sherica- Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 *****************UPDATED WITH VERSION 3 TACTIC***************** 111points, 123 goals, unbeaten at Home for 4 seasons and running. what more can you ask for!! [ Indivdual Position Attribute Analysis I will be using 1 "World Class" player for each position to emphasize the type of player required. GOALKEEPER Goalkeeping Aerial Abilty Handling Reflexes Mental Concentration Positioning Bravery Physical Agility Jumping Only one important point to note, the GK in this tactic does not require good distribution(kicking/throwing) stats because the distribution is set to defender collect to build up play from the back.The GK always end up with the highest passing completion rate since he just roll the ball in front for the defenders. CENTER-BACK Technical Heading Marking Tackling Mental Concentration Positioning Bravery Physical Jumping Balance Strength Passing is not very important since they have very little creative freedom and play short passing. The CB will quickly release the ball to the midfield trio. Pace/Acceleration is a bonus since tight marking is on but is not essential. FULLBACK Technical Marking Tackling Mental Aggression Anticipation Concentration Positioning Work-rate Physical Stamina Pace Acceleration A real work horse in the team. You will notice that your FB will struggle to complete 90mins with low stamina. Dribbling and Crossing is not a must unlike your usual modern FB since their primary role is to run a lot, marking and tackling player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherica- Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Continued from 1st post... Indivdual Position Attribute Analysis I will be using 1 "World Class" player for each position to emphasize the type of player required. ANCHOR MAN Technical Marking Tackling Mental Anticipation Determination Concentration Positioning Teamwork Work-rate Physical Stamina Those listed are the most important attributes. Heading/Passing/Creativity are good bonus too. Although his sole job is to sit in front of the back 4 to break up play. He does provide some assists once in awhile. CENTER MIDFIELDER Technical Dribbling Passing Technique Mental Creativity Anticipation Teamwork Physical Stamina Notice both the CM are on exactly the same instruction. So the only way to play them differently is the type of CM you chose to play in this position. Primarily the CM role is to provide the bullets for the 3 strikers in front of them. But since we are not playing any Wingers in the wide position they will need to do maximum closing down all over the pitch. We are looking at 3 different kind of CM players here... 1st - The "Playmaker" They are the best in providing defense splitting through balls for the strikers but they tend to suffer in every other department. (Xavi, Pirlo and Alonso etc) 2nd - The "Dynamic Powerhouse" They seems to be able to do everything that a CM required, only that they don't excel in any. Most of these type of players have high teamwork and work-rate which is good for closing down the whole pitch. (The Sissoko's and The Diarra's) 3rd - The "Speed Demon" They are fast, pacey, like to take players on and full of flair. Most of them possess either good passing or finishing as well. They turn the CM position into a very attacking role, which means your defense in the middle of the park is gonna suffer more compare to the other 2. (Messi, Pastore, Ozil and Hazard etc) So how do you decide among these 3 kind if CM role to play?? To be honest, all 3 roles can excel here but you need to strike a balance within the trio of midfielders (including the ANCHOR MAN). For example if you ANCHOR MAN is good passing you can probably skip the "Playmaker" role. Even 3 "Dynamic Powerhouse" can do the job as well. It really depend on the flow of the game, bring on the attacking CM if you are losing the game and substitute in the more defensive type of player if you are protecting your lead. RIGHT STRIKER Technical Dribbling Finishing Passing Technique Mental Anticipation Decision Off The Ball Physical Pace Acceleration Arguably the most important player in the team. He usually scores a lot and assists the most(YES! Assists as well) With NO creative freedom but "Often" on Through Ball. Contradicting? YES Effective? YES. With 0 creative freedom he will just finishes his chance presented either by his 2 striking partners or from the midfield. If he receive the ball while he is not in front of the goal mouth he can choose to take on players or pass a simple through ball to whoever is available. With Wide Play set as "Move Into Channel" expect him to be in very valuable position. Combine these instructions and it works like a dream! CENTER STRIKER Technical Finishing Heading Technique Mental Off The Ball Composure Physical Jumping Balance Strength The exact opposite of your Right striker. He roams around, drop deep and make sudden run from deeper position. But with max creative freedom. why? Because he need to hold up ball and lay it off to his teammates or when he is in deeper position he will thread a pass or make some crosses. LEFT STRIKER Technical Dribbling Finishing Passing Mental Flair Off The Ball Teamwork Physical Stamina Pace Acceleration Mainly he is here to make the other 2 strikers look good. He act as a decoy to pull the opposite team anchor man, fullback and probably center back out of position. He does score occasionally but play your two best strikers in the other 2 striking role and fill up this role with your remaining striking option. But there's no harm playing a good striker here if you can afford it, the whole attacking trio will be more deadly.

Hollender Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 This looks alot like Mr. Houghs tactic for FM10. I have tried to use it for FM11 with mixed success. Then I found another similar and had great success with it, but it was in the "old" version. This could be my way back to success and I'm going to try it out. I'm playing Wrexham in BSP and just entered February in my 1st season (I'm nr. 2 in the league) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadatherion Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Still haven't tested it long enough to really give a valuable feedback, but there's something in the tactic I find really strange: you suggested to use a target man for the central attacking role (strong player with good heading etc), and a fast one for the right attack spot. Fact is the central attacker is set as support role, with free movement on and high creative freedom, while the right attacker is set at zero creative freedom... Doesn't really make much sense, as the players who are able to give good performances with high creative freedom - and those who have an high value in free role stat - usually are the fast strikers, while the target ones rarely even have points in free role... As such, using as example my Sampdoria team, wouldn't it make more sense to use Cassano in the central attacking role and Pazzini on the right, instead of the opposite as one would understand from your suggestions?

If you have been a avid follower of Mr Hough tactic since FM10 you will know that this tactic is the FIRST tactic he created for FM10, you should also know that after he created this tactic he went on to create 2 to 3 more tactic for FM10 which he feel its better. this are the other two tactic... http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/226882-Mr-Hough-Winger-10.3?highlight=Hough Using winger, i dont use wingers http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/219027-Mr-Hough-4-1-2-1-2-Tactic-10.3?highlight=Hough 2strikers but i play with 3 strikers. I believe Mr Hough have his own reason for discarding his original tactic. But since this tactic have bought me unparalleled success in FM10(so i stick with it), Moreover i have tweaked the tactic heavily myself that probably the only "Mr Hough" remnants left from the original tactic is the shape of the team. My thread is for all to see here, including Mr Hough who by the way have created another tactic for FM11, heres the link... http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/237392-Mr-Hough-s-Tactics-FM11-Patch-11.1-Sneak-Peek does it look anything like mine??

Somedevil Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 this tactic might start out a bit shaky. i mean i am milan and i lost to wolves for cryin out loud ! once season starts this tactic works really well, esp in home games. i was a bit frustrated initially as i was letting in goals and even worse, late goals. e.g. leading Chievo 3-1 and they score 2 in last ten mins to make it 3-3. Milan has a good squad and i baught new fullbacks as it is. the tactic starts at the usual overload setting. I started changing it to counter after i scored a goal against a big team or a better team. it worked a bit. But you cant stay at counter forever coz its as if AI figures out the tactic and always manages to score one which usualy results in a draw. Unless you are madrid/barca/man city... i believe you'll have to judge when to go a gear down or to push back a gear up. In 7 games out of ten this gets me an early goal and once i get a better squad i assume the results will be better. Robinho/Ibra/Pirlo/Nesta do really well on this.

When protecting a slender lead nearing the end of the match you should change it from "Overload" to Standard/Defensive/Contain whichever you deem fit. Remember to substitute out all the tired players with condition >75%(especially the FB and ST) as well. hope it gets better for you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_B.E.R.T. Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Very good tactic, had awesome results so far. Even that good that I'm almost wondering if you found an exploit in the game. It seems to work with big teams and small teams, regardless of how good the players are. I practically play anyone on my SCL (because of a lack of strikers) and they ALWAYS do good. Nonetheless it gets me my results, and I'm very happy with it Only thing is though, is it necessary to always use 'overload' as a start? My players are exhausted after one half.

Fearthainn Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Worked brilliantly for me on my Glentoran save. Won the league 1st season and got through the qualifying rounds of the CL the next year to qualify for the group stage. Amazing! In my Everton save I've been having mixed results. First season and I am 7th in March. I'm strong at home but struggling away. I still seem to create as many CCCs as the opposition when playing away from home, just my strikers can't score, so maybe the problem lies with them and not with the tactic. I am playing with Yakubu, Saha and Beckford up front which is not the best attacking trio. I will let you know how I get on after bringing a couple of new strikers in the Summer.

At their peak of course they are top top strikers but both of them being 37/36 respectively i applaud you for continuing their legendary careers. Fellaini behind Cahill and Arteta. The strongest area of the team definitely. Just a suggestion. You might want to try playing Cahill upfront, he was pretty lethal playing in the Center Striker role back in my demo save. i would even throw Fellaini upfront for a few games and see how he fare. Also draft Rodwell into the starting 11. Rodwell should be very capable of playing in any of the CM/DM role. I'll be uploading an updated version of this tactic soon, with several changes to the set piece instructions. Right now im scoring well above the league average goals scored from set pieces and also conceding lesser from set pieces. hopefully this will make the tactic to be overall more solid.

zombo Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Ill give this a real try on my Liverpool save. Almost done with the first season and i have played 5 matches with this tactic so far. Its pretty much the same results ive had with a lot of different tactics so far in FM11, very good at home and unstable at best away.. 3 wins at home so far. 3-0, 3-1 & 2-0. 2 defeats away so far. 0-1 & 0-4! 0-1 defeat was against City, and i was the better team. However my strikers doesnt have a clue when playing away. 0-4 was against Arsenal. Looking forward to testing this for real when the next season starts. The team will know the tactic well and im hopefully able to buy a few quality players, which my Liverpool squad lacks atm(except Reina, Gerrard, Torres & Rossi).

Thanks again deer im using my own training schedules. i always start with Team Blend from Pre-season to around 10matches(in all competition) into the season or at least until every department reach around 60%. after that, for 4-6 matches i switch around randomly in every other department. once i reach around 75% in all areas, i set it at "Very Low" for the players to concentrate in their training. Ill give this a real try on my Liverpool save. Almost done with the first season and i have played 5 matches with this tactic so far. Its pretty much the same results ive had with a lot of different tactics so far in FM11, very good at home and unstable at best away..3 wins at home so far. 3-0, 3-1 & 2-0. 2 defeats away so far. 0-1 & 0-4! 0-1 defeat was against City, and i was the better team. However my strikers doesnt have a clue when playing away. 0-4 was against Arsenal. Looking forward to testing this for real when the next season starts. The team will know the tactic well and im hopefully able to buy a few quality players, which my Liverpool squad lacks atm(except Reina, Gerrard, Torres & Rossi). hopefully you can give yourself and this tactic a chance and test it longer before switch to another tactic. with the right players in each position and after the team blend im very confident it will work. well ive got 2 teams to test this with, my Barcelona side and my Prem Barnsley side after getting promoted in my 2nd season with Barnsley I feel I may need a tactical change to help keep me there shall update after a few games waiting for your positive feedback Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerjnick Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I'll be uploading an updated version of this tactic soon, with several changes to the set piece instructions. Right now im scoring well above the league average goals scored from set pieces and also conceding lesser from set pieces. hopefully this will make the tactic to be overall more solid. That is my only concern with this tactic, conceding from set pieces... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherica- Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 **************UPDATED TACTIC WITH NEW SET PIECE INSTRUCTIONS*************** The Formation My Manager Career Stats so far. i have taken over as the Manager of an ailing Arsenal side after 4 very successful seasons with my beloved Napoli team. and of course Im continuing to win with them! Goals from Corner Goals from IFK Okay guys its here! After some tweaking to the team set piece instruction, hopefully the team overall performances during set piece situation becomes better. I'm a big fans of attacking football, so i would advise you guys to set Match Preparation to "Attacking Set Pieces" to fully exploit the effectiveness of this instructions! Defensively it should not be too shabby as well. REMEMBER to play you faster striker in the RIGHT STRIKER POSITION. he will be the main outlet for counter attacking during set pieces.
