Use this tactic when you need to protect your lead and "kill" the game. Please notice that this tactic doesn't give 100% guaranty that you don't concede it only greatly reduces the probability of it so if you start using this tactic too early, for example, when you've got a shaky lead by 1 goal then it might backfire and you might concede a fluke goal at the last minute and give away a win so you should use this tactic it wisely.

YELLOW AND RED CARDS

Please notice that all positions in the tactic have “Tackle Harder” PI which means that you need to control your players’ tackling aggression during matches in order to avoid getting a man sent off so if during a match you see that someone of your players gets booked then go to the tactic menu and add "Easy Off Tackles" PI to this players or otherwise there’s a high risk that this player gets a second yellow card/red card.






OPPOSITION INSTRUCTIONS:

DON'T USE ANY OIS AND DON'T LET YOUR ASSISTANT MANAGER TO SET ANY OIS FOR YOU









TRANING AND MATCH PREPARATION:

1)Put the tactic into all 3 tactic slots because it makes the tactic familiarity grows much faster.


2) During the pre-season set MATCH PREPARATION(Main Focus) - "Match Tactics" set the training as it's shown at the screenshot below.

MT_Training.png



3) During the pre-season play no less than 6-7 friendly matches, I recommend arranging friendly matches vs much weaker opponents in order to get guaranty easy wins and have "Superb" morale for the begging of the season.


4) When the tactic familiarity reaches about 90% then change MATCH PREPARATION(Main Focus) to "Att. Movement" and set the training as it's shown at the screenshot below.

FILTERS

DOWNLOAD FILTERS --> TFF Stormcaller Filters V1


First of all, if you are going to use the filters then you should turn OFF the "Attributes Masking" setting when you start a new save otherwise the filters will be useless.

Also, you need to understand that when starting a new save the more nations you load and the larger database you set, the more players appear in the filters.

Here's a screenshot with an information how you can turn it OFF when you start a new:

The more expensive "package" you have, the more players appear in “Player Search” menu.

In order to have all players in game appearing in “Player Search” menu you need to have the best possible package “World”.

Please notice that the default settings of the filters are very tough and it's supposed to show the best 10-15 players in the world for the positions in the tactic and only the top clubs from the major European football nation can afford such players and it's obvious if you manage a small club then you can't afford to have such player and you need to "easy" the matching condition one by one until you find someone that you can afford to buy. It might look like this:

You need to be very careful when you "easy the matching conditions" because some important attributes might be missed by much and you always should know what attributes are missed and by what amount.


Also, it's very important to understand that if you bought a player using the filters then it doesn't mean that now you have the best possible player for the position and you shouldn't look for any better player for this position, the filters might show very different quality players and some players might be much better than other player even the filters show them all, the filters just show players that have their CA(points) allocated in optimal way for the position and that’s all but some players might have much more point to allocate than other players and of course if one player has much more points to spend on the important attributes for the position then he’ll be more efficient than the other player that has much less points to spend on the on the important attributes for the position.

Real Madrid

Hey TFF

Much appreciated for all your hard work once again. If you were to start a Real Madrid save, which version would you use.

Thank in advance ;-)
 
Can we get hold of the tactic testing league you use please mate, I'd love to use the format as a basis for my own tactics and tweaks

There was a thread in FM 17 tac-sharing section dedicated to the TFF Testing League. You should be able to find it still. Maybe it has been tweaked since of course.
 
quick question, under training you have the individual training for all the strikers and Amc as Treq as well as the DMC as DLP, this does not match the roles in the tactic, was just wondering the reasoning behind training for roles which are not being played, thanks
 
Two Strikers version and One Striker Attacking version worked amazing with my Rotherham side in Sky Bet League 1, I finished the 1st placed and had the best goal difference in the league by far :)
 
tested some of this tactics with small team just to confirm my old teory that tactics with 4 players at back canot instantly win the title in first season.

this tactics are not good for small teams who wants instant result.

tactics are good on paper but match engine will destroy your defense from wide crosses.


to play with 4 players at back you realy need to have great defenders with high all round atributes.

curently tactics with 3 players at back are much better,

offcourse there are some good tactics with 3 strikers but they dont use clasic wingers.

my favorite formation is 4-3-1-2 even I menaged to finish 3 as Burnley in first season didnt have feeling that I can beat any team.

my point is that with curent match engine it is realy insane hard to have instant succes with 4 players at back.
