Koflok's Goals Galore 2011

[kandersson]

Usually don't post but feel like giving some feedback this time...

first of all Koflok, great work! like your tactic, and the idea behind it

I used it for my unfashionable Toronto Fc in the unfashionable MLS (btw a really unique and intriguing league with its rules, salary caps, trades, draft etc too bad Sigames tend to get careless with several details in this league) and manage to win an unexpected championship in the first season.

I put together an offensive minded, technically gifted squad (I have to recommend young ecuadorian AMC/ST Fidel Martinez, unattached, a perfect fit as a striker and a true gem in this year's game) but to my surprise it was a rock solid defence that really brought me succes, with Sablic also winning the defender of the year award.

I never really dominated, winning most games 1-0 or 2-1, and with a few 0-0 as well, never really created so many scoring chances, but never really went down against anyone, losing just 2 games in 35. I played attacking at home and standard away (counter YES in both), playmaker is RMC (Maresca, good fit), defensive line just 1 under normal, man mark no tight for both D/RL and DC, close down always on opponent's wingers or AMCs, and did pretty well. Very few goals allowed, mostly float crosses for the lone big striker (which still surprises me), but overall some very nice defence.

For my next season I'd like to see a more stylish and productive attacking football, with more possession and scoring chances, as I think I have the right players for that, especially at MLS level. Opposite foot/side wingers like Perovic, DeRosario, Arturo Alvarez and youngster Assulin, midfield playmaker Enzo Maresca, and afore-mentioned striker Martinez (who was indeed the league leader in scoring) just don't seem to thrive like they should, even if they have learned perfectly the tactic (as my match preparation screen tells me).

The deep attacking midfielder has been somewhat disapponting so far, failing to be a scoring threat or create chances for others. Hopefully I'll find a way to make him more effective, or maybe just find the right player! Martinez is a goal-machine up front, but he could use some help now and then...

I'm also thinking of getting the full backs in a more attacking role to add some width and give extra options on the flanks, though I wouldn't want to mess with my solid defence. We'll see...

To summarize, great tactic Koflok, keep up the good work!

PS tactic is the beta version, with some minor defensive tweaking

 

[wii]

wow what a tactic

 

[ricardosoares]

I just want to congratulate KOFLOK about this tactic! I was using your first version for almost one season and the result was good but wasn´t that good (because the main features previously discussed here). For the last 10 games of the season i changed to your new version and the results were much, much and much better! Better defense, possession control and most of all, winnings after winnings!

Keep the good work!

 

[iluxon4ik]

[puschila]

Thanks for this good tactic m8, kinda still trugling with it at the moment as players never seem to score for me but gonna get some new wingers in winter break an see if it will help . One question, what training ar you using ? and can you post it ? Forgot one thing, what you do about your mach day training ? ( how do you keep it and how can i make my team learn formation faster ? )

 

[stasziek]

there is still 'little' problem on away matches. team possession still isn't good.

Half season review

Alright,I want to make a review of my game with CSKA(Sofia) using Goals Galore tactic that I tweaked to be more suitable for my weak team All I did was to change settings according to all I read in the posts.That resulted in a stronger and more stabile defensive line(as you can see on the screenshot) that concede little goals.In the same time team owns a huge amount of possession and scores lot of goals sometimes.
Since I start using this version of the tactic i had a single defeat(away vs. Leverkusen) and won all other matches(with a bit of luck sometimes of course )
But I'm extremely pleased with the wins against Sporting C.P. and the last one eliminating Villarreal 4-1 on aggregate Next to go - almighty Juventus(probably the end of the dream)

So thanks to everyone who helped with ideas and proposes.See you for the end of the season

 

[Yanfaic]

Trying this out with Villa at the moment, very early days but this tactic has Rafael and Mancilla playing amazingly so far. Will post my progress later.

 

[LewSpaz]

hey, how did your CM advanced playmaker perform in your tactic? Im just wondering so I know whether my fabregas will be under performing or doing the job correctly, could you post how many assists/goals he got in a season please? cheers

Not spectacular but get the job done. Delivered a lot of assists - topping the assists table just behind Xavi and sometimes pop from behind to score a goal from a cut-back pass from the byline.

Try making him run with ball to mixed.

Download the new version it seems to improve the performance.

Usually don't post but feel like giving some feedback this time...

Cheers thanks.

Yeah the deep attacking midfielder still need works. Hasn't been the most effective role so far. I'm working on a new version though, I have tweaked his role extensively and began to perform better. I put VdV there and he scores goal at a rate which is not bad for a midfielder.

And yeah I was thinking to make the fullback having more thread while defensively-discipline. Hug touchline just popped in my head just now. Mind giving that settings a try?

and yeah just realized.. I'll PM you an updated- unreleased tactic if you want to test it out - since you've been giving an extensive feedback

Thank you. Glad the new version is working out well.

WOW. that's all that i can say.

Woohoo! Thank you thank you.
Seems like you've just cracked the right settings for the team instructions.
Been working well in mine too.

Yes, when played right the ST role is godlike.
Suarez is really good though on the left.

Here's a thought. Put Di Maria on the right and Suarez on the left. Higuain up front.
You can use Neymar as a super-sub or something.

That might be deadly on the attack.

 

[Robwiks]

What would you say about playing Hulk as the AMR?

Ibrahimovic
Pato_______Hulk

What do you think?





Oh and I just have to say. This tactic is amazing defensively now. Great work.
​

 

[koflok]

Honestly if I have Hulk I would sell Ibra and put Hulk upfront and buy a world class left-footed right winger since Hulk is the most perfect player to play in that striker position so far.

But that's just me.

Yeah if Hulk has accomplished in playing AMR (which he does in real life), put him there. I might suggest to lessen his through ball to sometimes though since he's not a great passer and that way he would run pass defender more.

__

Thanks! Are you using the new version?

 

[Robwiks]

Yup. The newest.

Well Ibra is my favourite player. (Being swedish, hehe) So I'd quite like to have him there. I might consider selling him though...

I wish I could get Robben aswell.

Hulk
Pato Robben

But Robben isn't an option for me atm. Could you recommend someone else to try to sign?
​

 

[koflok]

Nah you don't have to sell Ibra.

You can just put Hulk on the right and make him mixed long shot and mixed through ball.

If you're interested to buy a good winger. Buy Douglas Costa. Cheap, wonderkid and right for the position

 

[Robwiks]

I can't.. He's from Brazil and I can't sign any more non-european players this season, and I'd like one now.

How about Giuseppe Rossi? Young, Italian, exceptionally good at most things. Only 13 in pace though (15 acceleration). Do you think that would be a problem?

 

[riddance]

gasp just got crash. havent save the game and chelsea are 10 games win in a row

what a pity -_-

 

[TimmyTopper]

Conceding soooooooooooooo many goals from crosses, any ideas on how to stop this?
