You can pick any, then change the instructions and set pieces.

Gratz!
Pip said: Don't often post results on these forums, but 3.3 is awesome, bunch of journeymen smash petro dollar plaything dreams... Red card in final helped... Mix of 3.3 in UCL and 3.3AW in league. Thanks ZaZ. (Hajduk SPlit in 2nd Season btw)

To win UCL with a team from Croatia in the second season is a big accomplishment! Gratz!

Match engine is the same.
nijak05 said: @ZaZ for tough away games would it make sense to start out with cautious mentality and then change back to positive at/after HT? or should it always be kept at positive.

And if chasing a goal would it make sense to switch to more attacking mentality or is it better using touchline shouts etc.?


It was good on FM21, but I didn't test how much it affects performance on this version. I'll try to check later.
Dirtness is also a very bad attribute to have, since it can cost a couple of victories every season.

Thanks for testing!
Jates12 said: @ZaZ any news on 3.4 AW mate? looking forward to giving it a try!

It was removed because it used FM-Arena's set pieces, but there was a problem with their experiments and they are going to update it again. As soon as their set pieces are consolidated, I will put the tactic up again. If you have any question, look in the forum for FM-Arena's set pieces or ask @Zippo.


Nebuuuu said: Hey ZaZ.
As a middcle-class team coach, in the middle of the season, within a squadchange (old, bad out -> young, talented in = end of the season 5-6 new/better player) in the 1st season:

Should i use the Blue 3.3 AW tactic or should i wait for next or even the season after, because it´s for stronger teams?
So far, 22 Bundesliga-Matches played, i`m 2nd-3rd behind Dortmund/Bayern, with Hertha.

Or is it okay or even better to use 3.3. Blue-AW now? It should be THAT much risky, right? :D

I`ll try it anyway, because have better offensive midfield winger than defensive winger.


Don't bother changing tactics. If they are all same score and same goal difference, then they are statistically equal and it's better to use the one you have the best players for.
It's against the rules to speak non-English here.
Green 4.0 out after so many requests.
thepunisher23 said: hello in the event of a red card, what modification should be made?

Remove either the SS or the left AF.
Joe said: ok cheers mate, ill just go with what i thinks best.

Work Rate, Pace, Stamina, Acceleration, Passing, Positioning and Decisions are the most important.
Joe said: Hi ZaZ, what sort of player have i got to look for in the RPM role ? more of a good defensive midfielder that has good marking,tackling,positioning and aggressive stats or is it a player with better passing and more of a player that keeps thing ticking over like good passing,creative,composure on the ball player.

Check "Important Attributes" in first post, or check these filters.

When FM-Arena's set pieces are updated.
Guts said: ZaZ 3.4 Aw Amazing Setpiece , My CB Hattrick from conner

Credits to @Zippo, not sure if he used my set pieces as inspiration or not.
Dre said: Hi!

I played a full season with a custom team that I have created. I'm doing a challenge where I only use my youth academy and my youth talent - so, no transfers since I started. (Also, you'll notice that some of my players have a ! in the beginning of their names, it's just so I can identify who's a newgen and who's not).

I was promoted from Vanarama National and this was the first season playing in Sky Bet League Two. I used ZaZ 3.4 AW. All games were played, no holiday mode. The only tricky thing was the discipline, I had a lot of yellow and red cards. Other than that, 3.4 AW is amazing!


Set players with yellow to ease off tackles, that helps a lot!
klokan said: hey @ZaZ , first of all gratz on another top tactic this year :D
can you tell us please, what training do you use when it's time for international break?
also, does it make sense to do the individual focus(quickness) on each player even though he can't be develop more than he did, for example some older players?

I suppose we can still let them train quickness becuase they decline less than they would if we don't put them on individual focus ? thx for answering :)


Thanks! About the first question, I usually give vacation to my players and try to rest, or make some friendlies if they are not close to fatigue. If you have enough time, you can give players some rest, then do a mini pre-season of one or two weeks.

About quickness, I keep it on all players, even older, because I feel like it makes them keep their speed for a longer time, losing other attributes instead. I'm not sure if it really works that way, but I think they lose less speed when training quickness.
Rhumble said: thats cool , its all been a help though

which version was the one that you and mark thought gave the best results , ive got loads in my ratings folder and i cant remember what order they i downloaded them in, would they work in FM21 or has everything changed between both games


From my ratings, the one that subtracts 25 from all weights under 50 was the best, according to Mark's test. But I believe his scores might be better than mine since he tested that more than me.
Zippo said: Fixed. Try to remove it now.

Thank you!
I removed Blue 3.4 AW because of the problem described here. I will re-upload it after tests are done again. For Blue 3.4, I couldn't remove it because the delete button is not showing. @Zippo, can you fix that for me, please?

lHollow said: Wonderful tactic. I was able to win the runner-up with Southampton :D Thank you!

I have a question: Is it necessary to train the specific role? For example: Burki (POR) -> SK - SU?


Thanks and congratulations! About your question, I always set training to the role because it affects tactical familiarity, like Poacher said above. However, I'm not sure how much that affects performance, and it's something very hard to test.
