Default Discussion on 4-4-2 for FM 7.01

Playing with flat banks of players, i.e.:

GK

DR DC DC DL

MR MC MC ML

FC FC

I, along with many others have been struggling to get a 4-4-2 tactic that works consitently.

I had devised a relaible tactic prior to the patch for FM 2007, but things had radically changed since.

I've tried a few things which seem to work, but after a couple of games it's same old story. I'm not wanting any of this "the AI is adjusting" balls.

I honestly believe I've given a good shot at trying to get back to where I was pre-patch.

Or 'us' I should say.

I'm Glasgow Rangers FC once again, and after scraping into 3rd in second season, my days are numbered I'm afraid.

One way to win I've found is to go 'on holiday' for one day on a match, I've done this 4 games in a row, won every game and not conceded a goal.

I could do this all season, but it's not playing the game.

The topic title has discussion in it, yet this thread fails miserbaly. Where are the instructions you have been using, to try and get people involved in the thread and give you a chance to start a discussion?

Also Cleon, please make sure your moderating is consistent throughout the areas you're permitted to 'govern'.

I will, but strictly want to find a 4-4-2 that works, it's now a challenge, I'm sure you can appreciate that :-)
