[First Time Tactic Creation]

Cheers

I had tweaked the midfield 3 to be: -

BWM Su + DLP Su + BBM Su

As these roles suited my three players best according to their ratings

 

The front two are now AF At and an PF Su

 

I'm currently in the first half of the Under 18s match and 3-0 up but that's like being happy that Liverpool are 3-0 against the Eastbourne over 90s last 11.

I went back to the drawing board and decided on a slightly new approach. Below is the untouched base, it's the same principle in terms of one midfielder is either an MC / DM C or AM C depending on how adventurous I'm feeling. Time to start tweaking

Bradford - Standard 

 

Bradford - More Attacking

 

Bradford - More Defending

Thanks for the replys.

I did think about all those rules, they were put there when I selected "Route One" or "Park the Bus". I've not set them myself and I'm not fixed on them so can drop them.

My idea is: -

Standard = Most matches - keep the ball, work it up to the target man.
Attack = Cup games against lower league opposition or change to this if we need to nick a goal and a 1-0 loss is the same as a 20-0 loss i.e. cups
Defend = Cup games against significant higher league oppositions or we're winning 1-0 but getting battered with possession / chances when you know a goal is coming

I've tried to keep the core the same so I'm only moving either 1 or 2 players to change style.

 

I'd like us to be solid at the back, keep possession and work the ball up to the target man and a poacher who'll scurry around the area getting flick ons etc
I have changed the two MCs as Bradford best two Midfielders (and important players) were far better as 1x BBM and 1xDLP in the MC slot

I've decided to try and create my own set of tactics to use as I usually end up downloading load of "the best tactic ever" and "unbeatable" and then realise you need Man City / Liverpool or Real Madrid to win with them or come with requirements like "needs god like AM(C)" which, sadly my team Bradford City do not have,.

What I am trying to do is have 3 tactics that I swap between, one standard formation, one more attacking formation and one "batten down the hatches this is gonna hurt" formation. The positional differences between them is slight: -

i.e.
Normal Formation - > Attack formation = DM is subbed and changed to an AM
Normal Formation - > Defend for your lives formation = P is subbed and changed to another DM

 

I've dropped images of the formations below. Will this idea work? Any tweaks that could improve my chances of turning Bradford City into a world super power?

 

The first season may need some loanees to cover the areas i'm short in but I can dump all my wingers and get some money in to buy some talent.
