FM19 Pressing Lines in Football Manager 2019

[@ETWTV]

Long time FM player here who still gets a lot from this. Great content. Thanks!

[@JakeShaft85]

This video really helped me in my december+january bad spell (I always get in LL). In my mind I want to block it like Burnley with low LOE, but long shots in this game are very strong. In non-league an opponent with 7 in longsshot 6 in technic 4 in finnishing can shot 3 thundercunts in top corner for a hat-trick from outside the box. I used opponent instructions to press central players with longshots more, never more then one player since I don't want to get out of position. My misstake was to use less urgent pressing together with low LOE and standard or low defensive line, seemed logical to me. But after wathcing this video I changed to more urgent and it seems to've helped me a lot with long shots. Very nice video.

[@JakeShaft85]

I alwso changed to get stuck in, never realyl played with that before. Might play a big role forgot to mention. Still thanks a lot.

Best FM content on youtube by far. I adore these in-depth tactical discussions. Thanks so much Daljit!

The only formation I can see a wide defensive width work with is 5-3-2 DM, as in 3 center backs, 2 wing backs and a defensive midfielder behind the 2 central midfielders. In such a formation you basically have 4 players in the middle of the defense, especially if the DM is a more defensive role like halfback, anchorman or standard DM, which allows you to set your defenders wider apart without sacrificing the middle of the pitch entirely.

Low press 3:42 Middle press 8:36 High press 11:49

[@baris6722]

High quality fm material. Thanks!

[@YoungHoff85]

Great work man! Really appreciated! I am working with a middle press right now by myself. Have it set up almost the same except get stuck in since my players seem to think that instruction means "go out and try to break someones legs", I get booked way too much. I also have one question, maybe my idea is totally wrong. I play with a higher defensive line and playing 1 of my central defenders on "cover". My idea behind this was to 1. have an extra safety net and 2.since I only have one player with great (15+) concentration and decisions I wanted him to be more in charge of the offside trap. Does it work the way I thought or will still everyone in the line be in charge equally?

[@StreetSoulLover]

Loved the article on Tea and Busquets, great piece on defensive shape...very thoughtful and concise...

[@soulveiw]

5 fullbacks is standard for me, 4 first teamers and a youngster coming through who gets 10-20 games, great if he can cover both sides. Never realised that was strange. I play high press but rarely for 90 minutes

[@AbolishMondays]

Great useful video. One question : with middle pressing, adding "regroup" instruction could delay of few seconds the tackling and therefore winning of the ball? Would it be more suitable the counter press?

[@BusttheNet]

Regroup is a more defensive instruction, counter press causes your team to shift up to win the ball back and is a more aggressive way of winning the ball back

[@fzprof1756]

Prevent short gk distribution doesn't need to be checked imo. It can be used to make a weak team try to pass from the back and then win the ball successfully. Preventing short gk distribution on that team might make them more likely to ping it to a target man which may actually be worse for you. Selecting it against a team like man city makes a bit more sense.

[@BusttheNet]

Prevent Short GK distribution should be used carefully.

[@scally-yk8jt]

Against goalkeepers who have their weakness with the ball regardless of whether they are playing against Man City or SV Meppen.

[@VKestas]

What about teamwork as a stat for pressing? Is it important?

[@luminous420]

Hello the Pressing intensity when set to Extremely More Urgent in the Team Instruction, actually shows Less Urgent pressing in the Player Instructions though the bar shows it's full, is it just a UI bug or there's actually lesser pressing there? Thank you.

[@Linusovic]

Also wondering, did you figure it out?

[@SocialKhedi]

@bustthenet Is it possible to use the tiki taka tactic and still have your wingers put in more crosses? I’m asking because it seems like the tiki taka doesn’t allow for more goals as it was on fm 18

[@megathrash8539]

can you demostrate a tactic without pressing? My best tactics are pressing much more,but sometimes the players are too lazy and slow to press anywhere

[@JK_JK_JK_JK]

Can you please suggest best tactic to use with a 3-5-2 formation?!?! 🤔 I'm playing as Liverpool but just not scoring enough goals like I did in FM17 with the same tactic! 🙄

[@shivankbatra5643]

Same!

[@nenadristic6115]

Amazing

[@pablosanchez5909]

quality video

[@francesco4302]

when the pressure intensity has to be lowered?You are a top player, I hope you will sooner or later collaborate with some Italian forums

[@alecs93]

Thanks a bunch !

[@300bags4]

how do i make the middle press tactical style, its not showing up for me?

[@fulvioblizzard5826]

Thanks! 👍

[@Linusovic]

This is not in your howtoplayfm19 playlist. however good video

[@BusttheNet]

Yeah I didn't put it in my playlists, speaking of which I havent' really created any, yet. Maybe I should. Been a busy beaver

[@Linusovic]

Busy beaver indeed but your howto playlist makes me better at this game. Much love

[@Linusovic]

Oh, must have seen it on someone else playlist. I'am not sure how other people use your channel but I've learned alot from it. I think what makes your FM-videos interesting is when you explain how the game works. Take Care

[@francesco4302]

I noticed something,when the defense is high use tighter marking,when you use the standard and the low use get stuck in,why?

[@BusttheNet]

cos I want my players to win the ball in the mid and low press, its a bit more aggressive and they should be facing the players anyway. in a High press, they will be going behind them so hard tackling = yellow card

[@Daniele77ba]

Please if you go through Bari, bring me a drink. And a copy of Your book, obviously...

[@BusttheNet]

:-)

[@BoGdan1491]

Hello, I was reading the article on teaandbusquets.com site teaandbusquets.com/blog/defensive-shape-the-best-feature-in-fm19 and the settings are kind a different, in particular for the mid press.I dunno if on teanandbusquets is also your opinion, or is just Cleon opinion, but can you have an opinion between these 2 (article and your video) ? Thank you !

[@mrmcskitles]

i love you

[@np66uh]
