Hi Guys
Have been playing with this tactic for a while now and as I'm a massive fan of Andrea Pirlo I wanted a tactic that really exploited all of his skills. With FM2014's new Regista position this really enables me to do so!
It's a 4-1-3-2 formation with Pirlo sitting in the Regista position between the midfield and defence and dictating the play. I have set a lower tempo for the team with retain possession also selected, the idea is that we keep possession at all costs and keep the other team chasing the ball (don't know where i could have got this idea from!!! (Barca maybe!!))
I have had some fantastic away results including 2-4 away at Manchester United and 0-4 away at Roma. I started with a standard mentality and changed it once i went behind at Utd to attack and completely took them apart.
I would be interested to find out how this tactic works elsewhere and would welcome all feedback. Good luck to you all.
