Hello guys,
I am here again with another golden tactic. Tested with wolves. I went 11 games in the EPL unbeaten before losing to Man Utd (very unlucky loss as you'd see in the SS). I am still challenging for the title (1 point above man city) after 18 games.
Tactic
it is a balanced 4-1-4-1. the idea was to have a 3-2-4-1 (2-3-4-1) in possession depending on how the right IWB positions himself. So:
- 1 Sweeper Keeper on defence
- 1 BPD + 1 CD both on defend duty
- 1 IWB on the right on defend duty. He gives us the 3-man shape at the back or tucks in to help ball retention
-1 CWB on the left on attack duty. He is responsible to provide width on that side
- 1 DLP on defend duty, the play starter
-1 carrilero. I use this role because if I want my CWB to provide width high up the field I need someone who can cover up if needed.
- 1 mezzala on attack duty to exploit the half spaces
- 1 winger on support duty. I believe that for the mezzala to really work he needs spaces. So the winger, by staying wider and holding his position create that space that the mezzala can exploit. the winger provides the width on the right hand side
- 1 IF on support duty. I want him to exploit the halfspaces so he is asked to sit narrower leaving lots of spaces for the CWB
- 1 CF on attack duty.
So it is an assymetric 3-2-4-1 in possession and a 4-1-4-1 out of possession.
training
I leave to my assistant
OI (see SS)
-pressing intensity: always for all fullbacks, wingbacks, CDMs, CMs, WMs, AMs, STs
-show onto weaker foot: all fullbacks, wingbacks, CMs, WMs, AMs, STs
Players
Traoré (my winger) is a beast. very good dribbler so most of my attacks come from him. So put some someone who can really dribble, run and cross.
When you need to protect my lead , I always change time wasting to frequently.
Do not hesitate to switch to a positive mentality if needed
