  1. Another question popped up while i'm at work - what else to do that speculate over what to do in football manager when i get home?!

    If im going up against a really good team ie Bayern Munchen or Man City (that i have drawn in ChL) how would you go defensive with this?

    The other games I have played i turn all front 3 to defensive and made the AP into a DLP for a more holding role and then hope for counters. Other than that more direct passes and pass into space still, even tough I removed it from the normal tactic.

    I have my tactic with Man Utd setup like this.  It works really well.  It's a 4-1-4-1 with craft Defensive Midfielder.  :)  I have Overlap on both sides, slightly shorter passes while still passing into space, but honestly you don't need to.  I could probably still not pass into space and be fine.

    I'm playing Wider offensively stretching out the defense, higher tempo with low crosses to create more chances.

    Defensively I have decent Full Backs that can 1 on 1 alot of wingers so I can play extremely narrow in the back and basically be a pinball machine to their shooting.  I also don't need "Play out the back" instructions cause it's done automatically with BPD's. :)  I don't normally do extremely tight marking just in case one of my players gets beat by speed demon forwards.  I still do Get Stuck In.  Sure I get a few more yellow cards, but it's worth the price you pay.

    It's worked well for me.  I beat Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal and only lost two games this year so far.  About 30 games in my first season.

    Glad its working for you, I dont believe that my central defenders and dms are strong enough to handle that many defensive duties, only 3 players. But will save this SS and maybe try it out in the future when I develop the team more or is starting a new save.

  3. Thanks a lot for the responses. I've returned this evening after a good day of work away from the game, think i needed that after a very frustrating sunday :lol:

    I have ended up with this after reading the responses and started out with a few tweaks when i opened up the game:

    The team are creating a lot more chances. I think I have been quite unlucky conceding a few long shot goals in the last 10 minutes of the game for a draw or defeat.

    I have been playing with a HB on the dm position, but have changed that now to hopefully counter the fact that the opposition have been getting some good shots in from outside the box.

    The best par is that Havertz have been performing way better in the system, which im glad to see because its needed progress, since I started out building the tactic around him.

    Again thanks for the help and the inputs.

  4. I'm about to give up and just download some tactic.

    I made the changes and still no succes at all. Other than I started great with a draw against Dortmund and a 1-0 victory over Munchen after i reloaded from the season start.

    After that the results have been horenderus. In the last 5 games have i made 1 goal in open play and 1 goal from a penalty. The only game that the tactic showed potential was a 4-2 victory against Shaktar, where Bailey made 2 goals at the backpost, after crosses from the left where the defense was pulled out of position.

    I went for the MEZ on support option paired with an AP on support on the central midfield. I have tried making the MEZ attacking and the other MC as DLP. But none of the options really created any chances offensively.

    I'm honestely pretty lost and don't know where to begin to fix this tactic. The distance from my midfield to the attackers just seem to big and the players are having trouble getting the ball up field.

    First, kudos for not going crazy with TI's!

    I'm not a fan of short passes and pass into space combo.  

    Where are you trying to get space/overload from?  Are you getting overlaps from your DL?  It would look like you would be building up left, to free up your attacking IF on the right, if so perhaps tweaking the BBM to a MEZ or CAR in support, both will bring more overload to your left with the CAR being the more defensive minded player.  Creating that overload should free up space for your PF and IF to operate in, with the PF being a "short pass" option and the IF being a "far post" option.

    Thanks a lot for the respons, i will give that a try.

    I opted away from looking for overlap on the left, since i felt that would be overdoing it. But would you recomend trying that too?

  6. I just feel like getting more and more frustrated. The only teams I've had succes with until now are the big teams like Manchester City, where it seems like every tactic work.

    As soon as i go outside the top teams, im really struggeling.

    I am therefore seeking some advice for my Bayern Leverkusen tactic.

    This is what i currently looks like. I have tried a few different roles, mentality etc.

    I just cant seem to create any real chances.

    My idea was to play out of defense, and let Havertz find the offensive players with his passing and vision, when they are making the runs.

    I have some PIs:

    Shoot less often on my FBs

    AML: Mark tighter, Close down more, sit narrower

    AML: Mark tighter, close down more

    I wanted to let my front 3 close down a bit more, but still keep the structure of the rest of the team when we are out of possesion.

     

    Hope some of you clever guys in here can help me a bit 

  7. If playing a 4-4-1-1 counter formation, What are the best roles for the AM and Striker? Currently set to AM = AP(s) and the Striker is set to TM (A)

    Will the players still pump up long balls to the TM though? i would rather keep it on the deck and play through the midfield and hopefully keep possession!

    In the team instructions in the tactic screen, if you tick the box at targetman, you can chose "none" in the dropbox below. Then the tactic doesnt use any targetman, the player is just instructed to play like one, as far as I understand. Hope that made sense? :)
