Autumn 3.12, but with a striker, since people asked me to test it here.



WesleySantiago said: Four subs in halftime? Why that?

To give playing time to the squad, and manage condition and fatigue for the season.
Wingers passing more direct.



Cold said: @ZaZ Sorry to be a pain but how do you approach in match shouts is there a best way or it all situational thanks again

- Not winning: Encourage
- Winning against stronger team: No pressure
- Winning by 2+ goals: Praise
- Losing by 2+ goals: Berate

Some shouts like praise and berate give better results after 15 minutes of scoring / conceding the goal, so I usually wait a bit before doing those.
Cold said: @ZaZ when do you make subs and do shouts in game thanks in advance 🙂

If I have 5 subs, I usually do 4 during half time, and leave one to the last 15 minutes (unless the match is tight, else I save it in case of some injury or red card).

This is what I use currently: https://fm-arena.com/thread/18274-optimal-training-schedules/

Usually you can find training in the schedule window, by the top left where it says General / Training / Fixtures. I do not know how it is on console, though.
liamMayte said: where can I find this

First post.


liamMayte said: Also how does training work for console you cant create schedules all you can do is training focus. week after week. Or should i do it manually with each player.

I do not know, I never played this game on console. Maybe someone else can answer this question.
One CHM set to move forward, and IF from his side is set to take more risks.



DM shooting less often and taking more risks.

Added info for console players.
Playing through the flanks, very wide, with overlaps and early crosses.



Lower defensive line.



Azertymag said: Hi ZaZ, for wingers do you recommend having a false foot?

To be fair, I do not see much difference with either foot. I even train them in the other side so they can fit in two positions without an issue.
Asymmetric flanks and supporting runs.



DLP instead of DM.
Note: Name is wrong in the screenshots, I did not remember I had already submitted a different 3.06.



WesleySantiago said: @ZaZ What would you say is the order of importance of the positions? The most important positions in the tactic? Can you give me an order so I can decide which position to choose the best player for first?

It is hard to quantify, because I would rather go for balance instead of focusing too much in a single position. That means I would prioritize positions with less performant players (often the slower ones). If the team is well balanced, then I would prioritize the main goal scorers first, like wingers and shadow striker. After that, I would go for wingbacks and central midfielders, and finally defenders and goalkeeper.


ggrpereira said: Hi! I’m trying to better understand what kind of players suit each position in this tactic.

Could you briefly describe the ideal profiles per role (key attributes, traits, physical/mental focus)? I’ve seen the filters, but I’d like a clearer idea of what to look for when evaluating players.

Thanks!


The attributes for most positions is the same, with some small differences here or there. For example, central defenders benefit more from jumping than dribbling, while flank players benefit more from dribbling than jumping reach. Central defenders also benefit much less from stamina than flank players, but I feel like they benefit much more from anticipation. No matter what, all of them benefit greatly from pace and acceleration, so those should always be the primary focus.

Keep in mind that is just my perception, but it is very hard to test the impact of attributes in different positions, since each player is only responsible for a small part of the team performance.
Winger cutting inside, crossing from byline, and shooting less often.

Chatin said: Hello @ZaZ Since there are 4 workouts, how should I use them? 1 per week or whichever one I like best?

There are two workouts, each of them with versions for 1 and 2 matches in the week. My recommendation is to use Growth 3 times per month, and Rebalance 1 time per month (so, 3:1).
