[What to focus on improving this player ?]

So ive bought this little gem and im wondering where to focus imrpoving him.

He has good pace finishing and compsoure should i keep trying to improve these so hes world class in these attributes or would you concentrate more on his weaker areas like strength anticipation decisions etc.

Is this how you would improve other players ie focus on important attributes or focus on weaker ones ?

Many thanks

For anyone using Cerber V5 tactic - any hints and tips that you use ?

Also what are the most important attributes you look for in each position or do you concur with what TFF has with all his tactics on first page ?

Just wondered if for example your striker you will not use anyone with less than 16 pace or off the ball etc etc

 

Many thanks

Am going to play this season with Annihalator tactic.

I have signed Fernandinho who will  play as the DM he is a Model Citizen.

I have 2 wonderkids who play in the AMC role and I want Fernandinho to mentor them as hes a model citizen and they need better Determination etc.

Only problem is that Fernandinho has "comes deep to get ball" PPM and I don't want him to pass that on as it is a negative trait for this tactic in the AMC role.

What would you do ?

I may just mentor anyway and hope they don't pick up this trait as I think being wonderkids its better they get the mental stats up to fulfil their potential...

Thoughts please ?

[What to focus on with improving this player - help]

He has great attributes for a striker and is only 19.

Obviously pace is a concern - should I focus on his pace & acceleration in training or is this hard to improve.

His mentals ned a bit of work but my squad has good mentals and will mentor him.

So should I hammer his physical attributes and try to bring them up or would you focus more on technique or something else ?

[What to focus on with improving this player - help]

[how much can you improve physicals]

Found a great striker in brazil who has some really nice attributes.

hes 19 years old but unfortunately his physicals are poor.

He has a value of 9 in acceleration / pace / strength / stamina.

But has attributes of 16 in dribbling / finishing / composure / off the ball / anticipation / first touch / heading / jumping reach / natural fitness

Definitely gonna buy him but just wondering how much his physical attributes are likely to change if I specifically focus on them or are they hard to improve ?

Thanks

[The Unofficially Official Training and Mentoring Guide]

Apologies if ive missed this but if I want my Ass Man to take training and I will do the individual training - what attributes is desirable for an Ass Man to take training ?

I know you said earlier in thread ideally to have similar tactical preferred formation etc as you do, but what else attribute wise to look for to make him effective in setting training ?

it doesn't require a lot of effort at all OI literally take 30-40 seconds to set every game and this is coming from someone who's broken almost every record on the game, gone unbeaten in a season, won 74 games in a row, gone 30 games unbeaten internationally and won every international tournament, of course using TFF's old Raptor V4 tactic though he does deserve some credit for creating that tactic.

can you explain your process on how you set them mate ?

Also do you use your ass man to do anything or do you do everything yourself ?

Yes.  It's just the technical, mental, and physical attributes added up.  I keep track of the intakes like this for a couple of reasons: 1) to see how the intakes improve over time as the facilities improve and 2) to see what impact my Head of Youth Development has on the initial player personalities and if the players, through mentoring, change the initial personality.

Have you noticed any patterns with this ? - do you have a preferred personality for your HOYD ?

[Good Youth - Bad personality / Low Determination]

I have a pretty decent youth team player who is fairly professional but has very low determination of 4.

How do I rectify this, im assuming mentoring is the way forward, so does that mean I have to promote him to my senior team but make him available for under 18s and keep him there until his determination raises to an acceptable level ?

Or is determination of 4 just a waste of time ?

In this case his personality is decent, but if he had a poor personality but say good determination would the same apply and id need to promote for mentoring ?

 

many thanks

Hi TFF do you recommend any PPMs for your tactics and if so which do you find most important for position etc

[Youth Priority Attributes Help]

Love focusing on youth in my saves and just wondering when you are scouring the globe for young talent or bringing through your own youth academy players are there any specific attributes you prioritise.

IE if a player has great stats but has low in something will you avoid signing him ?

What attributes are an absolute must for you ?

Just trying to get a better understanding of how developing youths work and how to spot potential players etc.

[Caixa Futebol Academy: Youth Development & Adapting Tactics]

How do you go about getting affiliate clubs all over the world to supply youth players ?

Im on a save with Sunderland and am in the championship - nearly promoted to the prem.

Is this a feature that comes available when your reputation increases or am I missing something ?

[Size of youth squad]

Have been concentrating on youth players and signed a load fro my under18s.

Just wondering if having too many players in your under 18 can be a hinderance for playing time etc and whats the ideal squad size.....

[Foreign Youth Players]

4 seasons in on my welsh save and wanting to create a great youth academy....

Im trying to upgrade all the youth facilities etc but this will take time...

So ive been looking at youth intakes from foreign clubs like in france / Argentina etc 

However im always getting the same message that they haven't played in enough games to get a work permit etc and if I offer x amount they will then be ok.

However if I do this and offer over the amount once the transfer is about to go through they do not get a work permit and the whole thing collapses.

This happens every time - is their any way round this or am I destined only to be able to bring through welsh youth players...……...

[FM20 Tactics by TFF]

TFF - Just another big shout out to ya mate !!!!

Using Fighter in the welsh leagues. 3rd season in and just made it out of the group stages of Euro Cup 2. Tactics are spot on and make the game fun to play.

Am winning everything and knocking TNS off their perch.

One quick question - sorry not tactic related......

I cant scout outside wales and the option to ask board to extend scouting range is not available - will this come as my club grows ?

Also work permits - im scouting some quality talented youngsters but getting trouble getting work permits. Is it a case of if they need a work permit then don't even bother scouting them ?

[Fast Players and bringing through fast youths]

Im finding a lot of success with tactic im using with fast players.

If I want to bring through players through my youth academy that have high physical stats is it best to appoint a head of youth development that is professional with high fitness rating ?

[FM20 Tactics by TFF]

Using Fighter V2 and in my second season as Llandudno from Welsh league.

Fighter working brilliantly, I find using fast players very effective.

Just beat Spartak Moscow over 2 legs in 4th qualifying round of Euro Cup to get through to group stages (they are far superior team to us).

Great work TFF.

Quick questions for anyone on here who has experience with this......

Best countries to scout for wonderkid regens etc & if I want to bring through fast players into my youth academy do I select a Head of Youth development with high physical stats ?

Hey mate,

I've been saying that many times already if you want to get help from me regard your save then you need to send me your save after you finish the season and only in this case I can help 

Annihalator just didn't work for me.

Changed to Fighter V2 and its been an absolute revelation, cant stop winning - great tactic.

I think these kind of results are possible with tff`s tactics if you have v good players, here the stats are from third season and m sure he must have v good players, thats why the team is scoring a lot of goals.

I find that annhilator is a v good tactic, but you dont score a lot if you dont have v good players.

I am currently searching for a high scoring tactic to plug in with annhilator. For cups ill go for annhilator and to score loads of goals against weaker team ill go for a high scoring tactic.

 

TFF is there something in this ?

Like I said playing in welsh league came 2nd and strengthened and am now badly struggling and have gone 8 games without a win using Anhillator.

The calibre of players in welsh league are dire so is it just a case that these tactics wont work with poor players ?

Stick with Anihaltor and give your new players time to gel.

ok will give it a bit longer 

[FM20 Tactics by TFF]

playing in welsh league  got promoted to top division using cerber v3.

next season came 2nd to the dominant TNS and qualified for Europe.

Strengthened significantly and I hoped to close the gap on TNS using Annihalator.

Am struggling in 8th place out of 12.

Have tried Cerber V4 & Annihalator but nothing working.

Getting really frustrated now.

[FM20 Tactics by TFF]

TFF - Using Cerber V3 and like I said before great tactic for me.

One criticism and I think this has come up before but may well be out your hands...

Indirect free kicks - I seem to concede them by the bucket full. Just lost an important game (2nd v 3rd) 3-2 and all 3 of their goals were indirect free kicks.
