Why does every tactic have either 2 DM's or VOL, there's literally none that have regular midfielders, is this the only way to beat the ME. My best midfielder is not a DM and in nearly all 4231 set up, there's no room for him, I shouldn't have to use the editor to add DM to be able to play him.
I have had a lot of success in retraining quality CM's and AM's to the VOL role. It takes a few months but they have always come good. I play in the Bundesliga so it has worked with the likes of Ouedraogo, Gaetano and Samardžić in different saves.
Not sure about the DM on Defend but maybe a good quality CB woukld work?

Heartbreaker 4231 is phenomenal.
Won the championship with hull 1st.
Finished 4th in premiership first season and won the EFL cup. Well done knap!
How did it do in defence? Fancy trying this in my save in the German 3rd Division but "Very Attacking" scares me a bit...

what annoys even worse is that SI always reply the same thing .... bad luck, bad options , blah blah blah. they never acknowledge something could be wrong
I know there has always been the thing of being "FM'd" but there seems to be legs in the idea of it now actually being a bug of some kind. I confessed it didn't seem any different to previous years but I am starting to see it now.
Interested to see if anything happens with it?

A few tactics have better lower league and tt test results. Maybe try WARPIGS 424
That's fine, I am in no rush to change from PSG112 as it is doing wonders for me! I was just asking in case any of these new ones were performing better.
I am going to have a look at WOF4231IWP339 though, thanks @Fribbe

Sorry, I have been off here for a couple of weeks, are any of these 4231 tactics playing out better than the Paris 112 424 ?

I have finally succumbed and started a Mannheim save using the P112 PSG 424. Held off until now as I didn't like the look of the 424 but thought I would give it a go.
Safe to say it is fantastic. Predicted 13th place finish but 20 games in to the first 3. Liga season and I am top by a clear 10 pts. Twice as many goals as the second place team and they are shared across a number of players, average of more than 3 per match. Still performing well with plenty of rotation. Second best defence in the league.
I can only imagine what this will be like with a top team (few seasons away yet). Bravo @knap

Thanks @knap This is the one I was looking at. Is it not a great formation this year? I cant see any other variations

Do you have an old school 4-1-4-1? I can only find the HGF which I have tried to butcher giving it an Anchor, MRL wingers, BBM and a CM-A but I have failed miserably

Thank you! Looks intriguing
Would the attacking mentality be a worry for a poorer side?

I am looking for recommendations from anyone for a fun new tactic (Knap, obviously) to use as I not been able to find anything that gives as good results as the ME23.1HGFKnapBALSP4231IFVOLArsenalP95ECFA.
Pretty poor lower team. Dont really like the 424's. Enjoyed the striker-less for a bit but the single pivots are just too unstable for longer term

I am really enjoying the 41230 due how fun it is, most league goals in all 4 seasons in Germany in all 3 leagues. However, I have been finding it really patchy with hammering teams one week and getting embarrassed the next.
Any advice on tightening it up at the back? Or is there maybe a 42220 out or in the works???

Is that the WHEELS OF FIRE 451 P102 EC CC?

No junior coaching refers to future newgens that come through the club. The same with youth facilities, both of those are ONLY used by future newgens. All visible players use training facilities.
Thank you for your help! I asked the board but apparently our budget is more than adequate and I have been told not to waste their time again

Oh, so it is just the budget? Is that so I can recruit more junior coaches?

Does anyone have any advice on how to improve my Junior Coaching levels?
I am at Gladbach and everything else is 4.5 stars but my junior coaching is 1.5.
I have 8 under 19 coaches and they are ok, nearly the best in the league by comparison so I am wondering if it is a facilities issue???

Is this tactic still working?
Its not bad at all to be honest. Only change might be that the goals from corners have dropped off quite considerably

Hey @knap
Is ME23.1HGFKnapBALSP4231IFVOLArsenalP95ECFA still ok with the new patch?
I'm still on my pre-patch save and seems fine but thought it would be good to check

knap thanks for responding!
DCR is scoring many goal from corners, yes.
In regular play, DCL is playing much worse than DCR. If I chose the player who previous game played DCR on DCL position, he will perform on DCL position much worse.
Average rating for DCR is 7.26, DCL 6.65.
Now I chose both players as DC and in the last 5 games DCL is averaging 6.8 (quite constant grades) which is slightly better, but at least he doesn't get 6.0; 6.3, etc...
What do you think could be the reason for it?
Interesting to hear others have the same issue as the one I raised. I have just left my poorer team and taken over at Gladbach so the quality of centre backs is much higher but I will be using the same formation to the one I used at Mannheim so it will be a good test.
One thing I wondered about is my formation has the DM double pivot with the DM - Defend in front of the LCB and the VOL - Support in front of the RCB, could that effect maybe?
0 -
@knap OR anyone who may be able to shed some light on this...
Centre Backs!
LCB - no real issue. steady ratings
RCB - if they don't get a goal or assist I am lucky to get a 6.5 rating. Usually 6.0-6.3
I am currently using ME23.1HGFKnapBALSP4231IFVOLArsenalP95ECFA to great effect, back to promotions in Germany but RCB is my major weak spot. I have tried numerous players, often by best centre according to the attributes but nothing changes.
Any suggestions? Or do I just ignore the ratings?

Has anyone else had any issues with the laptop fan since the last update?
I was ticking over nicely, using 3D highlights etc but ever since the last patch my laptop seems warm and the fan is constantly running high when the game is running. It might be coincidence but wanted to see if anyone else has had anything similar?
Also, any advice would on calming the fan down be most welcome.

The best tactic I have used this year has the been the 4231 with the 3 AM's on Attack. The only issue I have had with it has been the striker's goal return. Only two seasons from 10 or 12 has the striker returned 30+ goals. I get plenty of goals from elsewhere and with Union Berlin I won the League and Champions League double so I am definitely nit-picking but just wondered if I am using the wrong types of players. I have had high quality like Youssoufa Moukoko but he still struggled to get much in the 20's and the match ratings are often the worst in the team.
I might need to accept that it just works in a different way but I wanted to see if anyone has had similar or has any advice? Also want to avoid paying stupid money on strikers if it is not needed!
