Are you also the mr hough with the 433's (triple striker) back in the old fm days? :)
Maybe his name is gerrard knap...not a bad name to be honest :)

hmm, didn't think about that, great advice!

60 pts with 2 x CMs https://fm-arena.com/thread/8769-lionheart23-4231-1-2-1/

57 pts with 2 x CMs https://fm-arena.com/thread/8251-red-general-433-cm/


According to this test - https://fm-arena.com/find-comment/31474/

In normal game 49 pts tactic gives you about 95 pts with Man City which more than enough for titles

So in theory if you prefer playing with CMs then in FM24 you are able winning trophies playing with CMs just fine


I have a tactic with 57 points with cm's, good to know that, thanks
CBP87 said: Try 2 DMs and 2 attacking Mezz, they will naturally operate in those half spaces/channels and with attacking mentality they operate a little further up potentially covering the spaces the AMR/AML would've covered

I tried exactly that. It works great with City, but when testing it with a lower side it doesn't do that well..
CBP87 said: Not banned but not as effective as the DM double pivot

I'm trying to make a tactic without wingers to work,not to have 64-65 rating, but be above 60 at least. I am not a big fan on wingers...and i hate that they get relatively low ratings on fm...and unfortunately I quite like to have players with decent ratings on the pitch :)
I can't seem to make any tactic work with central mids of any role. Do you guys had any success using them? It seems in fm24 that central mids of any role are useless..
Based on this: https://fm-arena.com/thread/9025-katana-4231-104p-v3-1/ changed IF's to attack, added dribble more to DM's and changed mentality to positive
Based on this https://fm-arena.com/thread/9025-katana-4231-104p-v3-1/, added dribble more on dm's
Gianaa9 said: It simply means that a tactic usually wins like 4-0/5-0 but wins less matches, instead the other one winning more matches with 2-1/2-0 results, we just have to find the compromise with Katana's attack and COSMOS' defence

Yup, you're right. Interesting with that SK on support :)
Droid said: It's been explained many times. By default, the tactics are sorted by "points" but the tables shows you the "rounded" numbers when the actual numbers are "64.3625" and "64.239".

Bear in mind, that even 4,000 matches tests still have 0.5-1.5 pts RNG.

In general, if tactics have the same rating then there won't be any noticeable difference between then in a normal save, which means in a normal save a tactic 64pts(EXCELLENT) rating would work for you as good as a tactic 59pts(EXCELLENT).

I know how it works, but thanks :). It's just awkward :)). If judging by the goal diff it should have won more games, but yeah there are other factors involved. It's just funny how football works :)
Almost :). Congrats! It's curios how this tactic with better defence got number 2
Nice! When does it get the 4k? it's been a while since 2400 matches test
You're signing up for failure without counter press, that's for sure :)
Gianaa9 said: yep, but it reduces so much lose balls and risky dribbling, honestly i'm a big supporter of Hold Up on offensive roles ahah

Holp up ball yeah, it makes huge difference, but i'm curios if overlaps or underlaps make it hold it too much
I'm testing it now without overlaps or undrlaps to see how it goes. Practically underlaps or overlaps with hold up ball, makes the player hold it much more, thus slowing the game, maybe?
So little changes, so huge impacts
I submited the wrong tactic 🤦‍♂️
4141 with one AM to support and one on attack
Am changed to support and added get further forward to DM's. Let's see how it goes. From my tests, the dm's are more involved in the game. Inspired from https://fm-arena.com/thread/9025-katana-4231-104p-v3-1/
