Wide XMAS Tree AM v1

Same as the previous tactic but with AMs



Imagine losing the premier league with 101 points

For Patch 23.3.0 it looks like

Inverted Wingbacks? Defensive Wingers? NICE

A quick test with Man City

How do IWBs work regarding their foot proficienty? Walker is right footed and Ake is left footed, i thought IWB played on the opposite side of the field of their preffered foot.

Nah, that's wrong thinking

In my experience it does not matter what foot they are with respect to what side. However, they do benefit from being two footed.

It feels like, they fixed underlaps IWB and maybe AM/SS ?_? holy putato

So refreshing not seeing a 4-2-2-2

This tactic will get more points with @Delicious's set pieces.

This work for weaker teams? like Wolves?

I haven't tried it with a weak team but I can say with FC Bayern the tactic works great.

I had only 2 loses in the season.

Good one! I'm trying to find good tactic for Wolves, I will test this one..

Can u post individual instructions and tactics settings for Xbox players? Thanks

Interesting formation, can it work with a tall/slow target man type at AF? Think Lucca rather than Salah/Mané

Adix said: This work for weaker teams? like Wolves? Expand

I think so. I have tested this tactic twice with Leeds on holiday mode.
Finished 4th with 65 points and 5th with 67 points.
No transfer made.

I removed the "get stuck in" and all the "tackle harder" (apart from the DWs, which they cannot be changed).
In addition, I changed the corner takers to "Mixed" in order to test the tactic without set piece advantages.

I put in a test to see if lowering the defensive line could improve the tactic. https://fm-arena.com/thread/4707-wide-xmas-tree-am-v2/#thread-name-anchor

The roles I use are whats most effective for me. However, I can see SS or a BWM-D working well for this shape. I would just try stuff out to see if it helps the tactic in the game.

Cherknam said: Yeah I've seen, hopefully it works well. I prefer the two SS rather AM personally, have you tried that with DM (Su)? Definitely worse than with AMs? Expand

I would say SS and AMs are about the same. I think there could be a slight edge for either one but it will never be noticeable in the game.

Can it be tested for PATCH 23.4.0 (N)? @Zippo

nice tactic, creative genius it's like nothing I've ever seen!
