Guys,

What is the tactics settings if want to win the ball from opposition before they are able to enter your half?

Not tactic, its instruction. Set to "More Pressing" in Team Instruction

Hi all,

I was just wondering if anybody could help me out more using this tactic, specifically about that of the position of the 3 strikers up front. I use the normal tactic myself so when I import the Tactic (normal) one, I see two wingers in front with the trequista in the middle. If i was to consolidate the two winger and put them side by side with my middle (trequista) striker, giving me 3 strikers up front, what would their roles be? i.e. should i put adv forward - attack on my left striker and poacher on the right one? thanks in advance.

Depend on what you like. There is no really specific formula for those with 3 attacker. I play my style as long as I could win

AML(Inside Forward - Attack) -- Striker(Adv. Forward - Attack) -- AMR(Winger - Support)

How is it that the most passes per game always are from my fullback/wingback, instead of my trequista, dlp or ap? I am using jeff's tactic with very minimal tweaks (wingback a bit more creativity and run with ball sometimes) but that's it. Thank you once again.

You can set the WB or FB not holding up balls for lowering the passes made by them

But this will make the passing option are less than usual though = low possesion

I used to wonder that myself, so one fine day, I decided to switch from text mode to 2D graphics mode. That's when I realised why it happens.

When you use this tactic constantly, the AI opposition will automatically play to crowd out the middle of the field to disrupt your passing game, therefore you run out of space. Because of this, you wind up passing to the only area where you have space - your flanks, which you only have your fullbacks there. So they'll wind up passing back and forth between the fullbacks and the various midfielders until one of the midfielders can find space to make a through ball into the box. Something like that lar.

paulo ferreira play barca tiki taka? wow..

Using this tika-taka formation, and the players who end up with most passes are my left-back and defensive midfielder with 100++ passes a game.

/shrug

I've change to 4-4-2...don' know why the AMC position got problems, not like what I required

i tried this tactic with swansea. minor tweaking only.
win all pre-season match against weaker team with 60-70% possession.
But after the league start, i lost all first 3 matches against everton, arsenal, blackburn although with decent possession, 50-55%..

very hard playing swansea.... -__-

Lessen some more on Creativity might help scoring chances as they will not bring the ball to the near goal without shooting

manage to fight from going relegated with swansea, 15th place.. tweak here and there but still unconvincing. start of second season, buy lots of youngster with good potential, but still fighting for a win.. sure lose against big team (unless they send their 2nd team)..job security insecure now.hahaha.

tiki-taka is so yesterday. anybody up for marcelo bielsa's 343?

Main pointers in 3-4-3 Athletic Bilbao??

read about it. very interesting if you want to implement it. it's like mixing the English football with total football. you need a big, strong and mobile target man, defenders that able to start an attack, good wing forwards, and central midfielders that can go up and down easily-or should i say two box to box midfielders.

After seeing your reply.. I decided to google and find this LOL

may not fully utilize certain to a certain degree of similarities but Marcelo Bielsa philosophy are quite interesting

guys, im using target man tactics, but the problem is, i have so many shot and control the game, but i cant convert it to goals. Any personal instruction on target man? or any?

Less creativity or Rare Long Shots (if you using TS tactics , then long shots are irrelevant)
