Remembering Kevin Francis - Direct Target Man 442 Tactic - 117 points Birmingham 1st Season

Remembering Kevin Francis - Direct Target Man 442 Tactic - 117 points Birmingham 1st Season 2

What if I'm using this tactic with say a LLM team like say Stockport and I can't buy a player with an average 15 attribute for long throws?

Try to at least find 2 players with around 12 long throws and still utilise them, train them in long throws too.
 
Ah ok, I mean I've had a look at players with attributes not many this low down right now

@thedude1979 Any recommended PPMs for players? (other than long flat throw)

@TheStockportFan86 I currently only have one guy with long throws he takes them from both sides but i've had success with guys without the ppm and low throwing stats just get less throw in goals.

Plays with back to goal maybe for target man. Attacking ppms for full backs.
 
Important: When promoted to the premier league, or otherwise hitting above your weight, add 'get stuck in' instruction.
 
Working like a charm with my RB Leipzig save !
Poulsen destroying it as a target man.
 
Firstly I love this tactic - it got me promoted to the Premier League with Sheffield Wednesday. In the Prem, I can't buy a win! Relegation beckons sadly - I did add get stuck in as recommended but unfortunately I may have to move away from this to try and keep us up.... wish me luck!
 
Imported in my Inter first season save and after 25 games 22W 2D 1L ... :)
It was just curiosity but now I will deff continue playing,my strikers scoring for fun,defence incredible,beaten Juventus 2 times crushing them,what to say more...
this pictures are evidence,my last game quart finals against Real Madrid at home 6 0 outclassed them in every segment even my team is not ideal wingers are not TOP,i bought them in January just to test this tactic :)
Lukaku playing against every opposition in this role hehehe,Amazing job I like TARGET MAN,always liked....

The most interested season maybe ever in my FM experience,losing Seria A two games before end at home against Atalanta,unlucky offcorse they have score two goals one from penalty at the start of the match,I would probably won if I used this tactic from day one!Champions Cup lifted crushing everybody who steps in front of me!From Real Madrid to Liverpool then final against Ajax who knock out Bayern and Paris SG....
wON italian Cup also against AC Milan...
Lukaku best scorer in the league even better then CR7...
Now probably I will finnaly sign players so important in crucial positions like Wingers and Full Backs with decent Long throw attributes,then I want to stop this Juve domination in Serie A once for ever!
Forza Inter ?

Wow man, well done! Great results. I've reloaded my game - done with testing now. Want to see how this baby can do with me fully at the helm. Started alright!
