The FM16 Tactics
Fc Basel was the club lucky enough to be graced by the tactics of Ioannidis. I made some mistakes at the beginning of the season like playing Samuel in defense and Janko as the striker I say this because they are extremely slow players and were hindering my progression. Samuel was targeted at the back and long balls kept bringing to light his lack of pace and because of Janko my team was slow going forward depending on where he was playing. I signed forgotten man Kerrison on a free and my team immediately became dynamic and unpredictable in attack.One tip for this tactic is the players swapping positions but if you don't want to have your players swapping because of a lack of quality in certain areas you could take off swaps. My team was aggressive all the time it showed they wanted to play for the badge. Constantly more fouls more shots and more yellow cards than my opponents. I was very pleased with this aspect of my team.
