Plug and play
Noticed couple of things in FM 26, the strikers especially Haaland never scores, currently 11 matches without a goal. Also, even with higher xG and shots on target you lose most of the matches.
Unbeaten in 30 matches in all competitions:D
Seems like some decent results, did you holiday all the matches or play them?
19 clean sheets out of 26 games
Purity said: josh daly shit, don't bother

Well none of the tactics out there are any worth at the moment. Anyways, I found this one very stable got 15 clean sheets in 19 games with Arsenal. Seems stable not conceding too many goals. I like to test different tactics.
Tactic tested with PSG and it worked really well with PSG unbeaten a full season :D

the original or the second version?
doru228 said: Adjusted AM (IP) -> DM(OOP) for a better team shape, previous version the player was drifting too much = better defensive shape
Adjusted BPK (IP) GK(OOP) - helps build up play when opponent is pressing

Better results personally with a Lower League Team
Not very high scoring but constant winning

@doru228 Hey mate is your tactic better than the one posted by @Larnziee as I wanna run a test which one should I use? Many thanks!
ZaZ said: Here a simple 424 that has been working well for me.

Dear @ZaZ Do you use any OI's or dugout shouts or any set pieces? Many thanks! I am testing your tactic..

Dear Zaz I'm your big fan since many years because of your work. Highly appreciate you serving the FM community.
Regarding this tactic can you post the results etc
CairoCarClub said: Hi @max 737 thank you for sharing but I have 2 questions. First, is that Highway Star tactic by Gerard for FM24, that still works in FM26 beta? And second, how / where to find the compilation of tactics like this, as the "TABLES" tab up top still has no FM26 section in it. Apologies as I'm new here in this forum, thank you

its a new tactic made for fm 26, just use this for now as its the best tactic on meta atm

Using this tactic and mc40 set piece routine, winning 90 % matches, away is balanced mentality. Won 3 consecutive leagues and CL with Arsenal using this tactic.

Zippo said: Hi,

In general, the game is still in a beta phase and as we can see it gets patches almost on a daily basis so there's no point in testing anything at the moment.

And mostly important, the official pre-game editor hasn't been released yet so we can't start creating our tactic testing league for FM26.

And when the above is solved then of course, it would takes some time to adjust our tactic testing server for FM26 before we start testing tactics for FM26.


Thank you for your reply, we are eagerly waiting for the same. Many Thanks!
Any idea when Fm Arena will start testing tactics for FM 2026, you guys did a marvellous job on testing FM 2024. Many thanks!
@Gerrard Can you post your highway star p 108 here, I won back to back EPL, CL, FA cup with Arsenal first two seasons in Fm 26 :D
Gerrard said: ARGUS 3ATB is still weak. I may have a solution which is a hybrid.

@Gerrard If you may can you please post your favourite tactic here. Just for my knowledge as I know testing hasn't begun yet. Many Thanks!:D
Regards
@Gerrard  Using argus highway star and azure26 set piece, I won 5-0 at home against City and 6-1 away at Chelsea with Arsenal!
Gerrard said: Same as last year HIGHWAY STAR STORMBRIBGER SPEED KING.

Added Sunderland underdog test


So you think highway star argus ranks the best along with azure26 set piece?
@Gerrard  Hello, what tactic do you suggest for beta in the meanwhile as testing has not yet started?
