FuSS Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Tactic Summary A return to the FuSS tactics of the past in this update - only tested with bigger teams, but makes the game silly easy! About The tactic is built on 3 key concepts (2 stolen form Jose, 1 from Pep) • Mourinho: The team that makes the least mistakes wins - hence the narrow, slow and short passing game. • Mourinho: An adaptation of his famous Trivote - 2 attacking midfilders that also harrow, harass and tackle, aiming to win the ball up the pitch, backed up by a supporting DM who fills the space behind them and creates passing triangles. • Pep: Possession for possession's sake is pointless - I don't use too many team instructions, I want the team to play a balanced and adaptable game, not be limited by a particular vision such as retaining possession or playing out from the back. Mentality I generally use control, but I've only tested with decent sides (Everton/Southampton), I've often gone attacking when chasing an extra goal. Be very wary of quick counter-attacking teams when you use control, I've found it's often best to step-up to attack against them, although there's nothing wrong with the standard setting! Team Talks Do them yourself, assistants are just rubbish at them, even the best assistants. • Be harsh! Ask yourself what the stereotypical Sir Alex would have done. • Before I match: I usually aggressively expect a result, followed by individually assertively telling them I have faith. • At half time: (even if my teams winning) if most of my team have below 7 performance I will aggressively tell them it's not good enough, those that don't respond to that (or respond badly) I will individually tell they were not good enough assertively. Opposition Instructions • I don't use them with one exception - if a particularly magnificent player is running a muck in the first 15 or so minutes I'll use them on him. Set Pieces • I'm awful at these, they're pretty much the default, I'm looking at tightening up defensive corners. Team Selection • DO NOT LET YOUR ASSISTANT MANAGER PICK YOUR TEAM - he will tend to pick AMCs in the wide positions, this will kill you, use wingers. Players • ST - Complete Forward (Support): This player will create space for the rest of his team by pushing the defensive line back and acting as a target man. Because of this you need a striker that's got good physical stats and fairly hard-working. • AML/R - Inside Forwards (Support): Despite being inside forwards these guys will still whip in a lot of crosses. They're also you're main goal scoring outlet. Traditional fast wingers that can also finish would be ideal. RECOMMEND WRONG-FOOTED PLAYERS (do not switch them to attack, they will not track back). • MCL/R - CM (Attack): Based on Murinho's famous "trivote", these two are aggressive, hard-tackling midfielders who can win the ball back high up the pitch and attack. You're actually after decent box-to-box players here (think Gerrard or Pogba). • DMC - DM (Support): Aggressive defensive midfielder, will look to attack the ball, break up opposition play, and lay off the ball to the midfielders. You need your typical DMC here, but the ability to actually play the ball will be useful (think Sven Bender or James McCarthy). THIS POSITION CAN BE SWITCHED TO DEFENSIVE FOR MORE DIFFICULT GAMES, BUT YOU'LL LOSE SOME LINK-UP PLAY. • FB's - FB (Support): These guys will get forward to cross and give you width. You need very good attacking and defensive fullbacks as you're asking a lot of them, Baines and Coleman are two of the best in the game. • CB's - Defender: Typical centre-backs there to defend the goalkeeper. Tackling, Marking, Heading, Jumping and some decent acceleration won't go a miss. • GK - Keeper: Handling, reflexes, command of area - one-on-ones is particularly important as this tactic often has it's fullbacks pressing quite high-up the field. Where to spend the cash Fullbacks are the most important position.

If you just want to win every match and make transfers then I suggest Fifa manager is the game for you Ho ho ho... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuSS Posted December 24, 2015 Author Share Posted December 24, 2015 Looks great, be interesting to see your team through the stages. Tactic looks awesome It is a VERY good team, hence I'm doing a quick click-through test with Southampton, who look on to win the title, but I'll upload this afternoon. I'm less convince by playing control with them though, but I can leave you guys with one setting to adapt I guess! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeesusChrist Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 It will only be deemed a successful tactic to me if it works with Curzon Ashton, I do admit almost 2 seasons unbeaten with not using the best teams is awesome! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, if a tactic works consistently in Vanarama North/South, it works everywhere. Unfortunately, we haven't seen such a tactic so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorgen Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 This really is a nice gift to get just before Christmas! Thank you , FuSS. I always try your tactics and those of Mr Hough and Mr Rosler, so I am very curious to see if I can replicate your success. In your test runs, did you try your tactics only on normal Football Manager, or on FM Touch too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDentalist Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I suspect a lot of the frustration in the delay of this tactic is due to the fact it looks so promising in the opening post and we're desperate to try it!

Sean Poe Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Hi FuSS, Using this setup with my Arsenal team as and getting good results. What sort of defensive line, closing down and tackling do you use, and what team shape? Ive got the shape set to flexible to transition between defence and attack, also have a normal line and, closing down sometimes, shoter passing and much lower tempo.Im playing around with 'pass in to space' as it's great for my front 3 but I don't really like it futher back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleR Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 It probably wasn't as good with bad teams That why he has not released it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Poe Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I've won 10 in a row half way through the first season with Arsenal, conceded twice and had three 5-0's using the formation and exact player roles the FuSS has posted. I know i've got a top team squad, but im still experimenting with the set up of the team instructions, so if its been tweaked and tested alot then I'm sure FuSS tactic is great for all teams. I'd higly recomend creating the tactic following the guidlines in the opening post, and then playing around with the team instructions to suit your team - Much more fun then just downloading and pug and play anyway!

QuickZombie Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Please can you post your setup? Can't make out the pictures on my phone while I skive at work.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Poe Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 All the player roles and formation are in the opening post. The pictures are all just screenshots of results, games etc I'm using - Srtandard mentality Flexible Team shape Normal defensive line Much lower tempo More closing down Narrow width pass into space No other instructions selected. Going to play around with defensive line now but i suggest you see what fits the atributes of your defence. Also going to try changing one of the CM positions to AP attack as I need to accomodate Ozil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
