I loaded up my FM06 tactics and I think so far they have worked. 19 matches and not a single loss yet. \o/ Bellamy is class btw
A diamond at home with Reina; Finnan-Carra-Agger-Riise; Alonso; Pennant, Gonzalez; Gerrard; Kuyt, Bellamy
Away I play 4-2-3-1 with Reina; Finnan-Carra-Agger-Aurelio; Alonso, Sissoko; Gerrard, Kewell, Gonzalez; Crouch
Simple reasons really for change in personel. Arelio is better going forward then Riise so he fits better into a system where fullbacks are heavily involved. Crouch in a one up front system works well when he has Gerrard, Kewell and Gonzalez around him and Gerrard and Gonzalez feed in crosses to him as well. Gerrards role in the diamond is a bit diffrent where we play wide and get the ball out wide for the wingers to run to the byeline and Gerrard should be able to sneak into the box and head in a few crosses.
Oh yeah, in one match I had Crouch and Bellamy upfront and I gave Bellamy (I think he was the left FC) a sarrow and kept Crouch as he was and gave Bellamy a crossing instruction. Time and time again he got behind the opponents fullback and he fed in crosses to Crouch all the while. Definatly worth looking at :thup:

Sounds well though ,i like the way you accomodate to your team's strengths.
I must be doing something right have won 3 out of 3 and have just fired my team up for their next game:thup:
Well I've gotten to a point where I have a template I try and use for all my teams. Obviously if it's a poor team you have to try and accomodate with what's available but a club with cash it's a bit easier. However in all FM versions it has been really to a users advantage if you have a striker with jumping, heading and stength all over 16 (at least). Think of the Klose type of striker. Mind you Klose has the added pace and bravery which makes him even more dangerous. Partner that with a pacy striker or an attackingly aware AMC and they'll score buckets.

This version has certainly brought out the tactical nous in me
I have been making tweaks,analysing my team selections every minute.
I always do in the friendlies. The friendlies for me take ages to play through because I base a lot around how it goes in those matches. Who plays well together? What partnership is the best? Is he still good at 30+? Is he good enough yet to play at this level? So my friendlies play a big role in a contract renewels, team selection, where are the strengths and weaknesses etc ect..
Shame it's only 6 months because I would of loved to strengthen this Liverpool side. I'm in definate need of a right back because I only have Finnan and tbh he's always underrated on FM. Also Kuyt isn't as good as I tought he would be so I need another striker with Fowler not grabbing a single goal as a fourth choice striker and Pennant is not good enough to play my 4-2-3-1 really and would only do good as a backup to a class right winger. Who would I buy? Simao, Defoe and Young who have impressed me so far.
