Break; Double Attacking Mezzalas // FM20

To be fair I wasn't planning on uploading the tactic, because I've only tested with a Worldclass team (Nugggs Chelsea), Elite team (Liverpool 1st season) and a good team that became a top team (Feyenoord).


Nugggs Chelsea
Nugggs was looking for more than 2-0 wins and I thought my tactic was perfect for his Worldclass team to do exactly that.

Tactic:

let your best set piece takers take the corners and freekicks. I like inswinging corners and freekicks but you can also do it outswinging.

Keep in mind I've rotated in all cup matches and the last CL match. Played 25 competitive matches (NO friendlies) and these are the results:



Red card? Don't care!

Chances



Liverpool Holiday all season 5x

I have tested the tactic with Liverpool season 1 in FM Touch and played the 1st season five times. Did not set training and only set main GK in preferred formation, no transfers. Set the tactic and went on holiday for the whole season. Achieved average 80% winrate. Won the league every year, won carabao 4/5 times, Champions League 2/5 times and lost 2 finals. Average home points per game 2.75 and away 2.26. Conceded .62 goals and scored 2.7 per game.

Feyenoord

My main save is my Feyenoord save and these are the results of a full season:





If your opponent only defends and counters you can go balanced instead of attacking

Training I sometimes use RDFs template or my own depending on the amount of matches in a week.
Just 1 match?
2 matches?

And RDFs zero matches schedule:

I always train players in the positions I play + I take control of individual training and their player traits to train (for example likes ball played into feet.)
as you can see in this example with Camavinga


Good luck everybody and have fun!
