knap Posted November 14, 2017 433 Home and 343 Away? or 433 need a goal? I would say that would be a great way to use these tactics. Are you using a SUS as well? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knap Posted November 14, 2017 What level is that? Did you have any transfers and are you using the scouting packages? How much is it costing to use scouts. Appears to be a scouting problem! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUS refer to 3430 ? hard to use together with BM , because different set of strikers 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knap Posted November 14, 2017 SUS is a Shut up Shop tactic for late I game to hold onto a lead. Drop to contain and stop WB runs. I also use it if a man gets sent off. I would ignore the roles, the middle fwd is main striker the others can be say AML/R ST players. With injuries and suspensions can be a case of getting 3 best fwds available on pitch. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knap Posted November 14, 2017 As long as you don't use it too often, can be very useful. Often works well against very good opposition as a tactic. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unluckyluq Posted November 14, 2017 I love your tactic to FM 17 so I decided to try in this version aswell. 1st season was pretty good - easy 1st place. At the beginning of 2nd season I was very unlucky: shoulded win against Saints, Potters and Bournemouth - even against Arsenal I was very close. Sh** happens I'll test more and post results. Cheers! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rober82 Posted November 15, 2017 Well its been a great season, won the league with 17 points, and the cup. Could be better, but had to sell 3 top players in januray to avoid the red balance. But still, great tactic. Next up: Winning the CL with Rosenborg of Norway. That will be a test Im sure 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unluckyluq Posted November 15, 2017 Finish 2nd season: - 2 place in Premier League - lost Carabao Cup final vs City - lost FA Cup final vs United - some crazy results Very good tactic. I've just bought Tierney and Ruben Semedo. I'm thinking about one more CB and at least 2 good strikers (Milik is available). I'll probably sell Costa and Cavaleiro. Thanks for tactic! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unluckyluq Posted November 15, 2017 I think United was to strong. Now I'm focusing on buy some good CBs. If I improve defence I should easily win league. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Urotsukidoji Posted November 16, 2017 Thanks knap for amazing tactics. In my 3rd season as Blackburn manager finished runner up in the premier league after 2 successive promotions. Also won the fa and league cups. Only problem I foresee is if next patch destroys this tactic. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff49 Posted November 16, 2017 Hi, do you play all the season in « attacking - Fluid » or you have to listen your assistant every match? or maybe difference between home and away? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knap Posted November 16, 2017 I would never listen to assistant regarding tactics Attack all the way but a SUS tactic can be useful. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rober82 Posted November 16, 2017 Just beat Celtic 4-0 in CL 2 qual round at home. Won all games in the league so far. Will be exciting to see if the once mighty Rosenborg can upset the big clubs in the group stage again. So far so good with the 343. Considering using the 3430 to shut up shop in some games, but if this goes as i hope i might not need to. IMO the 343 is as good as last years 3430, on FM18 it works much better. You can use 3430 to win the league, but you wil win the games 1-0, 2-0 and so on. Much better to win 6-2 with 343! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knap Posted November 16, 2017 It is interesting to consider the pressure on AI back 4 with a 3430 compared to 343. When looking at a SUS I often consider changing to AMR/L to put pressure on AI FBs. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rober82 Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) Hmm, clever! The few times I`ve had to change anything so far, the odd time I watch a game, changing to wb support also helps. Edited November 16, 2017 by Rober82 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knap Posted November 16, 2017 With a back 3 wb s should work well, or drop them back to wb d , with a back 4 can use a defensive FB. There are a lot of options with a SUS. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knap Posted November 17, 2017 I've gone down to these levels in the past but found the game crashed when promoted to VS. Can you let me know if this happens with this database as nearly reached this stage.

knap Posted November 17, 2017 Must be tempting to tinker with attributes, and what happens when Real put in a bid! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaddyClay Posted November 17, 2017 It's been more tempting to tinker finances, since changing from amateur to semi-pro were losing more money each month due to now actually paying wages! On the players side of things at this level, i've only been looking for 2 attributes per position, I'm sure you can guess what i've been looking for in my forwards. Having only one country loaded at a time should hopefully stop the temptation of the big names. I've always wanted to do a bottom to top from the regional leagues but never had the patience to follow through with it. This year seems to be different. I'm playing the game so basically, that at the moment the enjoyment isn't fading. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knap Posted November 17, 2017 Watch scouting costs as this is becoming a major issue. Did you see the attribute table I posted, that also keeps the attributes at a basic level 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaddyClay Posted November 17, 2017 I did to be honest but i didn't pay much attention to it to be honest. Nothing against you (obviously as i'm causing havoc through the lower leagues with your tactic! Lol) just for this years edition im slowly trying to delve myself in to it deeper. Just learning more about each part of the game, tactics i've always struggled with the most so i'll be leaving that till last at the moment haha. Pace and acceleration, purely to create the space by stretching the opponent back, seems to work a treat alongside this tactic 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
