Well to keep it simple for the new FM08 game coming out my only suggestion is that if some of the tactical masterminds around the forum could create threads that aim to replicate the style of great teams in a similar way to What marz done for cm4, fm05, fm06 so for example.
.arsenal 442
. The whole ajax system under van gaal
. Total football holland 74 and ajax 70s
.Brazil 1970s
.Catenaccio
. Cruyff dream team barca 1990s
etc ......... it would be nice if there was a tactical bible of explanations of these tacrics and other great teams in history.

That's a lot to ask for from a demo....

Methinks people will need to get their heads around first up to see if there are any noticeable differences to the style of play. I for one can't divulge anything just yet, but there are.

So I think that people will need to understand how the sliders all come together, how mentality affects things, how closing down works. Furthermore I'll need to start a thread to explain defensive line all over again. Defensive Line is not ONE line across the pitch as so many of us thought before.

I think people will need to get their heads around on how to put up a successful defensive posture before the go off and make those beautiful tactics from the past.

What I would suggest is people just starting threads now..to explain what the actual formations were like in the past.

Equally, I doubt if any of the tactical masterminds have the time to do that. That would be a serious amount of work.
