To all Tacticians
While developing my own tactic, using some basic philosophies including some of the wisdom given in Googens 4-4-2 thread. I have made my own tactic which dominates possession in most games plays good possession football but lacks a real cutting edge in terms of creating a good consistent amount of chances throughout the game.
Defensively I have no problems at all very satisfied with the solidity of the defensive structure, but attacking wise the creativity of the team leaves much to be desired.
It is a rule of two 4-4-2 tactic with short farrows on the wingers where the total mentality is 100, team instructions are all mixed with mentality fine tuned and my closing down fine tuned (used googens experties to fine tune closing down wise, works impeccably well).
I do not believe my problem lies with the team instructions or individual player mentality and closing down but rather the player instructions otherwise, they are as follows:
FR RB LS TB CB Other instructions
GK R R R R R
FB O M R R O
CB R R R R R
MCd R R M M R Hold up Ball
W O O M M O
MCa O M O O M
TM M R R M R Hold up Ball
FS M M R R M
That is the basic ins and outs of the tactic feedback on how i could improve the player instructions to create more chances would be extremely helpful.
