crazyscotsman Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 Spanky: thanks for the feedback. Just a note: with most tactics it takes 10 _ 15 games for the average squad to get used to a new tactic set. Also, Out of 8 games you've only lost one - I would consider that decent?? Originally posted by Spanky:With this set of tactics, played 4 home games, won 2, drawn 2 - played 4 away, drawn 3, lost 1. Quite poor. Heavy favourites for each game, should be getting promoted but stuck mid-table. Disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grubbybear Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 im having a mixed bag of results as aston vills bought van de vaert as my amc managed a 3-0 away win against birmingham but then suffered 2 2-1 defeats at fulham and home too derby Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysafc Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Working very well with both Vauxhall Motors and Sunderland for me. You must be prepared to change. The home tactic does not work strickly at home and the away one away. As Crazyscotsman has said watch the first 15 mins, if it's not going your way then change to the other. Thats what i do and it often swings the game in my favour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Top-Dogs Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Was stuck in a bit of a rut, lost 3 games in a row (one of them 5-1!). Given this tactic its first go against top of the table Real Madrid and won 5-1! So far so good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzler1992 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 This tactic in working superbly in my QPR game, first season. Top of the table in January by about 10 points. Got knocked out of the League cup by West Ham but wasn't really expected to win that game so it's fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrEdwierd Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 So, if at home im getting less chances than the opposition i should change to what? Or if im getting lots more chances away i should change to? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysafc Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 So, if at home im getting less chances than the opposition i should change to what?Or if im getting lots more chances away i should change to? So long as Crazyscotsman doesn't object to me answering for him... at home if getting less chances change to away. If getting lots of chances away the don't change. If the goals don't arrive then change to home. These changes work for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEdwierd Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 So not change to attack if you're getting a lot of chances? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyscotsman Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 andysafc _ many thanks! DrEdwierd: The tactic set is just that a set, i have name them home, away, attack, defend and sus. The way i usually play is that if I am home and favourite i will start with teh home tactic. I watch the possession percentage upto the 15 minute mark. If I have the better percentage of possession I will leave the tactic as is if my opponent has better possession I will change to one of the other tactics in the set. Just because the tactic has a specific name does not mean it has a specific function. Another example: if I am home and playing a much stronger team in the cup I might start with defend or even SUS. Usually I will also switch a couple of times between tactics throughout a match depending on what is happening. Don't be afraid to experiment!!! The tactic set works well as a set once the players get used to it. Originally posted by DrEdwierd:So not change to attack if you're getting a lot of chances?

crazyscotsman Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 I know that Portugal and Denmark, Van Gall, Koeman have used this formation and I believe the current England coach used it when he was with Real Madrid - I like it as it gives you plent of attacking and defensive option along with having 4-5 lines of players compared to other tactics 2 or 3 Originally posted by Golden_Team:I think portugal last night using this formation petit was defensive mid. moutinho as more offensive MC, and deco was on free role Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly I didn't put much effort into it, as I'm still enjoying my 07 saved games. Will give your set a try and let you know how I get on. I'm in my 5th season, took 3 seasons to make it into the prem league, finishing top half 1st season.

MuSTaKa Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Congratulations on this nice set, Crazyscotsman! On away games I personally use the defensive tactic with a bit of tweaking - I set all my midfield and my striker's closing down to the highest level and they give the opponents no space at all and my team is constantly on the attack. Note that you need players with good physical attributes + good decision making in order to keep your tactical discipline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
