It's no use having a squad full of star players without a decent way for them to play their football.

Default 4-4-TOON my 1st ever tactic release.

Ok all, this is the 1st tactic i have ever been confident enough to release. I do not profess to know the in's and outs of FM...and quite frankly i normally tend to download others tactics, in the hope they work for me.

FM 07 proved the hardest version for me... i got very little success with anything....till now! And so proud i am that i created it myself. It isn't perfect...but consistant for the most part. In 1st season with the default Newcastle squad:

4th place finish in EPL (was 3rd prior to last game..but we drew and Man U won to move above us).
Euro Cup semi-finalists (lost on away goals to Liverpool, who won the Cup).

Not too impressive...but when you consider i spent the 1st half of the season tweaking until i got it balanced...i feel i could have achieved much more..now in 2nd season and going strong.

I also had an away version...but scrapped it in the end...not as consistant as the home vers.

More to come

Ok, about the tactic:

Its a standard 4-4-2 with farrows on the wingers

The right CM is slightly more defensive

The left SC is set to run at the oposition and get forward. The more attacking of the 2.

The right SC is set to play a little deeper, hold up the ball, and look to play it through.

Overall the style is short passing and a narrow.

I will upload to FMdownloads.net, but the site is down for now. In the meantime, if anyone wants it, just say so and I'll send it to you.

Any tweaks or feedback would be nice. I feel this tactic could only improve with a stronger squad.

I find this tactic effective against the big boys... had some good wins and close losses. 2-0 win against Chelsea. 3-0 against Arsenal and 2-3 win against Liverpool.

Against most teams you will dominate posession...but even when you don't you can still get good results.

Anyone try yet?

Can't download from that site - keeps saying there are no free spaces for free downloads and the only way is to subscribe to premium.
