It should be 4231dm because I just uploaded the new version yesterday.

thx for having a try.
crizeKOS said: I tried few games against L'pool away, Ball playing CBs made us conceive too many goals. When I changed them to regular CBs we managed to compete against them. The overall season result was better to me with the CB's as well, here some example.

Nice try, but u can see there would be a loss in attack. The rating of both BPDs would be low because of facing direct impact from opponents' wingers, but they play an important role as risk-takers by passing through balls to your 3 strikers.
crizeKOS said: why did u remove overlap runs?


I couldn't prove it's 100% correct but it might be a common sense in the near future that through balls would be the deadliest killer for the defence line.
Besides, one CWB on one wing would find himself struggling under the pressure from both DM and DL/DR.
Holiday test with TOT, with 3+ goals per game. The result would be better if the team didn't lose those easy matches in May.





GoGoGo!

Tangfu skin. You can google it yourself.
Filer974 said: I was making a career with Bristol, after a few defeats I installed your tactics... frankly congratulations, well done, superb tactics

Thx for having a try.
Chewbacca said: @MakeSuRE, what training do you suggest for the tactic.

Maybe Evidence Based Training Schedule? I just throw team training part to AM.
Tejash said: @MakeSuRE  Any opp instructions? Individual instructions or feet preference? Or set piece

No OI so far and set pieces have been remade and you can find them in my last posted tactic BigDanBurn32221.
Feel free to use the set pieces if u find them work well.
Holiday test with Tottenham.



Wow!
ZaZ said: You can also play with two DMs, but then it will lack attacking power.

Yep. Compared with the gameplay in FM22, it's way more difficult to achieve the balance between ATT and DEF in FM23.
toonarmy0511 said: Same here. I think something is really wrong in the way the ME simulate pressing and marking. I've seen numerous times one or both of my CMs pressing opponents defenders high up the pitch only for them to suddenly break off and running back allowing the defenders to freely lob a ball up the pitch freely. I think for now at least we can't defend too high up.
I've tried several combinations of two man in mid and what I found is that you will be frustrated by the disastrous defensive plays with no DM.
toonarmy0511 said: I'm also using 4-2-4 right now very similar to this but with W(support)s and WBs(support) so at newcastle I put almiron on the left and St Maximin on the right. I'm going to try this one out but it seems this tactic is going to be very narrow with IWs and IWBs. Are you conceding a lot from crosses?
Nope. The biggest threat would be through passes, especially in mid.

WestHammer_4231_Invert Something in advance:
1.This version is designed for elite clubs.
2.During this TOT test, injury risk was setted to zero and fatigue, as well as unhappiness, were reset monthly.
3.Despite the great offensive performance during the whole season, TOT only got 3 L and 1 D when facing Liverpool.





Tweaks from PlayGM forum Both two achieved excellent results during testing period. Sadly, my fm23 kept crushing in the middle of the whole season testing. So I guess I should just leave this two great tweaks for you guys. Feel free to leave comments.
WestHammer_×_BBB_4231 BBB tactic series requires strong players as DL/DR. That's to say, pick WCB as your WB. For those who don't want to follow this, simply go to the set pieces section and pull back DL & DR to backline, swapping their positions with DMCL/DMCR's or AML/AMR's.

Holiday test with Crystal Palace.




TBH, first test round was ridiculous. By using this tactic, ManUtd got 1st in PL before the World Cup, with an eight-macthes-in-a-row clean sheet. Then CR7's unhappiness finally leaded to the sack of the manager. What a waste of an excellent test opening.
Eric said: I guess the idea is outscoring opponents

Tested the tactic with Chelsea




That's pretty much of this tactic.
Nikko said: the defense seems a bit leaky

Yep. I've tried quite a few formations but it's hard to find a way to make a balance bewteen attack & defense in beta.
