I have recently entered my 3rd season with my beloved Arsenal. Progress has been steady. Season 1 I scraped 4th (surprise surprise!!).

I decided to move my two CM's (wilshere and ramsey) down to DM's playing as a regista and DM respectively.

It certainly helped, we lost the title to Chelski by a point on the last day of the season so definitely progress.

In the summer I decided to heavily invest in beefing up my defense as I felt we lost the title in the first 3 months of the season by conceding too many goals.

You can see in the screenshots my new additions and the roles they...]]> Mon, 12 Jan 2015 17:46:25 -0000 kumutunal - My narrow 4-1-2-2-1 that made everything awesome Sun, 21 Dec 2014 01:49:44 -0000 naveed01 - Lower League 4-5-1 tactic Fri, 14 Nov 2014 10:50:38 -0000 Obama420 - Attributes for through balls?

This later tactic (which you have to set on "counter" in fm14) I gave the link for, you have to have two centre forwards one of which should have a good finishing ability. Set the two side defenders as WB->Automatic. Also, set the defensive mid player as Half back so that you have more defending power. The two centre mids, one of them should be DLP->Support or DLP->Defend and the other one can be CM->Support or BBM->Support. Your...]]> Thu, 23 Oct 2014 16:09:50 -0000 jamos316 - help with tactics
I am the manager of Spurs and in year 2017. I have tried to create my own tactics and have failed, what i am doing now is downloading other tactics. I have heard that this is not great as you need a tactic to suit the players you have and a downloaded tactic will not do that.

I am thinking that I should be creating 3 tactics for 3 different situations, these situations are:-

I think your best players are Quagliarella and Sanchez Mino, so you're gona want to play a 3-5-1-1, you've got alot of strong CBs that can be covered well, with Darmian on the RM and Moretti LM both attacking and defending you should be able to do well and aim for a UEFA League Spot, or even to win Coppa Italia.

edit: if you really want to download a tactic theres a Conte based tactic in the download section up for download.

Hope that helped, good luck.]]> Sat, 04 Oct 2014 10:54:34 -0000 jordan51 - Best tactics for Torino FC Sat, 04 Oct 2014 10:29:04 -0000 Toon - Couldnt Buy a Clean Sheet!!!
