FM - Old Man Phil - FM 24 - How to Dominate FM24 - Learn Your Lines - Part 1 - Wing Play Style!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

Just one additional tip....FM has 10 pre-set tactics. This is what the AI uses for the opposition. You can learn to recognize the different styles of play by setting up a test save with a reasonable team....playing through the games. When you come across a vertical tiki taka for example then play that game as many times as it takes to make it easy to recognize that style on screen. Do the same for all the other styles. Thanks for watching

[@larsjensen4563]

This is gold! Completely changed my defence from leaky to solid. And changed my tactical approach and use of datahub. Thanks!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

Thank you so much for your feedback. That is so kind of you and much appreciated

[@rspjfrost1400]

Great advice . In League 1 on FM24 currently, best teams are moving out wide to a big fella in the middle. Thanks!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

Thank you for your kind feedback. Hopefully it will continue to work for you

[@talesofthetapes1813]

At the end of the day, we just have to play the money game and build the best squad possible and then play however we want. But then again, getting results is a big part of the money game and this tip surely would come in handy. Thank you, Phil!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

a million ways to play it my friend....but you know me lol....I hate losing lol

[@angelobenito-aguilar503]

Cheers Ben my friend...thanks for your patience!

[@benhancock1601]

Oh and Newcastle ARE that good 😅

[@fm-oldmanphil]

They are with me as manager mate lolol

[@martsukiso]

Awesome video Phil, I will try to make a new tactic following your teachings.

[@fm-oldmanphil]

thanks for the feedback mate....remember it takes a little while to master this...because you have to use your eyes and remain focussed throughout the match on the I-pad. I'll be looking at how I use the I=pad in game in the next one, but you saw some examples of what I see in the example games in this video

[@rubenaraujo1485]

Excellent video, congratulations from Brasil!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

thank you so much my friend....hope all is well in Brazil for you!

[@blitzkriegbob44]

Great video Phil!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

Thank you blitz....means a lot to me

[@Sweetfly92]

"Thank you for everything, Phil! Very interesting lesson, but I have a question (which you might explain in the next video parts): against a team that uses a Gegenpress tactic, how would it make sense to line up with engagement lines in a 4-2-3-1 formation?

[@fm-oldmanphil]

defending against a gegenpress is a bit like defending against a tiki taka. We will be covering that in a later video mate. bottom line is you need bodies in midfield behind the ball...try a low block or mid block against them for now.

[@husseinlowkii6281]

​@@fm-oldmanphilI usually maximise the trigger press on my two DM so that they close down the opposition quickly

[@fm-oldmanphil]

@@husseinlowkii6281 yup midfield is where the battle is

[@Sweetfly92]

@@fm-oldmanphil thanks

[@phamdat9979]

Thanks you this video help me alot

[@fm-oldmanphil]

happy to help...there will be more in series....just building it up slowly!

[@dominicmeredith]

Does the same thing work in reverse? For example if you came across a team that played with a high line would you increase the directness and tempo?

[@fm-oldmanphil]

really good question and the answer is I don't know. What we are doing here is trying to get the opposition to play in a way they don't want to by limiting their opportunities forcing them to play a different way. It really shouldn't matter how you attack...you set your team up to attack in a certain way and they will get used to that. There doesn't seem to be a reason to change your attacking style. However that could be another video series...attacking against the various AI styles.

[@ADHDGamingme]

Just come across this - also do a Sunderland save

[@fm-oldmanphil]

thanks for the feedback...welcome to the channel....I haven't done a Sunderland save in such a long time!

[@vedranpopovic9570]

Phil what happend with stream yesterday ?? We were waiting, is everything ok ?

[@fm-oldmanphil]

hello mate....sorry I had my covid and flu jabs the day before yesterday....so was feeling groggy yesterday....i did leave a community message...guess YT didn't show it to you....all ok now and back sunday!

[@ichotw5766]

Ever played CM 01/02?

[@fm-oldmanphil]

I never did my friend....I didn't start playing until FM11....bit of a novice really :)

[@ADHDGamingme]

Does the familiarity matter?

[@fm-oldmanphil]

Yes it matters....as well as things like fatigue. But it's not going to have too much of a negative effect...at least I'm not seeing that....good question

[@ADHDGamingme]

Just played wing play team I used anmid block standard line higher tempo narrow slightly shorter 1-1 3-1 changed lower tempo much shorter dribble less and won 5-1 cmon

[@fm-oldmanphil]

This is great....love it! I just did a livestream with Ipswich and came up against stoke playing in a controlled possession. This is the hardest one to master and it turned out to be a chess game...so cool playing against it....eventually ran out winners by 1-0...very very tough to win...but the changes in the end paid off...great to hear this feedback......thank you

[@ADHDGamingme]

@fm-oldmanphil how did you tackle the control possession one?

[@ADHDGamingme]

@fm-oldmanphil I also played vertical tikki taka in Brentford I done mid block high line shorter passing high temp won 2-0 slowed pace down

[@fm-oldmanphil]

it was awesome....a game of chess....watch the beginners save with Ipswich that I just did today....It's the last game!

[@fm-oldmanphil]

I think you are learning quickly how to do this!
