    But that doesn't actually talk about his attention to tactical management does it? As well as ignoring every other trophy he won. 

    Did I say he was a mongoloid when it came to tactics? No, I said that he wasn't tactically astute. You can't win all those trophies without having a grasp on tactics, but there were a lot of times he was completely dismantled by more tactically aware opponents. Like Barca in '07(?).

    He lacked the cynical traits that outdid United many times, especially in Europe. It became evident in his latter years (6-1 loss to City for instance).

    I'll take Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes views on his coaching, as well as the fact he mapped out the Barcelona game in training (yes that actually happenes, he and Carlos physically walked the players through their positions) as demonstration of his acumen. 

    3 decades at United and two CL titles. 3 decades with the greatest sides England ever saw.

    This isn't true. On the contrary Ferguson was tactically orientated, he just didn't micro manage heavily , with the Barcelona semi final being one of the big exceptions, where he and Quieroz basically mapped out the exactly positions he wanted them to fall back to. But that shouldn't be taken as a lack of tactical nous, he was very adept at reading sides 

     

    All of this is basically your opinion, not a fact. 

  4. Props to @goqs06 for trying this, I like the looks of it! However, lower D-Line? Not so sure about that, but still a nice effort.

    I do feel that @felley nailed it though. I was raised a Man Utd supporter and having read the books and watched countless of games, we have to say that Ferguson was not a very tactically oriented manager - with micromanagement on player movement etc. He let the players play freely and to their strengths = very few TI/PI settings. He would go crazy if players took too many long shots or missed obvious passing opportunities, but that doesn't always mean he worked the ball into the box for instance.

    For all the 4-3 against City's there were quite a few Basel/Benfica's also, demonstrating that Ferguson was first and foremost a very old school manager, relying totally on player form etc.

    Anyone else noticing that it is extremely difficult to win the ball back in this match engine. I have only watched comprehensive highlights and basically never see teams winning the ball back from any other situation but through some mindless pass attempt. Seen lot of really long passing chains without the defenders ever getting close to winning the ball back. 

    Yes, I am seeing this too. That, and a lot of set piece goals. And Giroud is better than Messi/CR7 combined.

    I am looking at players who to sign for my united save for the SV and he is on my shortlist, but I have just noticed that Dele Ali has perfect stats for the role.

    I'm testing a 4-2-3-1 with Inter now, slightly different to Cleon's, and the partnership with him and Dalbert on the left hand side is amazeballs.

    Just on the Volante, has anyone got examples in game that have the stats for it? 

    Turns out that Seb Rode of Dortmund makes a decent SV, but there are plenty of players with better offensive/attacking attributes as I believe the SV in the game would need.

    Taken into account that the segundo volante as we know it IRL is more of a Brazilian thing, hence the name, I'd find someone in the Hernanes anno 2014 mold and go from there.
