Manchester United tactic & strategy in FM 2012 (won EPL and FA Cup in the 1st season)
hi, i had won EPL and FA Cup in my first season with United and i had never tried to repeat the game if i've lost or drawn, so i did it all in the first trial. So, this is my strategy. United is basically good in 4-4-2 formation with Chicharito as a poacher, Rooney as a trequartista, Nani & valencia winger (attack), Anderson advnc Playmaker (attack), Carrick deep-lying-play maker (defend), Vidic & Rio centre back (defend), Smalling & Evra full back (support)/ (defend if facing a strong-attacking-style team like City), i always use control strategy, fluid philosophy, shorter pass style, more expressive, press more, man marking and more roaming, def line deep, time wasting rarely with counter attack, pass to feet, retain posession, play narrower, exploit the middle, play through defense, work ball onto box
For set pieces, i always aim the ball to the near post and place Rio and Vidic in near post and from the stats they both scored 12 times that mostly came from corners, the corner kick-takers must be nani (left), Giggs (right), Valencia (right).
With that strategy i am succesfully lead United to won the EPL and FA Cup, Chicha became top scorer with 26 goals, then united didn't conceded 6 games that became a new record for united, Chica had scored 47 times with 48 appearances in all competitions this season, united made 25 goals from direct corner in EPL this season,
i always close down and tightly mark all opponents and my team talk is always passionate and i made team meeting periodically to boost players' motivation, that's all my tactic and strategy for united, hope it can be useful for you, cheers =))
