As I said, similar (somewhat based on his advice on my earlier thread) to Bluetoonger's.
Direct passing, normal tackling, attacking, pressing, no offside, no playmaker, no counter and no men behind ball
Individual off the top of my head:
- DMC gets normal passing, the rest team
- DCs and DMC get hard tackling, the rest team
- DCs and DMC get man mark, fullbacks and the two outer AMCs get zonal, one of the strikers too.
- set pieces: played a bit to get all my good headers up front and bad headers to stay back.
- DMC holds up ball
- fullbacks cross ball
- AMCs get forward runs and long shots
- One of the strikers gets run with ball
- Center AMC gets through balls.
That's about it. My motivation for going with this is the huge amount of AMC-type players I have in my squad (ranging from AMC to AM/SLRC) so I had to do something with those players. WIthout a good set up front, this is useless. Also very important: the back 3: 2DCs and DMC. Crucial to get it all solid.
If you don't have the players, don't try this. Fit the tactics around your squad, not the other way round. Or evolve your squad to suit whatever your fave tactic is.
I didn't get instant success, but over the last three seasons I've won the serie A, so it is getting me consistent results there. Goal scoring dropped a teeny bit, but conceding has dropped dramatically.
