As a big fan of counterattack, I'm waiting for it!

IMO changing IWB to FB or WB for sure.

Yes, maybe gegen is broken and it's probably the easiest way to succeed but... it's still a game and everyone can play in their own way. It depends on your expectations for the game.
Let's start with the fact that players who don't work aroud the football in real life can win the champions league in three seasons with a club started in the Championship. Is this real? No.
Personally, I lose motivation when I win repeatedly and the results are unreal. That's why I love counterattack styles in FM I prefer to lose/draw a few matches in a row and then win in the way I want to play with boys who suit to my tactics (E.g I love "basque style": brave and hardworking players who sacrifice for the team and build the team around them).
However, losing can be frustrating and the computer games should rather allow you to relax. You can feel the same satisfaction by winning every match and signing best wonderkids from downloaded shortlists OR by making some small tactical tweaks, look for the right players for your style and make the game as difficult as possible.
If you're playing a single career, play by your own rules. What will give you more satisfaction?
Cheers mate!

Fluid counterattack?

Hi, thanks for all your inputs and advise. Unfortunately, I have a very limited time to play but I menaged to test several solutions in the preseason and a few league matches.
I found bdalance in the TM(a) + AM (a) + AM (s) and Target Man works great. SS (instead of AM(a) also was good but his impact for game was something different what I expected). However, things happens and my striker is injured for 5 months.
I changed the formation to 2strikers: AM(s), PF(a), AF(a). I have to wait for the result.
Cheers!

Hi folks,
[FM23]
I'm trying to create something new for me - 343 formation but the final third is a hard nut to crack for me because of the players I have in my team. It's mostly bout: how to utilize Target man and AM(su) it this setup.
ACM L my POV is Shadow Striker here. I have 2 very good players but they have some shortcomings that discourage me from using this role. The idea is that ACM L is the most forward one and attacks from deep on the field.
So maybe Trequartista?
ACM R is born to be AM(su)
Another way is to play 2x ST and 1xACM
AM + TM + Poacher/AF/PF (a)?
Formation (it's only outline):
I want to utilize my top TM who is top header and two WBs with their great crossing skills.Cheers!

Look at your training schedule and plan some training units containing "Tactical familiarity: Creative freedom" (e.g. Match preparation -> Teamwork).
Maybe you changed something in your tactic that automatically lowered familiarity in this aspect?

If he's everywhere then box2box but I always saw him as mezzala

Hi Johnny! How do you see the setup with the Raumdauter? I think 433dm has great potential for this role and I am curious about midfield area + opposite winger in a simple way.
Cheers!

I'm thinking about Real Madrid this year. They changed tactics from 433 to 41212 (diamond). Vini and Rodrygo's at the front, and Bellingham on 10 "mediapunta". I think Jude is an pure AM but I have a problem with two brazilians. Should they be positioned in the wingers' or strikers' zone? As wingers they could be IF, W (Vini) or Raumdeuter/W/IW (Rodry) but there would be no one in the middle (Jude is not SS). If in the striker zone: Rdrygo would be good as F9 or T but what role for Vini then? F9 + T setup? I don't see Vini as a pure striker.
There is great quality in the midfield area and everyone could play different roles on the pitch.
How do you see Real Madrid tactic for this season in FM?
Jude Bellingham - 2 games, 3 goals. Maybe he's a Shadow Striker though?

This time, lets have a look at a 4-3-3 DM without the Wingbacks
This is sort of from my own save, the Youth Academy Challenge, basically we were left without wingback options and had some great options in centre midfield
Starting from the back, two straight forward Central Defenders on Defend, there's no problem with it but I don't think there's a great need to use BPDs when they have the DM as an "outlet"
Two Fullbacks, one Support, one Attack
Now, my great midfield options include a Mezzala, a fantastic role in a 4-3-3. Looking at his Personal Instructions, its a role you're telling to get forward, look to get on the end of and create attacks in the final third
I spoke earlier on about if one of the 8's burst forward, it can create gaps and disjoin in your midfield 3, I'm really not a fan of when that happens so I like to use a DM on a higher mentality to "plug the gap"
As we're now using Fullbacks instead of Wingbacks, I feel a lot safer doing this as Full backs will not be surging forward and looking to carry the ball, they won't be so wide. Full Backs may tuck in, hold up the ball and be more likely to look for players infield, they help to keep the team as a tighter unit. The Defensive Midfielder on Support will now be a bit more forward thinking with his pass choice so attacks can be built from deep a little more effectively
The Mezzala will be looking to make runs into the outer inside channel, I don't particularly want my left sided wide attacker looking to come infield, I want him providing some width on the left side and keeping the opposition full back over there occuppied
On the right hand side, my creator/scorer role so an Inside Forward on Support will provide just that. We do lack width on the right hand side at times, but the FB and IF do a pretty good job with that between them
Then upfront, down to my personnel and because there's a lot going around him, a Poacher here will do the job to do little else but sniff out the chances and finish them off. I don't need him dropping deep, roaming, creating or anything else but score
With fullbacks, you can keep the ball better, they're not bombing forward, dribbling wide and crossing all the time, the FB's PIs are so simple, they're great for possession based tactics
Because we've cut the offensive threat from our Wingbacks, we ask one one the centre mids to break forward. He supports the Poacher from the left, the IF supports the Poacher from his right, we still have plenty of other roles to offer supply and score goals. It's breathtaking when you're on the attack and all of a sudden your FullBack on Attack pops up into space on the edge of the area and rifles one in
Very straight forward and logical, again, nothing ground breaking here but for people that are new to game and are struggling, sometimes stripping back to the basics can help figure things out
Hi Jonny, thank you for this topic! I'm a big fan of simple solutions, after years of making FM more complicated than necessary.
Does your CM have "Hold position" set in PI's if DM is on support duty and fills the Mezalla gap?

Inspiring!
What about TMsu instead of AFat? This should work fine with SS and could help in the def phase

Hello,
First of all - why are you playing 343?
The wingback position is crucial in this type of tactics (343, 352) for me. The player should be one of the best in my team.
Zoungrana - do you have a good midfield alternative for him? Maybe its not worth it.
Mohammed - if we look at age and potential, he has a chance to be good enough in the future - ofc with proper training.
I'm a big fan of position changes (if necessary). The essence of being a good manager

Howdy!
I want to start a new career with one of the Spanish B clubs in 3rd division (and through the experience gained in the reserves and other clubs take the position of the head coach senior team in the future.
I wonder if the coaching staff should be very good at youth development? Or should I to focus on other attributes? After all, some players will be under 18 and some over (19-21).
The second thing is training. Should it be planned as for seniors or for juniors? Or maybe training as for seniors but with more rest? I want to focus on players development and providing "canteros" to senior squad but main focus in the 1st season will be promoted to second Division.

Why do my players press CD's and even the GK when I tell them not too?

Can you post a gif/animation with the situaion you're describing?
Is it pressing or maybe cutting the passing line (attempts)?
