Hello all..

Recently took over as manager for Inter. I'm using Raikan's tactic : http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/foot...ining/78457-raikan007s-perfect-4-3-1-2-a.html which is working great. High possesion every game, and out shooting everyone. Last 5 or so games I had 20 + shots and about 5 on target.

Yes you guessed it. None of my strikers are scoring, and it's driving my insane!

This is my strike force, that I have to deal with...

Balotelli
Eto'o
Destro
Sanogo

who do you play together and have you changed the roles mate?

 

[inky#22]

I usually play Balotelli and Eto'o. Sanogo has been injured last few months. Havent changed the roles no..

It seems to me that you're employing two strikers with very similar characteristics.

Strikers:
Left: Complete forward, strong, stamina, good at finishing and holding up the ball
(Falcao, Fred, Drogba)
Right: Quick agile, good at dribbling, passing, crossing, shooting and finishing
(Hulk, Mounir El Hamdoui, Suarez)

I can only guess that you're playing Balotelli as the strong complete forward and Eto'o as the quick and agile. Problem is that Balotelli's understanding of the game is absolute s**t. He has no teamwork ability and neither the work rate to get his team on the go.

Maybe try Eto'o as a Complete Forward and Destro or Balotelli as the other striker?

Thats exactly how ive been playing them.
Ive read on this forum, somewhere, that Sanogo is supposed to be amazing as a complete forward, and now that hes finally back ill try him in that spot.. Did win the game for me against Roma in that spot..

 

[Raikan007]

which one are you using mate? the Amc one or the new Dm?

tone down the Str long shots and ask him to maybe cut inside and run from deep often

make the Stl slot a bit more attacking, play through balls often, drop a bit deeper sometimes to get the ball and play in the Poacher

I'm using the one with the amc. Ill tweak it around a bit
