I want to know what you think the best and most effective tactic you have used or downloaded on FM. Not just the one who makes Chelsea win everything but that works for any team in any situation. My personal favourite which never seems to fail is Complete Dominance, lovely attacking goal scoring, yet solid tactic. There would be no need for anythign else in my mind, but I am interested to see yours???
 
Mr Houghs, just stupid, theyre so good they ruin the game,
Of ones that dont ruin the game i would say JP Woody 4-1-2-1-2 direct counter are very good, as are Kris Ancelotti and Stuart Careys 4-3-1-2 attacking
 
Man, there is not one better than 4-1-2-1-2 - Only losers need a Wingman: http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=2031

Its like who uploaded said, perform like AI cheater.

I only tested with Real Madrid, and I won almost everything (current year: 2024), my team is really class and far above others, so I dont know how it works out in others teams. But Im sure of one thing, this tactic is just perfect, dont matter how much my team is awesome, is THIS tactic that unleash it :D

I have tested many of others in my team, others two class tactics are: 4-1-5 Goals Glutter 2010 - Patch 10.3 and Mr Hough's Wonder Tactic.

If I have to choose are those three tactics.

Theres some tactics you even get bored to test, dont work out and you read "let a time until gel" or "long term benefits". Why would I bet? If it dont work out in one or two games just doenst. With these three tactics I just have to plug and play and get real time benefits, dont matter the oponent, if its a home or away game, is just wonderful and perfect. Nevermore see your team struggle against anyone :D

Yeah, I totally agree about ' Only Losers...' - It's easily the most consistent I've come across. It's a **** shame it was'nt written for FM10 though - it's difficult to tweak a game strategy mid-match with no access to touchline shouts or player roles - but it can't be denied it's a match winner & you very rarely lose games with it. It's even more effective when you incorporate your own set-piece instructions ( & no, I'm not talking about the 10.3 lurking edge of area corner bug or the horrible pre-10.3 far-post corner bug ).

I'm getting a lot of success with near-post flick-ons, but there's a lot of good non-bug routines out there I'm sure.

I have noticed that the tactic is'nt as effective against the odd-looking 4-2-3-1 formation, however ( eg: Liverpool ), as you're trying to play through an already packed central midfield, but against more conventional tactics like 4-4-2 or winger-inclusive ones, it generally takes the opposition to the cleaners. So if you don't mind the lack off tactical control during a match, look no further than ' Only Losers...'
