4-3-1-2 by todor

I play FM for many years and I never wrote about my experiences in FM. You all know very well that the tactics based on the players you have available. If you are a famous coach, you can afford to buy players that fit the game you are forced into. My tactic will bring you victory, but you need to buy players that fit her, if you do not already have. Also important to a few things that are not directly related to tactics. Create a team with at least 23 + players, and give everybody the chance to play. Players learn by playing and getting experience, will also not be dissatisfied.

Condition is important

I play the most with my favorite team AC Milan, combine youth and experience and it gives good results with this tactic. I made the first and second team, first team plays in the league, another team playing in Europe. With this schedule I keep fit players in both teams, and so both teams will produce better results in matches in which they play.

According to my experience, morale is very important, but if you have a good condition, you can easily upgrade the performance of games if you're in crisis results.

Do not place in the starting lineup players with condition of 92% and less! Only as a substitute during the match !

First, this tactic is only recommended if you plan to play offensive football and all players in the defense and middle must have a good defensive attributes.

FORMATION 4-3-1-2

I always play in this formation, only change a tactical settings depending on the results, even when I lose I stay at this formation but tactically trying to put stronger pressure on the opposing team back line.

TEAM INSTRUCTION

Here you have to recognize the quality and potential of your players and set your tactics in relation to it. Maybe Starting Strategy may be Standard, but if you have good players who handle the ball, let it be Controle.

Passing Style: Default until you buy all excellent players play Default, then you can Direct passing
Closing Down: Press More It is important to make pressing the opposing players in order not to easily organize attacks, bad teams under pressure are more likely to lose the ball and you will open the possibility of attack.

Tackling: Default It is important to you, all players in the middle, and defense, must have good Tackling. If you have players with good Tackling, good mental and physical attributes, you can set a More Aggressive. But if you do not have a lot of these players, set a More Aggressive, if you see that the players can not take the ball to the opponent in midfield and easy access to your 16m.

Primary Playmaker
In FM 2010 this is important rool for my team. In FM 2010 for me at postion play maker was Sergio Agüero and it has worked wonderfully over 15 seasons. In FM 2011 Demo i try Ronaldinho and Sedorf as playmaker but I was pleased with the results. For good 10 you need player with fine physical and mental attributs. Of course technical is important.

GK (Best: Rene Adler, Julio Cezar, Petr Cach etc)

Standard, but Mentality more defensive to prevent unnecessary running out.

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_R5XmbeI/AAAAAAAADXM/LrMT8I_6fUw/s800/playerinstructionGK.jpg

DL/DR (Best: Gaël Clichy, Philipp Lahm, Fábio Coentrão, Darijo Srna, Sergio Ramos, Maicon etc)

Role: Full Back
Duty: Automatic

Very important for this player is good physical attribut, tackling, passing and technick. DL/DR in my tactic play more in attack, and play more as wing, because need to have good attributs for midddle.

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_RhLZ4SI/AAAAAAAADXI/u_qTZph_fUk/s800/playerinstructionDLR.jpg

DC (Best: Alessandro Nesta, Giorgio Chiellini, Gerard Piqué, Nemanja Vidic etc)

Role: Center Defender
Duty: Defend

All standard, I personally prefer, a little difference in mentality, but both the defensive.

MC

I play with 3 MC but each has different tasks in the game. It is important that everyone have a good defensive attributes.

MC 1 - (Best: Javier Mascherano, Gennaro Gattuso, Esteban Cambiasso, Daniele De Rossi etc)

Role: Central Midfielder
Duty: Defend

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_R8XUynI/AAAAAAAADXQ/WOM2XmsQxkc/s800/playerinstructionMC-1.jpg

MC 2 - (Best: Pirlo, Daniele De Rossi, Xabi Alonso, Cesc Fàbregas, Xavi etc)

Duty: Support

http://lh4.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_SB91JBI/AAAAAAAADXY/veVJoHfD3Fk/s800/playerinstructionMC-3.jpg

MC 3 - (Best: Daniele De Rossi, Michael Essien, Pirlo etc)

Role: Central Midfielder
Duty: Support

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_SF8PoSI/AAAAAAAADXU/RMfy-O2QGv0/s800/playerinstructionMC-2.jpg


AMC (Best: Lionel Messi, Andrés Iniesta, Wesley Sneijder, Kaká, Mesut Özil etc)

10, such as Totti, Maradona, Messi etc is a very important figure in the game, if the AMC is good enough can be a playmaker, and it would further quality up. This player needs to be best, must have all the attributes for attack and defense so good.

ST

You can not play football with two strikers of the same type, they must differ in the tasks.

ST 1 (Best: Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Wayne Rooney, David Villa etc)

Role: Target Man
Duty: Support

http://lh5.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_wvz4y_I/AAAAAAAADXc/WfXqhLdMYtE/s800/playerinstructionST-2.jpg

ST 2 (Best: Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Fernando Torres, Samuel Eto'o, Gonzalo Higuaín, David Villa etc)

Role: Complete Forward
Duty: Attack

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_2ZZRJ0rGbuU/TMr_w-9omDI/AAAAAAAADXg/9yIasiPRKd8/s800/playerinstructionST-1.jpg

All this is in general, a tactic depends on the type of player. I lead AC Milan, and I'm not satisfied with many players, but the tactics and also gives excellent results. With several new players the game quality would be much higher
