FM20 Tactics by Knap: BAD COMPANY

This is an elite gegenpress tactic for FM2020; short passing, extremely high tempo, heavy metal football. Think of Dortmund or Liverpool.

It has huge demands of the players. Physically as it is gegenpress but also technically as it has the highest tempo setting possible.

It also defends narrow, so there will be a lot of space on the sides, making it more vulnerable defensively.

This tactic creates overload on the right hand side. The attacking mezzala drifting out to the right allows the right winger to push up and support the ST. Overlaps both but overload on the right side.

Player Requirements

You'll primarily need players who are pacey and physical all-around. Mental stats are also adviced to make the right choices in split-second moments in-match. Attacking full backs are key.

BAD COMPANY - FM20 Tactic by Knap

"Bad Company" is a single tactic and not a set of tactics, which is a bit uncommon. Created for the latest 20.4.0 version of the Match Engine.

BAD COMPANY 4231 P101 EC CC

Bad Company should be more suitable to a top team, because it has high demands from players, both physically and technically.
