributes is optimal and I don't want invest further his CA into these attributes and I would better invest his CA into the defensive attributes but If I see that these attributes at "9-10" level or even lower then I use “Ball Playing Central Defender” Individual Training Focus to try to rise these attributes at "11-12" level

Also, If I see that my central defender only lacks Technique attribute(it's less than "11") and other attributes such Passing, First Touch, Composure, Decisions are at the optimal level(11-12) then in this case I probably would use "Central Defender" Individual Training Focus + Additional Training Focus "Technique".

Heh but almost all my central defenders train to play MC position with "Ball Winning Midfielder" Individual Training Focus + "Jumping Reach" Additional Training Focus to create additional backup for Central Midfielder (Defend) position in case if all my players for this position are unavailable and vice versa almost all my players for Central Midfielder (Defend) position train to play CD position with "Ball Playing Central Defender" Individual Training Focus to create additional backup in case if all my central defenders are unavailable. All it comes very handy because in this tactic Central Defender position and Central Midfielder (Defend ) position require very similar attributes.

TFF, I guess that someone like Davide Santon or Bruno Peres would work too?

Yes, they also would work but as I said you should try to improve their Crossing, Dribbling and Technique to "14-15" level through "Additional Training Focus".

[Hector89]

Mario Fernandes is a killer at RB. He assists for fun and usually has a hat-trick of assists in most of the matches. Highly recommend player as he is usually available for 10mp. The only trouble I have is with CM(D). Would have thought that Schneiderlin and Carrick would be perfect for this position. But they max out on 6.5 every match. Not a problem result wise, but I'm afraid it will have a demoralising effect on them Any suggestions, people?

 

[Hector89]

Here are stats of my players that I rotated on CM (D) position at the end of the 3rd season with Newcastle.

I bought Marcelo Meli from Boca for 6M $ at the begging of the 1st season and as you can see at the screenshot below his price is 35M $ now.

I bought Jordan Cousins from Charlton for 11M $ at the beginning of the 3rd season and now his price is 15M $.

Their average ratings are 7.05 at the end of the season.

Guess I will give it some more time then.

Guys, I've updated the filters and the recommended attributes at the OP.

I slightly tweaked the attributes for MC/DR/STC/AMC/ML positions.​

 

[TotalFootballFan9]

TFF who is the more advance attacking midfielder the BBM or the CM-S and also who does the more defensive work out of the both, i was thinking the bbm but im not sure.

Both BBM and CM (S) do the similar job in the defense and it requires that they both contribute to the defense at the same rate but due to the way how this tactic works CM (S) covers bigger distance during matches and he always have less Condition left at the end of matches.

During attacks BBM takes more advance position than CM (S) and BBM can be seen more often in opposition box than CM (S) so BBM have more scoring chances than CM (S) during matches.

Hey man, thanks as always.

I've noticed there is a single attribute you seem to not rate at all : balance. Could you elaborate on that ?

Sorry if you've answered that before.

Hey mate,

It's because I don't see that this attribute has crucial important for any position.

I'd say If a player has it then good if he has not then it isn't tragic at all.


Here's how "Balance" attribute works in the ME:

1) When a player with the ball then "Balance" helps dodge tackles.

2) When a player without the ball then "Balance" help to stay on feet after a player produces a tackle or turns.


For example, if a winger is fast enough and has good dribbling and high flair then with such good attributes he just won’t allow opposition defenders to tackle him so in this case "Balance" attribute is useless for him.

Of course, even the best winger still will tackled time to time and when it happens "Balance" will be useful but it would be also fair to say that sometimes wingers have air challenges and when it happens "Jumping Reach" attribute would be useful for them but I won't add "Jumping Reach" attribute as recommended attribute for wingers.

i wonder that CR7 is better in DLF or LWM
