I've tried to make a good Libero tactic in FM16 for a very long time, but i just cant get it good enough, so I came up with this instead. Using a sweeper instead of a Libero. A well rounded tactic, which doesnt conceed many goals and creates nice goals/chances. I've only tested it in holiday mode so far with Real Madrid, but it showed amazing promise in my Juventus save where I played the matches myself - havent lost a game yet. Remember to tickle off GET STUCK IN when your team has 3-4 yellow cards in a game.
I can go on all day about which type of players fit in best in the roles, but I know most of you are well aware of what type of players work in what roles etc.
Any tweaks are as always welcome. And if you have the time then please test it out yourself.

It is essentialy a 3-5-2, but with a twist. THE DARK ARTS OF DEFENDING!! Will post more results once i have the time to play through a whole season.

Its always a good idea to make a contain version to kill of games in the last 5-10 minutes of a tight game.

I havent tested if it will work even better if you have the two limited centerbacks man mark the opposing strikers, but you can play around with that option. It has worked wonders for me in previous tactics.

If you play with a small club, then its a good idea to have the CM on support and right wingback on support or defend and mentality on counter. Otherwise I think you'll get smashed by the big clubs.

Still working on this tactic. Trying to come up with a version that works great for lower teams. Right now I'm testing a version with Ascoli in Serie B, media prediction 21 and we're 2nd at the moment.
