dave byrd Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Hi there. The only domination using this tactic was from my opponents. Playing as FC Bayern: P8 W5 D1 L2. F16 A13. Just 1 clean sheet kept. Doesn't sound that bad but 2 of 5 wins were against a lower division side in the league cup and the other against rubin in the champions league. I conceeded 5 away at hoffenheim (they were 17th) and 3 away at mainz (15th). Losing 13 goals in 8 games is shocking for the best team in the league. I'd try the tactic for longer but i'd end up with the sack... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Hough Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 as i've been testing and playing around with things i've noticed that if you use the OI's the defenceive instructions that i have spacifficly set become ineffective so i can you not use the OI's thankyou Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFFJeff Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Just a quick update regarding this tactic, my team appear to be settling into it now after a few excessive draws initially.

Mr Hough Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 As i've already posted that i don't believe tactics should be tested in holiday mode as i feel that it don't give a true refection of how the tactic plays however i wanted to get through my season as soon as possible so i thought i would do it on the new tactic i am testing here are the results these are my results for the season and i started on holiday mode after the second uniria game the results aren't too bad i won the league and scored 95 goals concedeing only 29 i think that would have been better if i was managering myself Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigCisHere Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 tested it twice as AS Roma against Inter Milan. First time Inter went 1-0 up, had a player sent off and I scored making it 1-1 half time. Team then capitulated and I lost 3-1 against 10 men. Second time Inter had a player sent off, then my team capitulated again, conceded 2 goals to go 2-0 down, before Inter had another sent off to go to 9 men, and still I couldn't score. Seems like a nice tactic though, and I will definitely try it out again some time, hopefully with better success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kawee Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I have to say...this tactic at first sight, looks extremely ridiculous. I have no idea how or why it works, but it obviously does work for a lot of people. I'll give it a shot myself tomorrow. Your tactic could really help me improve my own current tactic. Cheers.

StevoRobbo Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 @FFFJeff. I am playing in a super league though so this could be why its not working. Ive just changed back to my original 4-1-2-1-2 formation to see if this fixes the problem. If it does then im affraid this tactic just isnt working for me. I'll keep you posted Edit. First game using my normal tactic and a good 1-1 draw at home to top of the league Inter Milan I had Adler, Brown, Evra, Ferdinand and Rooney out injured and my stand in centre back criscito got injured during the game so not a bad result with a 2nd string back 5.

Kawee Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 ok kawee thanks for your comments, but i'd like to know why you think it is ridiculous if you don't mind elaberating? I mean no offense. The reason why I said at first sight it looks absolutely ridiculous is because it goes against everything everyone has said about how to play the game successfully. We were told, were we not, that if we want to break team down, especially as one of the better team against a lower side, that we should play: - Wide: to stretch the defense - some Roaming: to also stretch defense and keep things unpredictable - high CF for our attacking players: They're the World-Class players so they should be allowed to do what they think is right, and keep things unpredictable The slow tempo & short passing combo I can understand because that's the best way to play possession football. However, the three things I listed above is the opposite of what you've done. That's why I said it looks ridiculous. But it works. I know it works because others have used it and it works, and I've tried it and it works, amazingly enough. I just don't know how or why it works. So congratulations on creating such a good solid tactic I won't be using your tactic simply because I prefer working out my own one, but yours definitely sparked some ideas on how to improve my own, so thank you. And this tactic definitely shows another beautiful side of FM (or not, depending on how you look at it.) Just when you thought you knew what should be done, someone goes and surprise you just like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
