You can usually use this 3-striker tactic against almost any formation.
Except tactics that utilize 1 striker, 2 wingers and no central attacking midfielder. Fr example, 4-1-2-3 DM (4-3-3 Wide) and 5-2-3 Wide.
When you face those formations, use my other FM18 tactic: Suk Sam 4-4-2.
For now, I think this is the most overpowered formation on the full version of FM2018; using 5 backs and 3 strikers.
Just plug & play.
Suk Sam 5-2-3 Results
Here are some results.



General team training : balance - average (in case of 2 matches in one week, lower this to 'low')
Match preparation : leave it to your assistant manager
Corner kicks : MCR or MCL
No opposition instructions (during match, you can set some OI's following your assistant's advice)
Cheers.

probably yes..
I'll play fm2018 sometimes and consider for updating this tac.
sorry I'm late.
don't let the assistant manager handle the individual trainings.
you should adjust those by yourself thoughtfully.
Monster tactic, i'm crushing every game in the danish superliga with AGF.
I got one important question though: It seems as if my players training progress has completely stopped since i started using this tactic.
My players were all improving fast with my former 4-2-3-1 tactic, and was wanted by bigger clubs across Europe. During the six months I've used your 5-2-3, unfortunately the progress has completely stopped, and my best talent is no longer wanted by anyone, eventhough they perform well on the pitch and is playing for the national U21 team.
I have decent personnel, and like I said: The players were improving fast before.
So, how is your player's training progress with this 5-2-3 tactic? I hope you can find time to give me input and maybe a few pointers. At the moment I have my assistant handling my teams general training and the individual training for the first team.
All the best,

because of their position in corner kick situation.
strikers will get attacking stats easily
Best individual results ever in Champion's League (8.72 for Guillerm 19 years old)
6 trophies in 1 season^^
thx for your comment.
I always use this with 'attack' mentality.
2 box-to-box midfielders seem very effective! thx.
I'll try it.
- Do you use this tactic always offensive even on the outside ?
- What are you doing against big teams or better than you ?
(sorry for my english i'm french as you will have guessed)

oh. thx for your comment.
you must be a twitch streamer, right?
anyways, I'm really enjoying my save with this tactic. haha
that's weird.
I'm playing now AFC Wimbledon.
I played almost matches with this tactic.
and so far, 1st place.
I thought it could be for the type of team and started a season with the watford, the first 5 league games won 1 and lost 4, (the one that wins by chance) I do not know what I'm doing wrong.
Thank you
your comments are really helpful me to determine how i make other tactics.
