Has anyone tried this tactic in the Portuguese league??
I?m on my third season with Benfica, i want to change tactics so i am going to give it a try...
I have a huge squad because i keep getting bad offers for my players... the only good offer i got was 40M
for Balanta... and i didn?t want to sell him...
Salvio, Rodrigo and Cardoso have good stats but don?t play any good from day one... I only managed to sell salvio for 29.5 to PSG witch was near his actual value...
Andr? Gomes on the other hand has been a good surprise...
 
Marvelous tactic Callamity.

In my second season with Tottenham, I won the Premier League. I also reached the Champions League final but lost.

Any need for a back-up tactic?

Hiya - as we know, the AI tends to learn tactics then adapt to make it tougher. Do you just stick with this one, or do you throw in the odd game with something totally different to throw the AI off the scent?

The Ai do not learn tactics in the way that you say, they play differently depending on their manager, their league position, their reputation and their goals. They also play appropriate to the level of team they are playing against and the weather conditions. So throwing curve balls will be detrimental to your own teams rhythm more so than countering a conspiracy theory.

in short, no you have no need to throw in something different :D

sinoffire,thaks,but i mean the screen with yuor tac.,with pothitions of your players...
 
^ I don't understand. You don't want my full squad list, but you want my players' position screenie. Wouldn't it be in first post if that's what you want?? Besides, you can just download the tactic in first post and see the position for yourself on your save.

Calamity, your tactic done me wonders. Kudos to you!!!!
 
Love this tactic. After using the original succesfully i tweaked it towards the end of my second season into a 433/451 and have carried on with it to great results. Not sure its better but it does seem to score more often and suits my players a little more.
 
I've found setting the instructions to 'Higher tempo' and 'Stay on feet' results in less goals conceded.
Great tactic still going strong with it!
 
I have mitrovic and lukaku as ST, could i change the role in this tactic to Advance Forward with the same player instructions ?

I have mitrovic as false 9 performing well, you can try any changes you like though but ensure you understand what the changes do, an advanced striker will most likely end up isolated up front
 
I have used this tactic, with its modifications in my long term save, check out my success here. So far, best tactic bar none.

Thank you for your wonderful tactic Callamity!

I decided to change my previous tactic to yours from Mainz match!

Result of Stuttgart end of season:

WON: Bundesliga
Runner up: German Cup - I used only B squad except for the final!
Semi Final: Europe Leage - I used only B squad!

Please note that tactic is still not fluid!!!View attachment 426418View attachment 426417View attachment 426415View attachment 426414View attachment 426412View attachment 426411View attachment 426409View attachment 426408View attachment 426405View attachment 426404View attachment 426402View attachment 426401View attachment 426400
