Yes that?s exactly what I thought, I got confused a little. Thanks :)
 
I keep getting caught out with a long ball over the top. Im dominating with 20+ shots and end up losing 2-0 and so on with a simple ball over the top. Any suggestions?
 
This looks brilliant. Do you still use the shut up shop version? Or do you just switch to counter if your trying to hold onto a lead?
 
im doing really well with liverpool on this tactic, scoring goals now etc...the only thing im finding is my IF is not performing...do you think i should drop him back to the regular IF position?

I've got a Liverpool save going aswell, and struggle to score and always seem to go a goal down, who are you playing as IF and AF?
 
where is the latest version of this tactic? is it the home tactic link?
 
The last tactic is top of opening post. It should be named, version 1.4 :-)

It all depends who you are playing on the L IF. Perhaps try sturridge as R If, the coutinho lw? The switch cm's around too for thr balance
 
I found that the corner (attacking) tactic needs to be addressed. I had three goals over night where the opposition cleared and countered immediately.

@Harris4Ips on your v1.4 tactic..are the set-pieces set-up correctly? I have corners/free kicks set to mixed. Is that correct?
 
Great tactic!
trying it with my Wolves team in the 2024/25 season (best team in the world ATM).
Do you use any OI or team talks??

Yeah that is the only trouble aint it :(

I tend to take away all the HARD tackling in Opposition Instructions.
I only leave the hard tackling in for big games.

If im getting alot of cards, then straight away il withdraw those hard tackles from OI too

So you use OI's ?? How do you set them?

if you are grtting countered too much. Maybe try setting one of the full backs to 'stay back' and leaving another 'stay back if needed'
im back to work this week so i cant try new things out as much as id like. If this helps let me know

Yes thats right. The only reason i left as mixed was because when i was watching all my replays, i noticed i was scoring near post AND far post headers

Opposition Instructions i select the Assisstant to choose. But if im getting yellow cards early on in the game, i tend to quickly take off all the hard tackling in OI. Ive noticed the other team are left rattled and end up getting alot of yellows.

i was letting the AM choose my team talks but then i realised he would often 'i have nothing to say, just go out there and play' or something like that. Which, when youre winning would confuse players and drop morale slightly.

Before i game i often just say, do it for the fans, then passionately 'have faith' in all the players.

if im winning and playing well, calmly say 'well done , keep it up'

if im winning and not playing well, cautiously 'we're playing well but we could do alot better'

something like that haha i cant remember top of my head

if i win i alwYs calmly say well done. If a player scores over 9 for rating i single out after team talk and passionately say 'very well done'

this will keep morale high and build relationships with your players.

ive seen somebody mention about players getting 'over confident' but i havnt really seen this hAppen yet
 
Amazing tactic. I've won all 15 games so far (as Liverpool) including 3-2 away to Bayern and an amazing 4 goal comeback after being 3-0 down at home to Arsenal.

It has taken a lot of the stress out of the game for me where I would be constantly fretting over Shout tweaks.

Only issue I have is the amount of cards I've received as a consequence of the change but I just change the Shout if I get an early yellow.

Scored a LOT of goals with these tactics.

My squad seems to suit the Home version no matter where and who the game is against.

Thanks for sharing!
 
Sorry to be a bit stupid but which is the current tactic 1.4 cos all all i see is home, away and shut up shop on the OP?
 
This tactic is working well for me. I am Harrogate, but my team is really good for it's division.

Most disappointing game was vs. a team 2 leagues below in the cup = drew 1-1, but had my 2nd string team starting, with a lot of youngsters.

The last game I played finished 1-1 too - but without a blinder from my keeper, we'd have lost. Encouraging that even when we don't play well, we are still picking up points.

Played about 8 games with this tac - Think i've won 6, drawn 2, lost 0 of these.

What is even more encouraging, we tend to average about 2.5 goals per game, but never concede more than one a game.
 
On the opening post at the very top. In larger font it say New and improved version 1.4 with the link just underneath
 
The only question I have is when do you usually differ away from "standard" mentality?

If they are on top - do you switch to counter?

When you are winning - Do you switch to counter?

When you are losing, do you switch to attacking?

etc, etc

If im losing, il only change to attacking, if commentary and match stats suggest im not on top.

Il only switch to counter when im winning if im 2-0 + and the other team are attacking me more!

just be careful as ive switched too early loads of times. The more you change it or dont change it youl learn when the right time is :-)
