[@pez6905]

Am, dm, bpd and sk are literally the 4 meta roles for their position lol

[@royplays4634]

How to get player be good in dm? All cdm players are bad at it according to the circle thing in tactics and the players complain about it pre natch

[@dumhd_jay488]

@@royplays4634there’s a lot tbf. Just any proper dm that has like high defending and decent attacking/vision will work as long you don’t put someone with a dlp attribute on dm

[@austinmauger1724]

​@@royplays4634 convert short CBs

[@chriscvvella]

AM is ideal as on support its literally a blank slate and can set any instructions you want

[@UVIEL27]

Wingers on attack with cut inside is a combination of the IF and the traditional winger role of past fm

[@EstariaValens]

Trequartista is S-Tier for sure. You can never go wrong with a Trequartista. I have a love affair with the Trequartista role.

[@T_money1738]

Try CM on attack duty, it’s my new favourite role this year - I find that it is more effective than a box to box midfielder

[@jasong1713]

would you say its safe to play it as one of the cms in a 4231 no dms system, pairing with a dlp or cm(d)?

[@T_money1738]

@@jasong1713 I have never tried that to be honest mate - But I feel like this could work next to a DLP CM on support if it’s a gengenpress 4-2-3-1, if you’re doing this i’d suggest having an inverted wingback on the side of the CM just for balance as it sounds quite attacking i’ve played around a lot with roles and formations this year, but my favourite balance for a midfield is a DM as a DLP on support with a CM on attack (better than a BBM cm) and a Mezzala on attack, give this a try if your 4-2-3-1 doesn’t work out and you will not regret it

[@jasong1713]

@@T_money1738 Thanks a lot for the advice mate:)

[@lewisblackwiththenicehair]

​@jasong1713 having tried it in the past on FM22 I wouldn't recommend it tbh, CM attack does very little defensive work so it leaves big gaps on turnovers. If your AM can play CM then it'd work brilliantly in a 4-3-3/4-1-2-2-1

[@TheAccidentalPhotographer]

I would have agreed with Carrelero before BUT I used it in an asymmetric tactic where my right mid was a little light and the player I used (who'd previously been a DLP and a B2B) was incredible; the number of key passes he had was sensational, knitting the midfield play perfectly. Needs high aggression and workmate but also technique & movement but I was very pleasantly surprised

[@mattyzucks]

lol DW is like the most underrated role in the game. People just don't understand it or how to use it at all. I use them in a 4-4-2 wide diamond with two FB-At making underlapping runs, or even as the sole wide players in a 3-4-2-1. They are very very good and I would highly recommend using them in that setup over WB-At any day of the week

[@isaacng315]

Jake Cooper is a good creator and commentator, please use more of him in this channel.

[@fmscout]

nice one thanks mate!

[@soulsqueezer4022]

Roaming Playmaker with default instructions at Man UTD with Kobbie Mainoo. Best player in the legue, 10 goals 15 assists in the league.

[@christianulrich8234]

i watched the video yesterday already but i had an idea for your channel do a rebuild where you only use the best (or worst) player roles (or both separately to see if the results change) it would be fun to see

[@jackryan3800]

I completely disagree with your positioning of DLP. I play with one in almost every system and I often get good results and good player ratings. Perhaps it just suits my system more than the ones you’ve used. I respect that it’s your opinion, but for me, it’s been very reliable. Cheers

[@markorepusic23]

Dlp is pretty strong, i usually play Monchu as DLP, and his avg season rating is never below 7.25…same for other players that i bring in

[@Cool.Daddy.1973]

Strange because it think it depends on your tactic visions and the available players. I tried plenty of different tactics and no role was avoidable or "meh". And i tried many times a shadow striker but in my tactics the ss was never working rly good. So I changed him to a F9 and He played almost perfect - even his top Position was SS he was playing much better as F9.

[@kalakocheng]

finally some content that ive been waiting for. nice video jake.

[@fmscout]

Appreciate it matey!

[@bluey4you]

It depends on the tactic and how the roles interact together. A Kombination of DLF on s, Winger on a and Poacher is great in 424 tactics. AF , IF .. etc. are much easier to use effectively

[@Vadelinoz]

You damn right about Anchor, total spot on!

[@leonardobelchior9086]

DPL (in DM area), PF and DC (with cover focus) are my favorite roles in FM. As a LLM fan, tese roles are a "must have" in my teams.

[@stephengalanis]

WM is great idea. Insanely good. The only wide role that needs tackling. And so many people are gegenpressing, asking their wide players to close down and tackle harder. The WM does that. In my system, a WM on attack scores 20+ at a top team. And I have one on each side. The difficulty is finding wide players with high tackling, and I retrain defenders. You just can't find many.

[@ervanfrwz2624]

DLP has to be in my tactic every time in my 433 setup, so DLP is goat for me. And then other crucial role is CM in att role or MEZ, I just switch between the two. Idk why my tactic tend to depend on how good my central midfielder are lol.

[@alexanderkloss3491]

Until last week I would have agreed with the f9 being meh or even avoid, but I have tested it again and if he's not the only striker, it works really well. Pair him with an advanced playmaker and a shadow striker and you will have fantastic results of him pulling a defender out of position and one of the other two running into this space and scoring goals for fun. It is quite aggressive though and you might run into problems defensively when none of those 3 will really participate in the work against the ball...

[@sssondre_]

Great video man keep up the good work

[@fmscout]

thanks mate!

[@TorukMakto-i7p]

For "regista" role you need to have Andrea Pirlo type of player, everything else will not work like it supposed to..

[@nordvox]

SK WCB, CD. WCB W BBM MEZ IW AM T AF works well if it a tougher team switch to DW, its an underrated role. I had Oyarzabal as a wide RMD with PI as dribble more he was amazing

[@donatedpizza]

Keep up the great work FMscout

[@edfoxAFC]

So in a 4231 would the 2 mids work on vol and anchor?

[@amitmate]

Good work Jake. Keep it up.

[@fmscout]

Thanks man!

[@bushybrow]

i had fun watching this. thank you!

[@franepoljak9605]

Raumdeuter is a great role, I use it often wit a lot of success

[@user67999]

Agree, better than i thought

[@tdh2044]

Disagree with RPM and AM in MEH, and ‘usable’ is a very discouraging name imo. Should just be ‘good’ AM with personal instructions can be probably the most effective role in that position. RPM is pretty good depending on how you play and the other midfield pairing (I prefer it in the MC role and not DM)

[@justmeinit]

My ocd is going crazy with the colours in the chart red has always meant bottom to me

[@miketokles9451]

I have learned so much from your videos, this one is amazing too. Thank you very much man.

[@1_Kwabena]

I know you’re not much of a tactics guy Jake but you need to do some more exploring some of these roles you put down are great😭

[@patrykpatrykk9127]

Hello, I have a question during the season, my team falls into a slump around January and lasts for about 2 or 3 months, what would have happened if it had been avoided, or what could be to blame for this, tactics or maybe the players had improper training?

[@Footballover-t1r]

In my save i change the tactic

[@BettingAdvisors]

Great video

[@danielgloor6859]

Nice video. Just curious, because I have Zaïre-Emery as a carrilero and you said there are better roles (BBM you said was similar). Which would you say is a better alternative? Thanks!

[@takatorabata2979]

No no no AM, is great. Here is the reason: AM offer u a freedom and wont slow down ur tempo (unlike playmaker). I dare say he is even better than SS. WM is useable too. poacher is also useable, poacher actually create room for other players when there is no room.

[@ParetoEmperor-jp6ke]

Second Striker in Strikerless Formation, its Real Predator, Broken ROLE if you know Strikerless strategy
