This is really amazing tactics, it open my eyes by reading all Cleon post. It help me to understand how to build the attack and defend in FM18.
It's help me to win a lot of match against the big team easily. The SV works amazingly good, he attack/defense/assist/score goals, making space ...
After using this tactics for around 35 match, I tweaked a little bit the team shape, and it look like this (see picture below)
- I dont use the AMC due to what I see in the game, AMC get stuck in the defense line of opponent and I want he stay deep when team dont have the ball for defense and moving forward not to much when team have the ball to create chance.
- When facing small team who stay back with 10 men, just need to modify defend line a little higher and slow down the tempo, it will make a lot of problem for them, just be patience and the goal will come.
- When facing a strong team, let the defend line natural or a little deeper.
- When facing the team who has strong winger like Arsenal or Manchester City, just need to ask LB/RB to defense
- When facing the team who like to use long pass for their striker, adjust the defend line deeper (and reverse, if the play short ball, adjust it higher)
I dont touch the mentality at all, but still the result is very positive compare to what i've done earlier.
What I understand is how important to break the opponent attacking system. If i break their way to attack, they will definitely make mistake and my team (with this team shape) will always find the way to score.
