DBecks7ManU = lol you worried the hell outta me with that loss to RedStar! good job you just mis typed the score

mattiebarr1 = my current game is with westham, i made afew sigings though and got a couple of decent players on loan (Seb Deisler!), and im currently top without a loss.

gibson1314 = As 'Jan911' commented the wingers are set to swap positions, if u read my first post i said you should switch this off if you dont have wingers capable of playing both sides relatively well.....although it does lose markers.

-I'm aware of the defenders occasionally giving the ball away but not really found a partically effective manner to deal with it. I dont want to change the fundermental tactic too much as it's proving a mssive hit for everyone.

-I'm very intrested to hear peoples reactions to set-peices....i seem to be letting quite afew in hece i'm owrking on set-peices for the next version.

-Again ALL posative so far, amazing, cheers.

currently doing a bit of experimenting with your tactic, hope you dont mind "fuss" instead of using zonal marking i have tried man marking, after 10 matches without winning i won 3-0 away and looking quite good defensively so i was wondering if some of you guys have tried the same?

Not getting much luck with Farnborough even with changing to man marking although better than most tactics I've tested on here.

Ok so i have started my 3rd season as the Ipswich gaffy and after a good pre-season with this tactic which included two 8-0 wins and a 2-0 win over a full Chelsea team i went into the new season full of hope and 5 games in i am happy so far!! Unfortunatly i do not have wingers who can play on both wings so i have had to turn off the swapping.

Burnley (A) 2-0
Cardiff (H) 2-1
Derby (A) 1-3
Wolves (H) 4-0
Walsall (A) 2-1

4 from 5 wins with the only defeat coming against Derby, this was mainly because i had 4 players injured during the game went meant i was playing players out of position and had to play the last 32 minutes with 10 men in which they scored 2 of there goals. Currently sitting 4th with Villa, Fulham and Palace ahead of me, hopefully the tactic can continue performing for me and i can get into the premiership at the 3rd attempt.

Trents- Ypu're the first person not to have sucess with this tactic, I'd like to know the problems you're having....ie lack of goals...too many conceeded...or team generally out of shape atm.

Putting the 'fast-paced' striker into an AMC role with farrows works wonders against teams with a strong midfield. Obafemi did a great job against chelsea and arsenal for me in that role, even contributing a goal for Ameobi.

Hi FuSS, after seeing the positive feedback in this thread I persevered and have started my 4th season in Conf South as follows:

Played 13
Won 7
Draw 4
Lost 2

A massive improvement and even the losses were close matches. The thing that worries me is as usual using the same tactic, AI figures you out in the end. I think you are onto something big here but would like to see tweaked versions for home and away to keep the AI on it's toes.

Will keep you posted.

i change the ML/MR to AML/AMR because my wingers can't play well assigned to ML/MR...i'll give it a try after i signed some nice replacement...

I'm using the tactic as Tottenham and its working quite well.

My losses were the first game of the season against Sheffield United and in the league cup third round away at.... Brighton! Best results were probably a 4-1 away win at parma in the uefa cup, 5-2 home win against pompey and 3-0 and 3-1 wins over Bolton and everton respectivly. My only slight gripe with the tactic is that my two strikers hardly ever pass the ball, I mean berbatov passed 14 times last game and defoe only 5 times even though berbatov scored 2 and defoe scored three. The tactic is great though other than that small problem and the strange losses to sheff u and brighton

Tweaked it to suit my players and also to fall into line with my ethos (regarding more freedom of creative expression). Very very subtle changes by the way.

Man Utd 2 Spurs 3
Spurs 6 Chelsea 2

I think it works
