Wrong tactic choice

 

Tottenham's 2022/23 season simulated after January transfers and big changes were made (msn.com)

Speaking of Spurs, what's the best tactic for them to start the game with? Obviously signings will be made anyway but as a starting point what do you think?

Hey Knap,

Is this one not just Blue - ZaZ?

Also, the Arsenal P99 433 got me wins as Spurs against Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea & PSG, however I lost to Burnley, Newcastle and Everton. Any idea why this is? It's almost like it's only good against good teams, and against lower rated opposition, just doesn't work at all.

 

Cheers.

Top tested tactic on various test leagues. P99 with Arsenal is above anything else I've seen.

Which tactic is it you're talking about? Could you link this?

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

Hey @knap which 3 at the back formation would be best for Spurs?

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

Has anybody had any success with West Brom at all? If so, what tactic works best?

Have you maximised loans as that normally helps.Maybe KINGSTONIAN Away tactic. The Warrior 442 is current top underdog.

I've got Arsenal as my senior affiliate, they want the majority of their players to play with a higher quality. I'll try those two! Thanks.

Morning Knap,

I've had back to back to back promotions with AFC Fylde, currently sitting in League 1, but my squad is terrible and I'm media predicted to be relegated. I've always been the favourite up until now. What would be a good underdog tactic for a League 1 side? @knap

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

@knap What would you recommend for a mid-table League 1 side? Thanks

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

Hey Knap. 

I asked this a few weeks ago, and you said all of the tactics work for Non-League saves. Have you released anymore tactics recently that would work especially well for LLM?

I'm currently alternating depending on opposition between FireAndWater41212 and Beowulf442. 

Results seem to have tailed off recently.. wanting to give something else a crack. 

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

Hey guys, 

Just wondering if anybody has had any success with Vanarama National League teams with any of these tactics? I know the majority of tactics are generally engineered to teams in the top division. For reference I'll be starting as AFC Fylde.

Correct. You can create this tactic easily, starting with a standard 4-4-2 and step-by-step tweaking roles and duties. In the second year you will dominate.

We're not talkin about a very absurd tactic like a 4-0-6 or a 1-2-4-3, something that NO ONE would do IRL. We are talking about a very easy to achive 442

Incorrect. Somebody copied the tactic without the specific player instructions and it was nowhere near as effective. There are thousands of combinations with formations, team instructions & player instructions, you wouldn't just begin with a simple blank 4-4-2 and within a year 'dominate'. A player instruction as simple as 'stay wide' or a team instruction as simple as 'mixed crosses' could be the difference between an average tactic and an overpowered/exploit tactic. 

If it was 'easy' to create a tactic this effective based off of a 4-4-2, then nobody would bother coming to these types of forums to download Knap's tactics in the first place.

The reason we're discussing this specific tactic is because Knap, and other tactic creators have been making tactics for as long as I remember, with the sole purpose to exploit the match engine to produce a 'plug and play' tactic for players that don't want to grind and put absurd hours in. 

 

For the record, I couldn't give a monkeys whether it's too hard or too easy, I enjoy it nonetheless. I also download tactics myself and enjoy Knap's work. 

 

Some players are better than others, that's fine. However I'm unsure why you'd come to a forum to complain it's too easy when you're downloading tactics that have proven to be overpowered. If you believe it's an issue, like people have suggested previously, start a thread in the Bugs Fourm and upload your save. 

 

Have a nice day.

Has anybody found consistency with any tactics yet for a club like Leicester? I went from walloping Real Sociedad 7-1, to the next Europa League fixture losing 5-0 to Dynamo Kyiv. Everything seems wild. 

 

Most of the tactics are being tested, retested and then tested again by people managing United/Barca and signing Haland - doesn't quite give realistic expectations to anybody else using it! 

 

I've tried TeaForOne & FireAndWater with Spurs & Leicester. Floating around the Top Four. Anybody had any success?

In FM20, you didn't know what kind of Brexit you were going to get as IRL it hadn't yet been decided; there was also a chance of no Brexit at all.
You might have got lucky and not had a Brexit or a 'soft' one.
This is not the case in FM21 and everyone managing English clubs will find it difficult

Is Brexit the exact same for everybody in FM21? I had one saying I could register 17 foreign players which seemed absolutely fine? Getting work permits seemed to be OK after the initial appeal. Wish there was a toggle to remove it though, I don't play football games to have real world implications negatively impact my experience.

Have to reiterate how good this tactic from FM20 is on the beta. Won the domestic treble first season with Dortmund and went unbeaten in the league all season until Bayer Leverkusen scored a  header against me in the last minute of the last game. 2nd season running clear again at the top of the league and just Beat Chelsea 7-1 and Atalanta 10-0. Really hope it works as well upon full release but I doubt it.

Hey man - what does the formation look like in game please? At work and can't check! 

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

Anybody had any success with Leicester? If so, what tactic would work best for them? 

At work currently - setting up my game later!

Hello, 

It's kinda confusing reading through all the comments to figure out which tactic works best? Now starting as Strasbourg in France.. could anybody point me in the right direction for tactics that would work? @knap

 

Thanks

start every game with Cerber v3 and if you need/can push more switch to Fury v1

When you say push, you meant drawing/losing and needing a goal? So it makes it more attacking?

 

Cheers

[FM20 Tactics by TFF]

Afternoon TFF, 

Just a quick one, it may have been asked before so apologies in advance. 

I'm going to start a Spurs save later, going to use Cerber & also Shield Wall for when I need to hang on to a result. Is there any tactic recommended for away games/tough games vs Top 6? Or any instructions to be changed?

 

Thanks

Appreciate uploading this mate. Gonna' give it a try. Having moderate HOME success with BlackEcho but really struggling away. Tea for One just isn't cutting it weirdly. Think this system will work well with Norwich?

Which tactic is this sorry?

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

@knap Is Tea for One 4411 better than Black Echo 4132 for Norwich, would you say? Currently sitting 11th with Black Echo using Norwich myself.. just seen @Cwieku finish 3rd on 77 points using Tea for One 4411.
