I mean, are there any stats of total corners taken and goals scored ? Or total corners against and conceded? Expand
You can see total goals and combine it with goals scored from corners, direct free kicks and indirect free kicks, then see the percentage of goals scored from each set piece. You can do the same for defense too. Then, you can see points per match and goal difference and use all that info to decide which set pieces are the best. It's not so simple and requires lots of runs to make sure RNG isn't playing a role in results.

I’d like to test but I’m on console Expand
After it's tested, if results are better than 3.2, I will update all set piece pictures. (P.S.: If someone would be so kind as to add the pictures for him, it's fine too. Running other tests now and preparing to sleep.)
Experiments with set pieces are done, so Blue 3.3 is up. I hope it improves the score, because it's something that can easily be used by any other tactic.
P.S.: Best version will be renamed to Blue 4.0 after next patch.
Joe said: Thank you very much ZaZ for a great tactic,2 of my ST's i got in on loan all got top scorer's. I broke all records in the Championship also. I think i would of had less defeats but with a minimum of 13-14 players available to me with suspensions and injuries.
Great work ZaZ Expand
Thank you for testing! What tactic version did you use?
Improved set pieces. It scores more and concedes less from set pieces, but it's hard to know if there is any side effect that affects points per match (like counter attacking opportunities).
Honestly, I didn't expect winning the league but that happened
The tactic seems to be very solid.

Nice results!
Can someone test this to see if results are on the level of Blue 3.2 or Blue 3.2 AW? (P.S.: I don't post directly to test because I'm still doing some final experiments.)
P.S.: Added Blue 3.3 to main thread after experiments ended. I will add Blue 3.3 AW later if results are as good as I expect.

There is a program in Windows called snipping toop. It allows you to capture window, a rectangle, free shape or full screen. Another option is to use a button called Print Screen, which copies the screen to the register, then paste it to some image editor like Paint.

Ohh, thanks for the explanation. I have no clue how the japanese system works, but I remember playing football on N64 with Kashima Antlers when I was younger.

Is it better to play player in best position or play them out of position and keep tactic the same. Expand
Opinion from assistant manager on best player roles is just cosmetic, it doesn't have any impact in the game. Preferred foot from wingers don't make much difference either. That being said, you will usually have the best performance if you don't change the tactic.
Joe said: Hi ZaZ ! What is the purpose in your training schedule ? Is it mainly to recover after matches you play or does it improve players attributes quicker or something else. Expand
It's in the first post, under "Training". Focus is to increase chances of winning matches.
Things went downhill in the second half of season. I lost FA Cup in the second match, then had a terrible run that knocked me out of promotion zone. Luckily I managed to do a first half of season which allowed me to go to play-offs. Judging by the level of my players, that's probably the expected result, so I shouldn't complain much.
Now, either my players find the victories again, or they will have to stay another season away from Premier League. Let's see how it goes in the play-off matches.
P.S.: First match got me nervous, but second was really easy. We are promoted to Premier Division!
Exzoh said: Good evening, congratulations on the new results
Can we try the new set-up offensive kicks already? Expand
Testing set pieces isn't as straight forward as it might seen. Sometimes you get more goals from corners, but points per match go down because you are conceding more counter attacks. These attacking set pieces, for example, decreased the average number of goals I concede during a season, which doesn't make much sense to me. Luckily, it also increases points per match, which is why I believe it's a step forward.
However, I don't like to test every single small tweak here, it might encourage people to do the same or they can be angry if my tweaks are tested while theirs are not. I prefer to wait until I'm done with testing set pieces.
Joe said: That would be awesome if it gets improved anymore, im smashing teams with this 3.2 version, i was doing brilliant with 3.0 but this looks a step a head again mate. Expand
I'm quite positive 3.3 is another step ahead. I want to wrap those defensive set pieces so I can make it into Blue 4.0, before next patch.
Joe said: Just want to say great work and hard work all you lads are doing to improve this ZaZ tactic even more.
Much appreciated lads 👍 Expand
Thanks, Joe!
By the way, this is my data on my current set pieces. I'm currently trying to improve defensive set pieces as I'm happy with the attacking setup. I score around 21% of goals from set pieces, but concede around 23%, which is far from ideal.

I just won the title with Napoli
The team was predicted 4th
120 Goals Scored!
Nice! Good job!

Just copy the image, it takes less than a minute. That way it can also be used by people in consoles.
This is not the right thread to discuss that, but I'll just say leaving it to assistant manager usually makes performance worse.
Either that, or you can also use Blue AW.
