Todays 3-2 win against Liverpool inspired me to re-create the tactics of the most decorated manager in the world. Obviously, Berbatovs incredible peformance played a HUGE part in this thread aswell. But, below im going to discus Ferguson’s tactics, which have seemed to get the best out of Dimitar Berbatov since his £31mil transfer from Tottenham 2 years ago.
Berbatov..... Rooney
Giggs..... Scholes..... Fletcher..... Nani
Evra..... Vidic..... Evans..... O'Shea
v. Der Sar
Giggs..... Scholes..... Fletcher..... Nani
Evra..... Vidic..... Evans..... O'Shea
v. Der Sar
Giggs plays ML and not AML because of his fading pace, which allows Evra, the wing back, the opportunity to overlap and help the attack. Whereas, Nani operates as a AMR and not a MR. His role is the same as the one Cristiano Ronaldo used to perform at Manchester United. However, he performs more crosses then shots, unlike his Portugese college Cristiano Ronaldo. Paul Scholes plays as a deeper lying midfield player and patrols the centre of the field, using his supreme passing skills to feed the attack. But to emulate it in FM2010, I have put him as an Advanced Playmaker with roaming. While Darren Fletcher runs from box-to-box to contribute greatly to both Manchester Uniteds attacking and defensive displays.
