FM24s UGLIEST TACTIC... And It WORKS!?

[@Sgeeeeeee]

Its not ugly , this is the true beauty of FM

[@StingerNeilD]

Dream 11 in that tactic? Hakimi at WB? ...

Don Carlo taking notes as we speak

[@StingerNeilD]

He's always watching

[@VRNocturne]

My guess is that removing the Volante removed a nice link between the MEZ and the forwards as well as a place to send the ball in case the defense holds the initial attack. Then the Volante can either shoot from the edge of the box or link with the MEZ to move the ball towards your right flank (the WB and/or F9). Without him, the MEZ has to do all that alone and he might not be able to, especially if the opposition has a DM - he'll be in that spot uncontested by an attacker. As far as it looking ugly...I wonder if we put the tactics in real football in here if it would look "nice and symmetrical" as FM makes them look, especially when in possession since I've read that the formation screen is really just your desired out of possession shape.

[@StingerNeilD]

Nice analysis

[@HITcoffee]

I know it’s the end of the fm24 cycle but I love your vids. Thinking of the current ‘ Barkleysmen’ theme for me thinking of past names such a Rory Delap… and his long throws. How would you go about creating a tactic when selecting ‘play for set pieces’ ? Full backs with long throws? Left and right footed corner takers? High Free kick attributes? Tall, brave players to head the ball in?

[@StingerNeilD]

Summed it up pretty well yeah

[@lelesucks]

Reminds me of the Early season Salgueiros fc tactic

[@superidol5508]

Make a tactic with at least one player in the middle of every position

[@FM-JBG]

How about a 5 to 10 year rebuild with this? League 2 or National?

[@KhaosRising17]

Hey Stinger, its my crazy ass again... here is a serious of tactics for ya - the Numbers Formations, i was the one that brought you the Big 2, but can you get the other single numbers, the 8 is easy( its a 4-2-4 but WBs in WB positions rather than as DR and L & 2 Centre midfields obvs, i have it scoring buckets but it doesn't defend well, what can you create... i might screen shot the 2 n the 8 n tweet them to ya...

[@wcp20]

Training for role tactic gegenpress or possesion?

[@vmmg-ro3dm]

Rebuild Sunderland with this tactic

[@poiuytrewq1553]

Have to do something like this for my United save when Luke Shaw inevitably gets injured.

[@StingerNeilD]

Haha valid thoughts

[@darioabbece3948]

I think you could put a DLP instead of the mezzala in you want more cover. The volante is needed to carry the ball

[@StingerNeilD]

Like it

[@therealMeastro]

What if you did a formation like this, Lb rcb Lcdm rwb Lm rcm Lcam rw Lst rst Basicly 2 players per line of position.

[@StingerNeilD]

Trying to vision this..

[@benwilliams8667]

I think it's a thing of beauty personally 😂 I can see why a VOL is needed over a DM. I imagine a wcb will cover the lb area as there's the extra 2 cbs to cover, but without a VOL you have no creativity in the attacking mid area especially the left side. If the WP stays left and deep you'd be relying on the IF rather than letting him get into goalscoring positions?

[@StingerNeilD]

Good point!

[@every1candoit]

Can you make 3-2-2-3 tactics

[@apple-on5pq]

try using it with non league to see if this tactics works with players with very low attributes

[@StingerNeilD]

Bradford was pretty low dude

[@apple-on5pq]

not low enough comparing to some Asia semi-pro teams

[@xSteffs]

I have an idea. Make a team of perfect players and prepare a tactic for them to lose as many games as possible.

[@StingerNeilD]

The 1-1-8 springs to mind

[@sangwoo8651]

Im gonna try this tactic and see how it goes

[@StingerNeilD]

Good luck

[@neeleshkumarvishwakarma]

Can you rebuild barcelona with it pls pls

[@andrewtaylor6263]
