The Rock and Sicilian Defence seem to work even with other match prep than the suggested and also in combination with other tactics:
Velez - expected to come 7th - In Feb leading by 6 points (4 defeats - at least one of which was not the fault of the tactics). Comfortably in all the cups as well.
El Ahly - expected to come 3rd - In Feb leading by 3 points. Knocked out of one of two cups. 4 defeats and some draws. Not the fault of tactics but of squad size bearing in mind the many competitios.
But the tactics are so good that its all a bit boring as plug and play means plug and do nothing ....
Has anyone else noticed that The Rock tends not to work in cup matches as well as it does in league matches resulting in extra time/defeats to lesser teams?
