Tactics, Training & Strategies Discussion

A section filled with useful hints and tips on how to get the best of out your Football Manager team, be it tactically, with player development or with any other strategic discussion.

Welcome to the Tactics, Training and Strategies Forum

When looking for assistance we need you to provide as much description as possible. Please include screenshots and should you be sharing your progress so far, you need to ensure you upload your tactic or training regime to the Forums or the Steam Workshop.

Certain approaches to the game will bottleneck you into the same issues across multiple formations, mentalities and role usage within your tactics. The aim of this forum is to help you diversify your play-style, create different plans and manage the flow of a game. Bear in mind that 'Plug & Play' style tactics aren't really going to be suited to this, as they're often very specialised and broadly play in a similar style.
