Baptista_8 definitely has a life size cardboard cut out of Jack Grealish in his room.

How did this turn into England?

Foden is some player already, just imagine when he hits his peak.

Yeah not like this happens with England.

I would like to know this as well.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this thread, always a pleasure watching the master work

Another cracking thread, I usually only play with narrow formations on FM, can a 4-1-3-2 be effective at counter attacking or would that struggle since there is no wingers?

Brilliant thread, I actually enjoyed reading it even though I play my games on commentary as I'm pretty poor when it comes to tactics. You can't be far away from a knighthood now

I would love to see this as well MeesterCat.

Thanks for the help llama, much appreciated mate.

Thanks llama, I will change all the player roles to the ones you mentioned as a lot of it makes sense now and this will stop me from changing the player roles constant. One last thing though, would I have both the wing backs on a attack duty or leave them on support if I am going to change one of the central midfielders to a attack duty?

I can't believe I have only just noticed this thread, great work btw. llama3 how would you go about setting up player roles in a 4-3-1-2, I can't seem to stick to the player roles I have chosen. I haven't been doing too good on FM lately so I just want to make sure I am set up the best I can and that should hopefully be half the battle on not doing too good. I would like to keep a Playmaker in the hole behind the strikers, this is how I am currently set up : GK - GK-D DR - FB-S DCR - CD-D DCL - CD-D DL - WB-A MCR - BBM-S MC - CM-D MCL - DLP-S AM - AP-A or TQ-A SCR - AF-A SCL - CF-S

Thanks mate, makes more sense now.

Is the team instruction Stand Off Opponents more suited to counter attacking tactics? I play a 4-3-1-2 Balanced - Control with Parma and I am conceding a lot of goals mainly through balls or long passes over the top, my team is pretty slow especially my defence so I selected Stand Off Opponents and it has seemed to have cut down the amount of clear cut chances against me but I seem to get dominated in every game. I have only used this instruction in 4 games so obviously my tactical levels aren't full now but I was wondering can this instruction be effective with my formation, or would I be wa

Does anybody know if the team instruction stand off opponents drops your defensive line deeper?
