Hey Jp , im a big fan of youre tactics and i always enjoy them primarily since you use the wizard and i find dropping players into the positions on the tactics screen i can see at a glance what attributes they need and can easily create a search filter to find a new player if needed when i try a clasic tactic i strugle since i find i cant see as well without going into each player individualy and for me this isnt as easy.
Thought id give this a go with my save since my strikers cant seem to hit a white wale on a black background, i was using a variation of 4,1,2,1,2 by youre good self and mr hough but i didnt have the strikers to make it work so i changed a few roles a slight bit , this however didnt work out so well, then i tried youre germany style wide players ( i love winger tactics but they seem to be undone very easily by the AI), so i though what the **** il try this one out
First game into the trial and i play 2nd place arsenal now my team is decent ive been lucky with transfers and did some research into who i could get "before they became famous"(except vidic as man utd seem to sell anyone to get cash on my games, even roony but i though 99 mill was a bit much to pay for mr potatoe head even if i had that much) as it were, on my middlesboro save there is no chance to get players like hamsik as chealski have already snapped him up .
My first season i played as england manager and use youre germany tactic to big effect , winning the world cup as it happens
, so then i decided i wanted to manage a club rather than wait for a job i just put a dummy manager in villa then retired him (bit of a cheat i no but i wanted to try villa ) now i have no idea about villa in the real world but ingame they seem to have had a new chairman who literly throws cash at me every transfer window (anyone else had this happen to a not so rich team?) i also gave myself a decent rep (**** game is hard enough to sign players i find without being a nobody and i dont realy got much time to play all that heavily)
Will keep posting and update on this tactics trial with my team , keep it up and lets hope fm11 gives a viable wide player tactic option
Imo great tactic

Just an update things going well still had a few injury problems so had to play my strikers for the future upfront , got some decent regens so its all gravy
Table after 24 played
And a few nicer results (not so nice beating boro 7-0 ,well it was but inside i cried a little
)
All in all its going pretty well my form in europe was a bit iffy to begin with but soon picked up ive made a few slight changes to the attacking roles not sure what you will make of them JP but i put my centre striker to a target man support and the AMC to a free role Trequistra i have dzeko to play target man and hamsik for the free role , not sure if the target man will get any supply with this , still trialing it , what do you think JP? would the other players roles support a target man to feed the 2 poachers ? if so would it be worth making him primary target man in the team instructions?
Many thanks
PS- My defenders realy seemt o destroy teams with "midgets" on set pieces especialy vidic who has 9 goals scored i think so far for me

Well i hope JP doesnt mind but for my son i made some search filters for the player roles so i thought i would share them basicly it just takes the basic attributes needed for those players to play in the postitions nothing fancy and probebly a lot of people already did it anyway for themselves but if youre lazy
like my nipper .
I left the default stat at "is at least 13" now you can adjust this easily enough to search for more or less and also i always use "ask assitant to filter out unrealistic targets" but i also left this unticked for those who like it ,please check them before using them to make sure i didint set poachers to need long shots or something silly (running on 3 hours sleep atm
) if i did its easy to fix

Just scan it (as always for files from net
) unpack and place in the usual folder /documents sports int/fm2010/filters and then just import them into youre search filters
Hope they are usefull to at least somebody.
