Just out of interest if you set some on the tactics page before a match can you see them during a match if you select opposition instructions?

[FM 19 Wulf 41311 442 PF Pilgrimage 451,4141 442 and Flat 451 Knap]

Are pre done oi's being used tho? Whenever I test setting any oi's outside the match they never seem to be displayed on the oi page during the match.

Yes mate, 4141. Shouts are really important in this game again. Get creative and demand more need to be used. 

When would you use each shout? I've tried to find a guide to them but what info I could find often contradicts each other. Thanks

[Argus 3421 IF Knap FM19]

Only a minor tweak for fm20?? You see 343 as the formation again for fm20? Thanks

[Opposition instructions]

Hi to check I'm not doing something wrong I'm hoping someone can clear up what I'm probably doing wrong.

I've setup closing down always on defenders in the position section of the tactics screen opposition instructions section in between matches.

When I start a match and checked the opposition instructions, I click positions and nothing shows up for my preset oi.

I would have expected my preset oi to show up during a match but wanted to check.

Is it that my preset oi is being used but doesn't show or is it not being aplied for some reason? Thanks

Anyone lower league-ing on the lookout for a tactic should seriously hit up the TIME 4411. Played around with a lot of different styles, roles, formations and full tactics (self and downloaded) and whilst I was still having a 'good' season I didn't have that lovely 'confidence' going into a game where you know roughly what the result should/will be, felt very much like a lottery. I avoided 442/variants like the plague as I had no suitable MR/ML players (seriously struggle to believe how few natural wingers are even competent there?) but just sucked it up & changed individual training and voila!

I did make a few tiny tweaks (removed passing focus in possession, disabled offside trap, changed default mentality to cautious & increased attacking width by 1 notch) for anyone interested, and for SUS I change all backline to no-nonsense, move the MCL to DM as an anchor, set time-wasting to full, goalie in possession to slow pace, when possession has been lost to regroup & won to hold shape and then move both defensive line and LOE down two notches.

One thing to note is that it's often not 'pick tactic and win' even then, so for anyone struggling my general rule of thumb when playing with this team/tactic is;

1.) Start game with 'Cautious' mentality. Ass man often told me differently. Ass man was being true to his name (and is now sacked). Conceded first far too many times when going with attacking.

2.) After about 12 in-game minutes, monitor possession, if you're not >5% then drop mentality (that should be rare on cautious early on unless playing team from higher division). Monitor shots. If you're outshooting opp by a large number then change mentality up. If close/even change down, if being outshot then drastic change needed as you WILL concede. Don't go more attacking unless you need to - you can and will score goals with cautious, balanced and positive!

I usually don't need to change mentality after the original assessment (deciding if cautious is the sweet spot or change up etc) until the second half unless i score a lot of goals and 'poke the bear'. Some teams a re a bit more aggressive but generally i won't need to change too much until 60-75 minutes; If i'm playing badly i'll change/make subs early 60's, otherwise i'll wait until early 70's and take off anyone tired/on a yellow. If a close game i'll SUS if needed from 82-85 minutes. 

3.) Only ass man instructions i listen to is reducing tackling for anyone carded.

 

Won the Vanarama North in Season 1 along with the FA Trophy (the latter of which was against a team that finished 2nd in the league above!) and going gangbusters again in Season 2 with a vastly reinforced team!

Season 1;

 

 

Season 2 (so far);

 

Thanks Knap!

This is genius!! Been following this advice and doing scandalously good

The girrafin tweak Mr Hough?

[Knap - FM24 and FM23 FM22_FM 21 - FM 20 -FM 19 Tactic List]

Yes it's working knap thanks a lot. The defensive 442 was looking good with spurs

[Knap - FM24 and FM23 FM22_FM 21 - FM 20 -FM 19 Tactic List]

Looks good to go if so

[Knap - FM24 and FM23 FM22_FM 21 - FM 20 -FM 19 Tactic List]

Hi knap new to discord so please excuse the question. Where do I find your tactics on discord as all I can find is a big tactical discussion and not a lot else? Is there some sort of download section I'm missing?? Thanks

I've used it on a few MIDSOMER GOODBYE and the MU 4231, so may extend to others as no reason why DCBs won't work.

Whats the reason for the change to DCB's? Been trying this new pilgrimage and it seems so much better defensively for what seems like a good change that hasn't been used much so far

Using DCBs

!FM18.3.4KnapPILGRIMAGE343P108.fmf

Working great so far. Is this the new defence setup of choice with DCB's? Will you be applying this to new versions of WOF and ARGUS? Love all three as a set to use

[Pilgrimage 343 Knap FM 18]

You sir are a diamond

[Pilgrimage 343 Knap FM 18]

Which version did you change to standard jimtom? Thanks
