Your "normal" tactic is absolutely quality. All you need is a quick striker who can finish. Interestingly, I found it plays better without using a target man at all i.e. just using the tactic as is without dropping a target man into the targetman box.

Could I just ask what's the thinking behind the corner and free kick set up? The corners especially with different setting for left and right corners. Cheers and good work :thup:

Hmm.... the tactic is doing ok for me but I'm still doing rubbish.

Thanks for that tip. I'll be sure to try it out. Do you remove the "cross to target man" from the fullbacks' and wingers' player instructions? Or just leave it as is, but without a Target Man in the box?


The theory is that by using variety, you are more likely to find the opponent's weak spot within the 90 minutes. In practice, it works for me, i.e. I have the most goals from corners in the league. Find myself scoring one from a corner about every two matches. Not saying it can't be bettered though.

I agree about the Normal tactic, I beat Barcelona in the Champions Cup quarter-final with it, 4-2 on aggregate.

But I used the Defensive tactic against AC Milan in the semi-final, both home and away, and won 3-2 on aggregate.

The Attacking I have found to be very efficient when I go behind.

From 1st January 2008 (in the game) to 3rd May, where I am now, I have only lost once, to Barcelona in the away leg. Have won the premiership, and have the FA Cup final and Champions Cup final to play. So for me it's working a treat.

Still haven't beaten Man Utd, drew with them 3-3, but it was an exciting game at least.
