sibelius
Folllowing my earlier post, I just saw that the tactic is tested against only ONE team with 3 at the back (re: Test 1 to Test 36 results).

Maybe the narrow works when you're not playing a team that's packing the middle and pushing you outside.

I dunno... I'm still figuring it all out. :goofy:
Cyclingstrategist said: I’m sorry but the tactic doesn’t work for me, i play olympique lyonnais, i recruit best staff in the begining of the season and i’m 15th at winter… do you have any advice ? Thanks for your work and sorry for my english…

I think it's the "narrow" width.
I was using the early versions of the 424 Classic (by Gianaa9) a month ago, and it was working well.
For some reason, these guys tested the tactic with narrow width and it apparently fared better -- but that's not the case when you're playing.
I used the newer narrow versions with the same squad and it struggled to create or score,  especially when you're facing AI teams with 3 at the back (Serie A has lots).

When I switched to Katana or GrassFury or BoxLevante, I started winning again immediately. Then I tried the narrow 424 again, it slumped once more (even on a positive mentality)

BUT... when I went back to old "fairly wide" 424 classic, results were a bit better.
Hence my deduction.
