@ZaZ For the 1000x time, thank you for everything you do. How is your current view on this ME? Do you feel its 'breakable' ? Or is this probably the best we are going to get?
ZaZ said: I'm pretty sure the mods can see who uses the same IP and even what location they connect from, so they could easily ban any account from the same user.

Haha I was just joking, but that was obviously what happened on the other forums he was on. Obviously don't believe you would be TFF! ;-)
Metal said: Bloody hell you're right Orange 2CM is a beast. All of the tactics I used before don't work but this one looks like a keeper

Weird that it only socres a 4.9 in the tactic test table..
If he was really TFF i would have expected a lot of other accounts controlled by him also stating he really isn't TFF.

;-------------)
ZaZ said: It's the other way around. Lower scores mean attributes had higher impact in performance. Acceleration and Pace are still the most important.

Omg i'm so stupid.. ill cry in a corner now
I am wondering (not sure if this is the right topic) but last year the attribute test done on this site showed that things like acceleration really scored high compared to other attributes. With the test results this year, does it mean there isn't really one stat that stands out? And acceleration seems weakest now? What does that mean for individual training in general? Last year I put everyone on acceleration lol (https://fm-arena.com/table/13-fm22-attributes-ratings/)
StephenHK tactics have been good for so many years. He is one of the best!
I just want to thank you for all the work you do (is this the right place for it???)
ZaZ said: I always said that any tactic with score 6+ will allow you to overachieve. It's just that the previous editions had good tactics, and godly ones. This one doesn't have godly tactics yet.

Oh interesting !!
Wait a 6.0 rating is good?? Isn’t that only just an average grade??
DoubleR said: I had to have an unbeaten season with Marseille to finally beat PSG (they won 14 league titles in a row) and still im only 4 points clear and they have a better goal difference (123 goals scored, 18 conceded). They are also my opponent in the upcoming champions league final.. god help me!!

The first half went with almost no highlights so 0-0. So I was like uhmmm all right?? I guess it was all the pressure on both teams!

In the second half I did everything I could shouting my lungs out ... and it still stayed 0-0.. but just when I thought I would go to extra time, I scored 2 amazing goals and won!

Champions league winners !!!! Marseille 2032 :D

Quick update from my journeyman: the year is 2028 and just won the champions league in my second season with RB Salzburg. The final was against PSG and I did have some luck: I won 0-1 and Mbappe missed a penalty. But still it’s quite remarkable using Phoenix v5.0. Seeing the contract AI is shitty (I could only sign for 5 years or for a short amount which would reduce my wages to below what I was earning), so winning the champions league was also the last thing I did for RB Salzburg lol... next up: Sporting CP in Portugal :D
Would you guys say Pace and acceleration are still the most OP stats? Like is it 'safe' to just have my whole team focus on those 2 for individual training? (together with the player role so other stats increase too of course)
Markizio said: Any tactic when tested with fast players will do much better than with any other type of players because Acceleration and Pace attributes are the most powerful attributes in FM21 - https://fm-arena.com/table/9-important-attributes/

When you delegate picking the team to the assistant manager then it turns into a lottery for some roles he might pick slow players and for other roles he might pick fast players so any testing where the assistant manager picks the team is kinda useless.


Is that just for this tactic or in general (on FM 21)??
If you haven’t tried a journeyman save before, give it a go! Having so much fun with it. here is a link to my post on Reddit with my full story: https://www.reddit.com/r/footballmanagergames/comments/mnofhk/if_you_havent_tried_a_journeyman_save_before_give/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

During this save I have mostly used the Phoenix tactic so that’s really a big factor in how much fun I had so far :)
After an unbeaten season with Dinamo Zagreb (104 points) and winning the cup too in my second season in the club I let my contract run out after two years: time for something new!

I had my eyes set on either the Swiss, Danish, Scottish or Austrian league. Then Rapid Wien came up which I thought was a really interest club. Just when the talks started, however, RB Salzburg became available because their manager left for Atletico Madrid.

well then the choice is easy haha, RB Salzburg was high on my list of clubs I wanted to manage. So RB Salzburg, here I come!

Can’t wait to try out Phoenix at that club :)
ZaZ said: Was not talking about dimartino specifically, but recently lots of people are bashing Phoenix for a couple of bad results. I think some people get too impatient when they lose 3 or 4 matches in a row, but I think no tactic is immune to some bad form runs.

Yeah people forget they are 90% overachieving massively and then blame the tactic when they suddenly have 10% what the actual performance should be haha. I mean I lost in the CL against Liverpool.. hard with Dinamo Zagreb. I don’t blame the tactic, I just thank the tactic for bringing me to the spot it should have (normally) probably never been in
ZaZ said: Phoenix is quite consistent, I don't understand why péople think it performs badly.

It’s one of the most consistent tactics I have ever played, you are totally right. But it’s a dimartino tweak who might be one of the best tacticians around, so that alone interests me :)
ZaZ said: Let me guess, 6.8 was the DM?

Close: the CM! The DM actually got one of the 10's with 2 goals and 2 assists ;-)
