Knap - FM24 and FM23 FM22_FM 21 - FM 20 -FM 19 Tactic List

@tyrell1017

Are Chelsea Lpool AI Controlled?

Is the team familiar with 4141 or 451?

I tend to stick with 1 tactic and only change in match if needed.

[tyrell1017]

No Chelsea and Liverpool was controlled by people. But I still didn't expect big losses like that. When Ive used the 4141 against AI, it's been good. I've beaten Arsenal and PSG away. 

[tyrell1017]

I've got Bayern away soon should I stick with the 4141. And yes the team are familiar with the tactic

[knap]

@tyrell1017

Against AI you should be fine as they tend to be more conservative.

My guess is that they are using very attacking tactics, and I fight fire with fire. I would also try to match up formations

[grayer23]

@knap

Loving your tactics again this season, I always download quite a few I like and use them on a variety of teams in one save. Quick question though, this year I've noticed a lot of them are set as VERY ATTACKING mentality, if I set this to attacking will it make the tactic less effective?

Cheers

@grayer23

In theory the tactics are built from a base and various TIs/PIs add a few pts each to that Base.

Dropping a VA back to attacking may just be a few pts over a season.

VA is just a risk factor which is slightly higher than attacking, so if VA does not work drop it back to attacking.

Thanks! I tend to use the VA at home and then drop to attacking or positive depending on the opponent away. Most are working a treat so far!!

I noticed in Spurs thread that Kwark made 109pts using I believe KASHMIR 433. There probably were transfers involved but should be attainable, as can win PL with Arsenal starting squad with 98pts.

The OP has ideas on being more defensive, has a guide on man marking and a mentality matters guide.

You are at a big disadvantage playing  Top 4 Away.. In general a 4141 formation should be a good option but I would try the 451 HB tactic.

Thank you! I see the 451 HB tactic is set to attacking mentality. Presumably I'd need to change this for a top 4 away game? Balanced?

@Paulinho26

It's in the opening post of this thread, titled RDF Training Schedules.

There are two schedules, one for one match per week and one for two matches per week.

[knap]

@T1cke

KASHMIR but I will post a PILGRIMAGE 433 later

hi @knap do you have tactic rafl ragnarik style?

Edited November 26, 2021 by haikal78

[knap]

@Paulinho26

I assume for last year. The latest training information will be on HUB Discord.

[knap]

@stevetemp

Attack is usually the best form of defence in FM. 

If you want to change mentality then I would say cautious

[knap]

@Spike

Did you find a problem with injuries with those schedules.?

I don't really do recreations.

Majority of the tactics implement high pressing, something Ralph is famous for. 

 

I would use a 442 or 451 as those where the shapes commonly used by him at Hoffenheim and Leipzig

[JayPricey]

Hi Knap. I'm finding wide players quite disappointing this year in a number of your tactics, especially IFs getting very low ratings constantly.

Is there anything you can suggest/any required instructions?

[knap]

@JayPricey

If you are getting results I would just ignore ratings as there has always been problems, usually DM and AM.

Also low ratings may give you a chance to boost their attributes, so could work in your benefit.

Also the ME still has a problem with IFs so it could change with next patch

Nothing out of the ordinary, apart from a one off where 3 players suffered minor injuries in one training session.

[LVercetti]

 

 

A long term test - Bristol Rovers. 3 Seasons.  

  

Not a world-beating team by any means. I wanted to test how pressing would work in LL.  

  

Using FM22PreachinBluesKnapLVercettiHB451 DOF/AM are in charge of everything not tactic related. Might have not been a great idea but we learn.  

  

Season 1  

  

Sky Bet League 2  

  

Comfortable winners 118pts, pretty much top for all stats. Light work.  

 

 

  

Season 2   

  

Sky Bet League 1  

  

Back 2 Back Promotions, 96pts, best goal difference. Once again a very solid season.  

 

 

  

Season 3  

  

Championship  

  

Not as great, the lack of quality caught up 36pts and relegated Questionable squad management going on, we have only 18 players in our squad and a ton of injuries, but hey thats the price you pay for letting the AI control this stuff. Maybe with a better rated DOF this would not have happened.  

 

 

  

Learnings 

  

Pressing still seems to work if you have the squad to rotate, even in Lower Leagues. I have no doubt we could have finished higher in the champ with a few decent signings.

Hi Knap.

Just to let you know I changed to 451 HB, and after a couple of games with it, its so much better. Even for all away games, not just top 4.

I seem to be having most joy from using balanced mentality. 

Thanks for your help.

[Corrosion]

I have a question regarding training a home tactic and then a different tactic and formation for away games. I apologise if this is in the wrong thread but could not find out what people were doing anywhere else. I want to use a Warrior 4222 at home and a PreachinBlues451 away. Obviously this involves switching the tactic regularly. So, should I leave primary trained tactic on PreachinBlues because I have used it as a single tactic and got it to Fluid on all bars or should I switch PTT to Warrior until that is full as well. There must be an optimal way of doing this, so I am interested to see what you guys do. Thanks.

[tyrell1017]

Hello Knap,

 

Which PreachinBlues do you consider to be better? HB or DM? Trying to find a reliable away tactic with Man City.

Can you link the 4-5-1 HB?

[knap]

@tyrell1017

Using a defend duty especially HB will make a tactic more defensive

[rogerdoger]

@knap

Would you swap IFs in 424 beta beowulf to IWs?

[knap]

@rogerdoger

I think they were in the Beta tactic,

[rogerdoger]

@knap

no, 22BETABEOWULFKnap424IFP105ECFA from top of aston villa test has IFs

[tyrell1017]

Should I leave the mentality on "Attacking" even in top 4 games? When playing the 451 HB

[knap]

@rogerdoger

Must be the FM22 Version P99 ALL CUPS

[knap]

@tyrell1017

Can try starting on cautious 

[Cobblers]

@knap - what tactic would you recommend for Dortmund?

Happy to also hear from anyone else who can offer some recommendations.

How are you finding them in terms of match performance + player development?

I'm still using the schedules with very minor tweaks with basically all my tactics. Players moan but I rarely get injuries and match performance seems to be doing fine. Development I haven't checked out yet

I'm still using them and they seem fine to me. Depending on who I am, I make slight tweaks to suit the style of play. They may need tweaking though, will be working out new schedules today. May post some that suits Knaps tactics as well

[stian]

@knap Recommend a tactic for Championship team?, like mid table/Sub-top.

[haikal78]

hi guys wanna ask recommended player / wonderkids  can play inverted wingbacks ??

[knap]

@stian

I would go with a set up you like. tTest results are not giving a clear picture as the PARIS 4231 P110 works well with Brentford.

I have your fm22 tactic document and the HUB west ham/villa test one, but at least the latter seem to be getting a bit outdated. Do you know of any more proper tests being done on your tacs with underdogs that are available?

I have a few Brentford tests
