Don't worry, I did'nt change any settings. :thup:

Sheffield Utd dominated against Bristol City in my game. Far higher possession, a third more shots on target, petter passing, crossing, tackling & heading.

Interestingly, Bristol City had zero percent cross success.

Problem is, Bristol City won 1-0, with the goal coming from a free-kick. I decided not to change anything, although 1-0 down at half-time, as they were actually playing well. They continued to play well in the second-half. How they lost the game is beyond me.

Perhaps Billy Sharp ain't too hot...

Am going to test this formation and tactics a little more, but I have to say, I still lean towards having two proper frontmen myself. Don't know what I'm doing with 4-4-2 formations specifically that's doing so well for me, but I get far better results than formations with a solo frontman. This flies in the face of what alot of people are thinking in that the solo-frontman formations have performed better on FM07 and FM08.

I'll see if I can upload my own tactics and settings for others to have a look at.

well, I played against a average team in my division, had 31 shots and the game tied 0-0. Next game I decided to play less attacking as in the previous game I did get a lot of chances but not really good ones into open space.

Wondering how you fill the MC postitions, one DM/MCd and one AMC, two AMC, or two DM/MCd?

Finding the more defesive minded player gets more shots than the other. Ment to be this way?

Great thread once again
