loisvale Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I assume that mentality can be changed to suit and stopping forward runs for WBs and reducing to very defensive on Anchor is a good SUS strategy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeardedGamer Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I did a test season with Wigan. 250/1 in preseason odds to win the league but we did it. 110 goals, conceeded 51 and lost 9. Will test using other teams in different leagues and post my results. Overall its a good tactic already. Maybe just beta luck though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my questions is that other than you Man Utd 07/08 tactic all of them use a standard, lower tempo style. Is there any reason that this is a more successful tactic? Or is that a personal preference or do are tactics not as successful with that style of set up? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knap Posted October 25, 2018 Author Share Posted October 25, 2018 I tend to have more success with lower tempo. Tempo is a risk factor and if you use a high tempo overload everything becomes to rushed and very slow play takes less risks. With the 07/08 tactic it may have been part of brief. I tend to find the slightly lower tempo more balanced Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaackgarland Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 This tactic is incredible. I was struggling for a while, got sacked by spurs.

private pyle Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Do you alter the mentality at all during matches I.e if you are 2-0 up do you change it to a more defensive mentality or do you just keep it at attacking always? Also do you set opposition instructions or just leave it without any? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Scout Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 2. bundesliga: FC Magdeburg media prediction 17th at the start of the game (1.001,00), media prediction after half season 14th (151,00), and I was already higher when taking a lead in 2nd bundesliga for a while. Currently on 3rd place close top No transfers Half season results (17 games/34) Training AM, team talks AM Using 4222 Anchor Volante tactic + toying with mentalities during games (not changing anything else) My thoughts: A very good underdog tactic. Mentalities seem to be working well with this tactic; if need to score - very attacking, preserving one goal lead - very defensive, having 2+ goals - can go cautious Injuries seem more common, but not extreme, as I saw on forum. So rotation was necessary. Interestingly I won very big teams like Schalke in cup, won clear favourite Hamburg in league. Almost won Bayer L. in next cup round - was playing 10 men from 28 minute (!) They score in the last minute of 2nd extra time (!) Surprisingly however I struggled with some average or low positioned teams. LOTS of shots on target from my team and opponent sometimes scores with 1 or 2 shots - i suspect defensive mentality. Against Bayer L. I played very defensive mentality when the score was equalised. Look at the picture of the game and shots on target 2/17 - proving defensive mentality works well with this tactic. Away games seem harder, maybe an idea to change mentality for away game permanently, but need to find out which would be ideal, so it also gives you the chance to score. Away game (picture below) against FC St. Pauli (subtop team). I score in 1st minute, then I am already 3-1 down in 38th minute. Change to very attacking and score 2 goals to equalise. As I wanted more, they score back, so I played very attacking to the end scoring another late equaliser. Proving very attacking mentality works when you need a goal. And it can backfire if you are to greedy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
