Fixing Your Bad Tactics (with Tom)

Рет қаралды 170,102

Жыл бұрын

In honor of Tom going full time - we hopped on Reddit and decided to help people that were asking for Tactic help! We have a combined three streamer showdown titles and have a lot of experience playing Football Manager at a high level. I will be sure to link my FM resume below to justify me doing this. Tom just has great vibes so you probably don’t need his resume, but if you want his links to great FM videos I will provide those below as well.
I wanted this tactic saving process to be anonymous. I feel like if I ask for these sorts of Football Manager videos I can get innundated with people that just want to be in a video. Don’t get me wrong, that’s really cool, but these people posted on Reddit specifically asking for help and I just brought Tom around to help them out. Who doesn’t want to have fun breaking down Tactics on FM? It’s certainly more fun then using them in a match only to get FM’d anyways.
Much Love,
FM Senpai

Linked to what Tom said about training rating - on the tactics screen if you minimize the tactic with the double-left arrow in the top left corner, you get more information about your lineup. That includes a picture of each individual player's tactical familiarity in the system as well as their recent workload. I've found this super helpful recently to get an idea of where things might be falling down from an individual player understanding perspective.

I was struggling with 4-2-3-1 but now I'm the master of it beating man city 6-2 , my backs are in complete wing backs on attack one of my center defend are in central defend cover and the other is in ball playing defend my midfielder one is box box support and the other is in deep laying playmaker defend my attacking midfield is in attacking midfield support and my wingers are in inverted wingers attack my forward is an advance forward also my goalkeeper is in sweeper support and during preseason ensure your training are high so as the players can have a high tactical familiarity at a high level I'm using Newcastle united and the other thing find most suitable players especially in the middle field and the center back with a good speed and passing and your team should have a good work rate every player should start with 13 points of work rate when signing and a good team work because you need good patterns of good play so as the team cohesion goes high which will increase chances for the AI to fevour you to win most of games and buy players from team which play the same system in their club which were playing earlier this will make them to understand the tactics fast even if it is small but isn't a must, for example I bought some of the players from ajax which had been trained to play a high press and a high defensive line

@stevenpearce8715 Жыл бұрын

i found a tactic that helped me win the league on the 3rd attempt. high up field press (off side trap) with a 433 formation. Until the AI caught on i was getting 8-0s and 9-0s with a second rate striker who ended up top goal scorer. Switch between that and the 4231.

Here goes..... (1) Wide defenders play best for me on Auto, then their play adjusts as I adjust overall Team Mentality throughout the match. (2) An approach that's worked for me is wide defenders on Attack (or on Auto with team Mentality as Attacking) but coupled with a CDM as Deep Playmaker or Register. This can create a pattern of play where the opposition just can't get out - if they win back the ball they pump it out long and the DLP or Regista has choices about how to immediately resume the attack. Just saying. Not fighting, just playing really.
