***THE BETTER HALFS TACTIC UPLOAD & DISCUSSION

What folder do i have to create to put the training in, and under what folder do i create the folder?
 
your download file for this tactic is rar and not tac how do i install it in my game?
 
You need to download winrar or 7-zip, install it and extract the tactic file from inside the .rar file :D

Google one of the applications and you will find the website to download them from.

Default pitch but have à look in the OP about recommendations. Also consider that if having à team that is really slow and lacks speed, then just à more Narrow with normal length is the best( like when trying to get à team from BSP to the prem, always having lesser players than the opponent on this journey. Skin is called Scorpio and is from the download section here at FMBase

Ok end of my first season as Aston Villa, using a combination of this tactic and it's 3 formations.

I finished 9th in the Premier League, started really well, but as I weakened my squad selling big earners and bringing in cheaper, weaker young players performances began to dip. I won the Carling Cup and FA Cup thanks to fortuitous draws and other results resulting in my facing no top clubs in either competition. I have Europa League football next season and a £24m transfer budget to go with it.

Transfers for last season and the start of this season are: 2011/12

2012/13

These players are joining me on free or are regens/youth players who are waiting on work permits

For next season I'm hoping to add some promising youth to my squad as well as strength in depth, my defence needs major work after conceding 76 league goals last season! I also need to work on my team talks and man management because I have had a couple of players that were less than happy with me during last season.

Yeah, this squad you used ( and I use) should not be competetive over a whole season, espeiclly if morale has dropped due to selling their teammates etc. But...I think you will be suprised to see the final table of my Villa season using your save. I still have 3 matches to play and its looking exciting to say the least, really really exciting :D

Really looking forward to seeing your results and signings! I expect you'll be getting even more money than I got. I've had a couple of pre season matches so far and the squad is played well mostly, the strikers however are awful, I'm hoping they find form when competitive matches start because we had 17 shots in my last match with just 3 on target!

Actually, I did not sign anyone :)
Yeah, I get à poor SOT rating in preseason to, regardless what tactic I use. It usually gets om track around about 5-10 Of August though.

That's good then, generally I've noticed that my strikers can't stop scoring during preseason but never had a full preseason with this tactic so we'll find out. I've bought a lot of players in, got a big enough squad now to get through a season playing at least 2 games a week. Only 3 players left at the club on more than £40k a week now and they're players I'll be building my team around, Bent, Agbonlahor and N'Zogbia

Actually from match 29-35 ikn the Prem, I have used not a deep 442 but a flat one, using MC´s instead. Its sooo good :D. Probably just a middleteam tactic though and not an underdog.

Going to fininsh the season when the kids are in bed and will update with screens late, late tonight.

I'm doing the basics, my teamtalks aren't great, players don't think I'm good at them but theres no response to my assistant's team talks!
I think I'll hold a team meeting and try and raise morale, doesn't help that my team is just weaker now, hopefully will get some money in the summer after winning the carling cup and securing european football, some favourable results in the fa cup have left just Liverpool out of the big clubs so hopefully I can win that too!

I downloaded the 442, I need to retrain N'Zogbia desperately to be able to use it and Agbonlahor has been shocking in front of goal using it!

I know that you where refering to the 442 here but I forgot to ask. By "shocking" do you mean reallly, really bad ? . I so, did you play him in the FCleft spot or the FCright spot ( if remembering ). If in the FCleft, was Bent playing the FCr or a different player ?

Cheers

Very nice! Are we gonna see a 4th formation for this tactic?! I've been playing Delph a lot, he's brilliant in this formation, his shooting is poor though which costs a few chances.

I'm looking for a good centre back, do you have any recommendations?

That's amazing! That squad should never have won the league! Any amazing results to show?

Will upload lost of screens tonight. Screens of matches and playerstats, goals from set pieces etc.

I hav currently started a new save with Blackburn and are going to use a mixture of the deep 4231, the flat 442 and the deep 442 to make an asymmetric one that suits the actuall players in the club
