Assuming its the team tactics, then they are not uploaded. Takes about 1 minut to set it up and then just save some groupshouts.

Very satisfied with number of goal against.

I have mainly using:
Home - Attacking, after half time if i'm winning or after 2 goals up, changed to Direct Counter
Away (me favourites, teams that are not top teams in England) - Balanced, after half time if i'm winning or after 2 goals up, changed to Direct Counter
Away (vs top teams) - Cautious Counter

Many draws away vs middle teams using balanced approach... i tried starting the game with direct counter in these matches, no luck.. Simply, home i dominating and playing much better than away..

Any advice TBH?

And p.s., really great system, congrats mate!

It might be that you could be more adventoures with the players in these matches. When playing as Chelsea, we normally use our strong MCs and at home, we rock. When playing away, it might be a good idea to play balanced or even counter ..BUT.. use some more flair in the center of the park to lauch these counter attacks ( yes, we get them with balanced to)

Also remember: This is an Italian 4312 :D

Really nice set of results you send me in the PM. Sitting top with Leeds in is my opinion really, really good. When you upload the screens, would you care to tell use about your approach ?. When(and why) did you play quick and agressive and when did you play patient ?

Cheers
 
Started a save with Leicester, using a Wide 4231. Here, I am using 3 approaches that should see me perform in a 4 year plan. First as a top team, then ( if getting promoted) as an underdog, then as a middle team and then finally as a top team in the EPL. So its basiclly a mixture between the Arsenal, WBA and QPR tactics :D
 
Leeds United tactic:


I'm at half season, and until now, the tactic looks pretty

You can judge yourself:

League table:


Fixtures: 1st part 2nd part


Tactic:

Squad Stats:

As you can see Snodgrass carries the team almost alone.

Perhaps, my strikers seems to not like to score again and I lost Keogh who returned to Wolves

Concerning the approach, I use the Quick and Agressive shouts at start, and your Wider and more patient when I'm leading by 2 goals or at the end of the match. Am I doing right ?

That looks really good. As for right or wrong, it looks like you are getting it right. I am currently playing a 433 with Leicester. I haveonly played 5 league mathes so far but it looks really good :D
 
When choosing which tactic a team should use, should choice be made by media prediction? for example if i've been predicted to finish 13th, would that mean using the mid-table version of the tactic?

Does Media prediction give an indiction of how teams are going to setup against you in future matches?

it depends on many factors but the media prediction would be a pretty good indicator. Just remember that this indicator does not only take the quality of the squad into account, but also the status of the club and this one of the reasons why Leeds have a media prediction or 3rd.

Leeds is a really good example of a team where you have to adjust to reality. You have a high status, the board expectations are high and as most opponents will consider you a big threat, they will sit deep and defend. NOt that deep deep though, they will still play rather agressive. Here, Leeds simply dont have the quality to play a probing possession game and break down these defensive opponents and instead of playing with the approach suited for a top team, one might have to settle for the middle team tactics, just like the user a few posts back have done ( sitting top after 24 matches)

Also remember that whilst the team tactics are not only suited for Man U, Aston Villa, Bolton etc, their name is in the description for a reason. The Man U approach is mainly for top teams that have quality team players, just like the Aston Villa approach mainly is for middle teams with lots of pace upfront, and the Bolton one for a team with strong attackers and a playmaker

You don't download, you click on the tactic you wish to use then copy the tactic on to your tactic page. Literally copy it, there is no .tac file.
 
I started a new game with Pescara in Serie B (I love playing in Italy) and I'm trying out your Italian 4312. Pre-season was good and eight matches into the season, sitting top of the table with six wins and two draws. Gotta say, it's been very entertaining so far, watching them play it actually feels quite realistic. I'm pretty good at rage-quitting from frustration and find it difficult to get a tactic working so I'm glad your approaches are doing well even though Pescara are predicted to finish 16th. Also gives me motivation to one day create a working tactic of my own. I'll keep ya posted.

Great results ! How do use this approach ? Are you playing like I did in My Italian Inter project, mainly using Balanced to start with and then counter to see out results, or do you use control or cautious counter etc ?

Keep the feedback and screens coming :)

I am currently using à tweak with Novara, having pulled down à FC into DMC and we keep clean sheets 1-0, 0-0. 2-0, 0-0.
 
Well, I wasn't sure how to manage using the four different approached so I just use Balanced, Counter and Cautious. Most games I would start either Balanced or Counter as usually we're the underdogs, then when in the lead going to Cautious to try to hold out for a result. Amazingly, managed to get Pescara to the Coppa Italia semifinal only losing out to Inter. Towards the end of the season though form/morale dropped severely and that's something I'm not used to improving so we dropped a bit and finished in a playoff spot. Lost out in the playoff final but I'm forcing myself not to rage quit and plough on for another season! I've managed to keep Marco Verratti who is a super young club-grown talent for the time being. Any advice?

Edit: I spose one issue I'm having is that regardless of approach we have a lot of long range shots and at times almost no shots at all, shall I blame it a lack of quality in the team and if so, how would I get around this? Minimise long shots?
