Highest scoring tactic is KASHMIR 4123 191 Goals and is similar to the 451  and may work if the better side against a 442.

 

Thanks, Knap. Appreciate it.

@knap I find the 442 and 4411 hard to break down when the computer deploys it. This is when using the 451, particularly ME22.4KASHMIRKnap451AFCWBIFP101ALLCUPS.

I still tend to win but I was wondering if there another tactic better suited to defeating the 442/4411?

Thanks

So, I dabbled in U21 management for Sweden. This was the first game. 

Anyone seen 75...yes...SEVENTY FIVE shots at goal

Could be on for a record here. Last three matches have been double figure scorelines. I know their teams aren't the best.

I'm using the 5.4.1 FireAndWater 4321 as my base. I'm still trying to find good tweaks for consistent away performances.

Currently playing with match to match small tweaks like cross type, work into box, switching player positions. As a few posts have eluded to it may be hard to switch entire formations between home/away due to cohesion.

Also OIs, playing with these, too. I'm Man Utd and England so I'll be quitting both and taking jobs at smaller clubs to really understand what does and doesn't work. 

As a pointer this tactic in another save has got Sheff Utd to 2nd place first and second season. 2nd season was by goal difference to Liverpool (91pts). Lys Mousset was deadly.

FireAndWater still performing terribly for England

this one has less PIs

this is the most updated version...both work great, i'm currently using the first one. 

please do try other tactics from Knap though, with correct players and situation, you'll get good results...this tactic feels more universal as i've tried it with top teams and poor teams

@RDF Tactics

I've noticed that the right and left backs don't have the same PIs. Any reason for that?

Left back has sit narrower and RB doesn't. Just want to know if it's an oversight.

I used the Float cross version you were playing with a while back and came second with Sheff Utd first season and then came second again in the second season on GD with 91 pts to Liverpool!

Is float crosses best for lesser teams/when crossing is not a strong stat for your wingers wing backs?

Final question, for "hard" away games, or just away games in general, do you still adjust width, get stuck in, switch to cautious, lower DL? All depending on opposition?

Work ball is on. The problem tends to be options and the AI man marking your players leaving few options.

Thanks @knap appreciate the explanation!

Any experimenting with CBs on Shoot Less Often?

I started checking out the sources of my shots and sometimes my CBs are having 15+ combined attempts. I'm sure headers are included BUT looking at the shot map it's normally half at least from outside the box!

Who said you cant win anything with kids? Won the league with Bournemouth with average age of 22!!!! 2nd season complete, with the 20yr Championship striker i bought for 6.75mil being my top scorer. 

Amazing work!

I followed your thread when you use the 4-1-3-1-1 Tequila Sunrise formation and noted with interest your tweaks for away games, home games, hard, easy etc. Mainly involving tight marking, get stuck in, width and d-line.

I used that to good effect with Milan. I am now using Fire and Water in my third season and wanted to know how you approach the big away game with this tactic.

I've implemented a similar approach but I've noticed the tempo is much higher in F@W, as well as width etc. 

 

any further points for getting the best out of away games against tough teams?

Is this got more creative freedom? I'm Napoli and see insanely good possession stats but I could have like 1 or 2 shots against good teams.

Do you change the Mentality (attacking, positive, balanced, etc) as the games go or do you just play as it is?
