Good tactics or tips for first time Championship division team? (Nottingham forest)

[chrisgreg]

Never played a team that wasn't in the premier league, reckon i'd try it out, I would of prefered someone with more money but I quite like the idea of taking Nottingham Forest to winning the champions league lol.

But then again i'm gonna need some tips or tactics to use.

I have a set piece tactic that works great, so i'm using that, is there anything I should do just because i'm not a team filled with talent?

I normally manage Arsenal and bring in quite a few players..

if your usual formation works and you how to get the best out your players I would stick with it...alternatively you could look around for other tactics available

Well Id reccommend spending little and bring in loans.If you get promoted and have a healthy balance you can get upwards of £30m as a promoted side or at least its been that way in my experience.
In my first season at West Ham I bought Joe Mattock(altho you may have to loan him)
Grant Hanley on loan to pair with Tomkins.Hanley is a fantastic player that can do it on any level and even tho his stats may not show it he has done it for me.
Macheda is a beast on loan.Welbeck would be good if you can get him on loan.
Jay Rodriguez is another fantastic player altho is very expensive.
If you need a keeper Kevin Stuhr Ellegaard on a free is quite good.

No disrespect to any other tactics around ofc, but in my opinion, this is this years formation to have, have personally tryed and tested it with a team in each of the english leagues down to League 2. Read its reviews and give it a test if need/desire.

Goodluck with Forest (H)

I agree with the posts above. Just make à SWOT of your team and play to your strenths and adjust the tactic to your weaknesses ( like playing deeper if having really slow defenders)
