Vernard Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Apologies if this has already been asked but I couldn't find anything. I've been looking at the 424, however my players are currently IFs that I use from your 4231. Is it possible to get an IF version or to change the Wingers to IFs and not lose any of the tactics effectiveness at all? If not, then I will have to bite the bullet and retrain my left footed players to left wing etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knap Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Generally changing roles will make the tactic less effective. You probably do not need to re train players but it is an option. Also a 442 would be a better option than 424. Edited May 23, 2019 by knap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazz Playerz Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Knap i am running the long term save with your p09 all cups. I am using geniescout to scout players best suited for the role. But you say its okay just to scout for position cause that will make scouting a lot easier. and i must say 442 is really lovely to watch, great plays.

knap Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 In essence you are looking for the best talent for these positions (with Genie you can use CA/PA and positional ratings on right hand side) You can adjust positional ratings for your own Club DNA, and would be a useful tool to have in game) GK WBs (more attacking orientated than FBs) CDs WBs MC D can be a DM/MC MC A can be MC/AP FS Screenshot of how Genie shows positions. Because Genie shows CA PA if you need more info on Genie best to PM me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 I test other roles, but it is often a combination that works and that has to be done playing games.

Arsenal to win their first title since the invincibles and the most clean sheets top trolling lol Got hit with huge injuries to star players.

Jamieac Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Thunk I may try traditional wingers this season. Inverted didn't really work as much for me in the PL like they did in the Scottish league. Probably due to the quality of defenders reading the cut ins better. Plus i've found the through balls expected using inverted are few and far between due to strikers movement being a bit weak in this years FM Will report back if it improves my results.

MikaGenevaz Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 First season using p109 I won the championship with 101p and won Champions League 4-0 against Real Madrid, used p103 and p106 in the early of the season till October where I switched to p109. Very solid tactic Knap. No OI, pre match briefing for my assistant, individual training set for the very same role the players plays in match (eg: Salah is the Pressing Forward and Firmino the Poacher and I never switch them so I set the individual training accordingly). Everything else is just about plug and play. I also use the tip given by matiz96 wich is change mentality to positive / standard in match when i'm dominated or very exposed to counter attacks and it works like a charm to hold the score or push the other team to leave more space to score. Now I'll try to win the PL and C1 again with the FA Cup where I lost against MU this year. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rio_V Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Thank you. Played a frustrating 4141 first season and struggled. Thought I might switch to a 442 b/c that seems to be tactic of choice for them once I put it on vacation for a match. Seems like it makes sense to try the P103 ECCC 442 (Good for underdogs_ since I will rarely be favored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikaGenevaz Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 442 seems to be the best tactic so far this year and this is a pretty good tactic overall in real life I still don't understand why people are trying to build 433 or other complex and risky tactics. P103 ECCC seems to be a good choice for Fulham but the P109 is also a beast if you play a bit with mentality and have enough subs because this tactic is very demanding physicaly and you'll got a lot of yellow cards. Anyway, straight forward start of season 2 using plug-and-play'ed P109 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's boring to see the same 4-4-2 all the time, especially since it's not a widely used tactic by the best managers. Sadly that's just the way the match engine works. Maybe next year we'll be back to 3-4-3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
