Think the problem here is that 4-4-2 is too simple a tactic to read, for me it only works when you have the best players. Anything less than the best and I feel you have to think outside the box. At the moment i'm trying a 5-2-1-2, 3 centre backs...2 wing backs, 2 central midfielders, and attacking midfielder and two forwards. I score lots of goals (concede a few too) but it seems to be working so far. Don't be scared to push that attacking bar up too far. Brimingham are in a tough league but being so attack minded should put fear into the other teams and catch them by surprise. Good luck.
 
Playing Bham myself mate with much the same formation: 2 holding midfielders and fast wingers. Won the championship and finished 10th in prem next season, just starting third season and gonna try for europe but that may be a stretch. Try downloading the tactics on this link:

They're similar to what you're trying but fine tuned by someone who knows. You may need to try and sign a classy midfielder (get rid of Nafti) because this tactic does need central midfielder who can tackle and pass. I signed a kid called prince buaban (sp) and he's turned into a proper little star.

good luck
 
Does anyone have any suggestions on a non downloadable or a 64bit vista compatible way of getting tactics?
 
I'm on Vista 64 and I can download the tactics and use them. The one on my above link will do for you and suits Birmingham and the way you were trying to play.

As for signings.: Buaben, Prince was my only major signing in the champ and Ched Evens first season in prem from Man City. He finished 3rd top scorer and now Benitez is upsetting his morale by talking about him all the time.

If you can get them in your champ side you'll be flying.
 
Nice to see another man playin late:)

At bottom of first post is:

Franky's MUFC '94 Tactic v2.tac

Click on this. Save to desktop or wherever. In FM go to tactics, then edit tactics, and then import. Just browse to where you saved the download and click import.

Job's a good 'un.

Good luck
 
Away tactics

does anybody have any away tactics i could use with the same squad?
 
If your still wanting a championship side Danny try QPR, good money and some not bad players.

Ive wrote some info on them in a previous thread.

Let us know who you decide to manage.
