Hi folks,

I've tried to achieve something unpopular these days, possession with couple tweaks that may suit current meta, tempo.

I've increased the tempo but not fulled it, also used "WMs" thanks to @Delicious discovering this awesome position. It allowed me to use full wide pitch, and they always get above 7.0 points.

I have 2 versions of this tactic, one with VOL-A other one with DMs. I usually use DM version since my team sux but VOL-A provides more stable attacks as far as i can see.

I don't expect much since possession sucks nowadays but let's see.


By the way, i'm not sure whether both of these tactics going to be tested. Can someone inform me how it works?

 

Since i'm still playing the career this is the most recent screenshot of squad.


Past season schedule.

When :P
Any idea why possession completely garbage? i mean... that's shit :D
still no tactic that aims possession? sadge... i miss barca 10-11
should we sub CDs at half then?
what'bout 2.5?
And what if i analyze upcoming team like if they playing mentality is "play from wings" i defend wings... Would that give more chance to win against bigger teams as underdog?
so is it better to keep as it is even though attributes aren't suited for the role unless pace/acc ?
is it possible to change bpd to cd or non sense cd? would that make difference? im asking since my weirdo defender has 7 passing :d
Hi everyone, i was checking tactics and my match engine version at the same time and I realized my m.e. version is old. Is it just me or do you guys have 23.4?
Jerome - Pink
4-3-3 needed @Delicious :D
congratz best 4231
Hi again everyone, since i've been trying 3 def formations, heres the another one. Holiday'd whole season with chelsea(unfortunately i just missed the season ending so screenshots could frustrate you guys :( )

Won every cup except PL.

The formation is 3-4-1-2 with "Wide central backs and Defensive Wingers"(DWs inspired by xmas tactic)

Here's screenshots

Hi everyone, yet another (x-1-2-1-2) formation here, i hope this would do better than the other one.

Holiday'd whole season and won the epl as Arsenal but unfortunately got knocked out in Europa League.

sorry for wasting your time @Zippo  LOL
Hi all, changed the tactic names. Jerome - Aggression is balanced version and the other one is positive version(more posssession based)

Hi thanks for the suggestion. I've changed tactic names with a basic information like 3-1-2-1-3 balanced. Should i change topic name also?
Hi all, first of all i want to say this is just experimental tactic that i wanted to create for FUN. But in the end i liked it!

I'm using 2 wide central backs and 1 central defender as you can see from the pictures, the reason because i'm using wide central backs is they act like defender(not like fullback) when defending but the magic is on attacking side, they move further forward like a full back would do. Since wide central backs are stay more wider when compared to normal defenders they also cover sides(not as much as full back would do of course)

The reason for carrilero is they provide width to the team. They also cover wing sides. One of my concerns was side attacks when creating this tactic, but when i watch the full game with TV camera i saw that that wasn't serious problem as i thought it would be.

Anyway i did 2 testes;

1- Balanced mentality, removed "work ball into the box" instruction. (HAALAND SCORED 70 in the league - in total 112 goals)
2- More possession based (positive mentality and work ball into the box)

For the set pieces tactic, i'm not a great set piece tactician so i did my best(its not working tho LOL).

Let me share couple of screenshots based on testings.

THE FIRST TEST A.K.A BALANCED ONE (112 GOALS IN A SEASON BY HAALAND) -(Jerome - Aggression)
