i've been playing CM/FM since 2001 but i never managed to get past the oppositions 4-4-2 tactic.if you have any tactical tips for me i would be grateful.
i have already said to you.
if u are playign with the 4-3-2-1 formation then u have to have one good DM and he has to be set as a DM!
he is gonna be infront of the central defenders, his mentality should be set defensive. creative freedom should be normal and far away from much because he has to be back helping out.
forward runs rarely. run with ball rarely. through balls often.
simple as that. then u will see that ur opposition wont come through easily as they do.
and at times u have to play a bit narrow when ur defending. and ur fullbacks should close down in own area. why? because otherwise they will be closing down far to up the pitch and if someone gets past it will open up.
