Default A Exceptional Tactic 8.02 (with corners, freekicks, throw-ins etc all set up!

HERE IS THE TACTIC!

THIS DOES WORK! VERY ATTACKING AND EASY ON THE EYES

Seasons and seasons of work have gone into this project and I'm very proud of it.
The instructions below are a little rough, however the tactic is very smooth so to say... and shouldn't need much explaining.

However if you do have any questions please ask, I'll check the post daily for your needs.

Ok, firstly I must say this is a complete tactic. All attacking/defending aspects of corners taking, free kicks, throw-ins have been altered to work in a successful system.

Another little pointer, all instructions for opposing players are already set-up within the tactic. This means (apart from your full-backs, explained later...) you have no need to fuss with anything in the "opposition players instructions" via match menu, unless its to deal with an opposing AMC player. all will be explained below.

The Players ;

YOUR DEFENSE will need your Centre-Backs to have high stats in Bravery, Heading, Jumping (this is for defending ands scoring from corners) and also Concentration and Marking as they will be man-marking/tight marking opposing strikers. (Nb/ If playing against a lone striker, enter player instructions and alter one of your center halves to zonal marking, and untick tight marking)

Full-backs ; these lads benefit from good
Marking, Concentration as when playing against teams with effective wingers they are required to man-mark/tightly. This works a treat and doesn't hinder your attacking play. (Habib Beye (Newcastle) is a surprising hit here)

MC/dmc; Good at defensive duties but also since he is playing MC role Creativity and Passing are important, as he will be involved heavily in your passing play during attacks. (Benoit Pedretti (Auxerre) proved a real gem here, highly recommended)

YOUR ATTACKING MIDS (where the fun begins); Firstly your Centre-Attacking Mid must have high Creativity and Passing . and "Attempts Killer Balls" is useful. Also Long Shots as he will bag 10 goals+ in a season.
(Toni Kroos of Bayern developed beautifully here, however other choices include Van der Vaart etc)

Wingers ; this is flexible, but Crossing, Passing, Dribbling, Creativity is a must. Normal requirements for wingers anyways! Have FUN!

Forwards (BIG MAN, SMALL MAN) Does what it says on the tin!
Firstly you need a big strong striker who can head the ball, hold it up, while also being able to finish. (Strength, Bravery, Heading, Jumping, Determination) (Think Alan Shearer esque!)

And alsoa fast striker who is more than competent at finishing chances off.

OTHER NOTES!!!

Free kicks (IMPORTANT) - ever wondered why you 20 stat player on Free kicks hasn't scored that many... Here's why!
Not many know but you need more than that...
DECISION MAKING, FLAIR, LONG SHOTS, TECHNIQUE and FREEKICKS are a MUST, not just FREEKICKS!!! (also attempts "LONG RANGE FREE KICKS" makes a huge difference)

Back to the opposing AMC I talked about above. If they have a AMC you need to enter "The Opposing Player Instructions." Here you get them being Closed-down, Hard Tackling, and Weaker Foot. Also if this AMC if of a very high class (Lampard, Deco etc) get your MC/DMC to man mark him/tightly too.

Right I hope this works for you, I'm sure it will if you follow my instructions above.
FEEDBACK is most welcome and so are any QUESTIONS !!!

Cheers
Ali

Gunna try this now, hope it can save my season from being a failure! Man Utd have just knocked my beloved Liverpool out of Champs League and killed off our hopes of any chance in the league by beating me 1-0. Hope this can bring home the FA Cup

this tactic took you several seasons to develop?

yes,
I took several season to tweak each position and it's instructions, to tweak all the set-piece taking including throw-ins, the man-marking system. Comparing it too other methods and ideas, and in the end I came up with this... what I believe is the most effective tactic I could devise for FM.

I hope your comment wasn't a smarmy remark...
