How do I train a striker to place shots?
Where are preferred moves?
Tested further and came to this conclusion. The tactic is pretty good for home games,but the team seems to falter away from home

As you can see, my only away win so far has been at Getafe

Also my three attacking players are in pretty good form.
Could you tell me how could I improve my team's form away from home?
Wow, I just had to share this result
This was with first version of the tactic with some slight tweaks for my team.
I gave everyone a lot more freedom, changed the philosophy to very fluid and allowed more roaming. Also changed to man-marking and the starting strategy to control, change to drill crosses and upped the defense line to normal. Probably some more changes, because I've been trying to perfect the tactic for my team the last half of the previous season.
after some tweaks, your tactic works better for me in away matchs, some tweaks recommended by you:
WB: Closing Down - Own Area
DMC: Mentality - Normal | Closing Down - Own Half
MC: Both with Hard Tackling
Unfortunatelly this won't fit in my Chelsea.
Follow below formation:
GK: Cech
DL: A.Cole
DR: Ivanovic
DC: Terry
DC: Phil Jagielka
MD: Essien (Anchor)
MCR: Pirlo (Advanced Playmaker / attacking)
MCL: Lampard (Box-to-Box)
AMR: Anelka / Luis Suarez
AML: Malouda / Zhirkov
FC: Drogba / A. Paloschi
I've finished the mid-season and my pos is 8º in the Barclay's.
Have lost 9 games, 5 wins and 6 ties.
Untill now I have tested 3 different formations like 4-1-3-2 ; 4-5-1 and 4-1-2-1-2 (as sugested in the beggining by my *** Man) in 4 differents saves and nothing. Seems that is so unconsistent to build a tatic that really works on Chelsea (actually, this is the only team that I play) comparing to the FM 2010 where my former 4-1-3-2 tatic really suited well and I won everything that I have played (I mean Trophies and Leagues, of course).
I tried to import my 4-1-3-2 from FM2010 to FM 2011 and even with the same players, same instructions, same training and staffs don't work at all.
This is very frustrating.
maybe now you can play the game? its all about tweaking, you cant just put this tactic in and think your team will be inspired to win it all, i am by no means an expert in this game, and i have tweaked this tactic to fit my team, its not 100% like the people who show you results with 8-0 with ajax against fenerbahce, i have wanted to give up on my juve save so many times with this tactic too, but it gets better and better the more you try to work with it, keep your head up and just keep at it you will get results
btw koflok! tikitaka is class, just popped it in now on another save, will let you know how it goes
Yeah right.. it's all about tweaking... great... this is what I have been reading about here but I believe that my tweaks are dully done.
I'm trying to see if someone else has good results with this tactic on Chelsea because I'm starting to believe that Galore2011 just works in "small teams". :S
