Are certain attributes preferable for the regroup TI?

Done. Uploaded the wrong pic last time

Good thread. Started one today based on it after pondering. Early days though. Don’t get too many fouls like I thought I would. I set more crossing on PI’s and brought Poulsen in for his aerial abilities. 80 min upwards I’ll drop Counter and add time wasting, slow pace down and be more disciplined. Goals come from bother strikers and both wingers. Nothing else yet to report. I agree a lot with the last post, it’s not pure Route One. But I see enough of what I want to carry on.

Loads of “what ifs” depending on formations etc tbf. But generally due to players at my disposal (I rarely play outside of favourite teams) I usually go F9 with IFa and CMa or SS. Sometimes the striker and SS work better asymmetrical with the IF. However I have had success with an AF, I just go more conservative on the left and down the middle. It seems to even out with movement.

In a 433 I find an IF on A works as my second striker, especially with traits to cut inside/get in to the box etc. Or even an IW on A can work. Just make sure you have someone covering behind to support that side. Personally I like a Carrilero and then a WB/FB on support/defence.

As a general rule with Passing 10 or under I pass short, and 15 or more I pass more direct/more risky passes

Wondering if there are common denominator roles and duties people use in their tactics. And what instructions are your go-tos. Obviously we all have different formations. But do you live by certain rules? (Note this is control possession, so its not always attack attack attack when we have the ball). I want to know peoples opinion on things such as can you have too many playmakers? Ignore BPD? More success with a box formation as oppose to triangles? Always play out of defence, keep it narrow and work ball into box? Things like that.

Sounds like you’re playing a team comprising of Jimmy Saville, Gary Glitter and co.

Does setting a low/medium/high season bonus matter other than giving a few players a little more incentive?

I know it sounds a bit backwards in what I’m asking but it’s hard to describe. I want to create a tactic that is counter attacking but more patient with choosing their attacks (not necessarily less direct - I’m a big fan of my players making runs). Think David Moyes current type of style, but not sitting THAT deep and trying to be at least a smidgen of entertaining. My initial thoughts are mid block and possibly a 5-2-3, Narrow 433 or even a 442/4411. But open to suggestions. Generally I’m a fan of balanced mentality but I haven’t had much success on anything less than Attacking on this FM24. Any advice or tips would be good. Bosh Wants:- Not a low block Lots of dribbling No passing style preferred

What attributes should be noted for a successful "Roam from position" PI?

Every FM I try and make a 4141 (I don’t know why I just love the formation) work but I shoot myself in the foot as I hate lots of TI. I think I usually fail as I’m not keen going above positive either, but with that shape the mentality probably makes all the difference, whatever roles I use. If yours works that’s great. One assumes the 2 CM work well together otherwise you wouldn’t use them.

Re: ckeys I don’t understand which option I choose. Steam yes, but ultimately does it matter if I choose EU or WW? PC Steam EU PC Steam WW Multiplatform

Bring this back again @Catenaccio_In_FM23

Does the PI shoot more often work with Finishing or Long Shots attributes?
