Heazd Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 game 16 as i continue, versus liverpool screenshots of match overview vs liverpool 3-3 (their 3 goals come from coutinho get the ball on my right flank). So when they pass the ball to coutinho on right flank, my wb position often not in line to defend as he is often get overrun by coutinho. coutinho position often get behind my wb position making him easily get the ball and run the ball with it. Then i continue on to 2 matches vs brighton away (arsenal won 0-2) and burnley home (arsenal won 6-0) I think the tactic on 18.2 is already good, maybe a little bit of tweak while defending. as my right and left flanks can be vulnerable when vs team such as liverpool who focus their attack on both flanks. many fouls too from my side. on the positive note my striker got 5 clear cut chances I shall wait after fully tested Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heazd Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 just want to update of wof343. For me Vol3 is better than Vol4 with Vol4, my team was playing a bit off as I used to watch my team playing. with Vol3, my team was playing with what I am used to but much better. Both Vol3 & Vol4, I have been training my players for the right position training Thanks Knap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Scout Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Hey Knap. I am using your WOF 343 vol4 tactic with Dortmund save. So far going very well. Just played the last friendly match in which I encounter an issue which is seen in picture. I am clearly the better side, so the opposition parked the bus. I had 16 shots on target with only 1 goal. They had 1 successful shot and scored. Can you give an advice what to do in such circumstances. I believe in FM 17, you suggested to drop a defensive line deeper to lure the opposition out and also maybe playing with defensive mentality. What is the solution in FM 18? Thank you.

knap Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 Dropping mentality may work this year, but perhaps changing to BLUE MATTER 433 or even this tactic Knap_BlueMatter_Double_Trequartista_Mr_L_tweak_FM18.fmf There is also an overload tactic.

Chief Scout Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Knap, first of all; I wish you a happy new year. May it be joyful everyday. Secondly, thank you for the advice. I shall try those 2 more offensive alternative tactics (BM 433 or BM 2 trequartista tweak) should I encounter ''park the bus'' teams in the forthcoming season. I am not a big fan of overload mentality due to excessive number of wasteful long shots. After that last friendly match, I played vs. Bayern in supercup and won 4:0. A very good tactic indeed (WOF 343 vol 4). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
