Definitely feels like all "plug and play" tactics are weaker on FM22 than previous iterations

Top tactics from last year had 72% win rate in FM-Arena test. This year, top tactic has barely 60%. It's not about plug and play, but tactics in general are worse this year. Defenses are just too leaky at the moment, not because of the tactics, but the match engine itself.

obviously, the game is way more difficult this year

I would say there are too many beautiful goals from right outside the area, with the ball hitting the post and going in. I guess they improved the accuracy of shots, because in last FM all strikers were blind.

Long shots better
passes to do easy tap ins working much better vs a lot of sidenetting in previous verions
Crosses being seem really strong ( and thus corners as well )
Mentality system broken - very attacking by default gives best results while it should be a last resort when behind only pretty much
Youth development "tweaked" / bugged
Horrible regen faces ( although this wont be fixed until fm 23 for sure )
some mental stats important on paper but tests indicating they are a lot less important then they "should" - too much emphasis on physicals imo

Honestly atm Im considering going back to my longterm save of fm21 until some of these issues are fixed tbh

Most of those points weren't very different in FM21, to be honest. =)

I've been playing this game for years and I have to disagree. This year is actually pretty good I'd say. Finally it feels a little challenging and yeah, crossing is a little OP but the game overall feels so much more realistic and pleasant to look at.

I have to disagree I'm afraid and I've also been playing this game all the way back to the original Championship Manager games of the early 90's.

Almost every iteration of FM is the same in that despite having better players, better tactics, many more shots on target etc. you will always find the oppositions goalkeepers will play sensationally against you, you'll hit the woodwork 3 or 4 times a game, many goals disallowed etc.  I think it's the match engines way of "rubber banding" i.e. stopping you from winning 15-0 every game.  How many times do you find yourself 3 or 4 up at half time and go on to win by the same / less margin?  I'm not saying winning 15-0 every game is the answer as that wouldn't be remotely fun but I think it shows that the match engine is a million miles away from reality.

Case in point I've just beaten Man City 6-0 away in the league then lost 3-0 away to West Ham (West Ham had lost every league game so far this season and lost their carabao cup game  before soundly beating me)

FM22 so far just feels like every result is wildly random

can anyone beat 4 goals disallowed in a game?

That's when you blame the referee after the match and get a suspension.

Gabriel Barbosa is not so good in real life, but he is a beast in the game.

P.S.: I only watched him playing in Brazil and the Libertadores finals, which he didn't seem very impressive. I checked here and he scored 12 this season in brazilian league, which isn't so great either.

imagine winning 6-0 vs second in league and the opponements goalie gets a 9.0 :D.

Woah ZaZ. Second season. Lost Mbappé and bought Haaland. huge rotation and best season ever.
More than 200 goals scored.
Haaland with 22 goals in CL and 44 in league.
Dynamics in perfect state.
Plenty of new 16-17 yr old talents.
Needless to say that I won the quintuple :D!
Love this tactic!

Gratz! Most tactics work with PSG, but this one works extremely well.

Could this tactic be improved? Or are you going for a different route?

It will get attention soon, but the queue for testing just gets longer.

Are there any OI's or any special instructions for the players for the foot, set pieces, etc? For Orange 2 CM
