I have been using this tactic (4-2-3-1) with Utd/Arsenal/Liverpool and achieved success with all three.
I have won the league, champions league and FA cup with all three. (League cup seems to be an enigma however!)
What i am asking for is for others to download and TEST this tactic and see how it works for them. I cannot be confident it will work for everyone without tweaking but give it a go and provide some feedback.
NOTES: in order to get the lone striker more involved, remove the FARROW from the AMC and change the arrows on the AML/AMR to be FARROWS also. Increase the creative freedom of the striker to much. It will still be the AMC who gets most of the chances but the 2 MC's should also chip in with some stunning long rangers and the striker should get a fair few tap-ins. The 2 wingers-cum-strikers also score quite frequently.
I havent managed to completely iron out the defensive frailties so if anyone suceeds with this please let me know. Using the 'opposition instructions' to tight mark both forwards and close down often both opposition wingers has been working quite well for me, although an opposition AMC can cause problems unless an MC is specified to mark him.
OK, managed to upload the little bugger. This tactic has brought me much success, which is surprising as i basically stumbled onto it by constantly tweaking. Please feel free to try it out and let me know your thoughts, hope it brings as much success to you! http://www.savefile.com/files/1152424
More information on your tactic please, or I'll have to close the thread...give some basic information about the tactic..doesn't have to be a thesis..at least it gives a good idea to people what you hope to achieve.
Things like what to look out for..what's the attacking edge..any special kind of players to use...that kind of stuff.
At least people who test it out will then be in a better position to give feedback..and a better thread title..if you want people to test it ...then fine..if you HAVE tested it and it works well..then give as information as possible so you don't have to keep coming back and saying the same thing over and over again
Apologies Rashidi.
The tactic is a 4-2-3-1 attacking formation. It utilises a slow/narrow/mixed passing style and for me has dominated chances created and possession. The most important player(s) in this formation are the AMC who gets most of the chances and the AML and AMR. The ST doesnt see too much of the ball so preferably a strong player who is decent in the air to get amongst them.
The back line is a busy one, always harrassing and closing down the opposition. The 2 MC's should be decent stamina and passing wise as everything goes through them. Not a lot else to say except that this has been working very well for me. Any thoughts/opinions/ideas/feedback welcomed.
