I completely get that feeling! I've had many saves over the years where I've felt like tactically I just can't quite get things right. I'm no tactical expert but my best advice would be to choose the shape you want to build up in (2-3-5, 3-2-5, 3-1-6 etc) and then choose the most suitable roles for your players that will create that shape. At a club like United, you can often afford to do a little less with instructions and trust that the players will be good enough to get the job done.

Thank you! The skin is made by FM Rensie, and you can find it here: coffeehousefm.com/fmrensieblog/fm24-rensie-custom-skin The only change I made was once I installed it I deleted the fonts folder. But that's entirely optional.

Thank you!

Thank you for watching!

All will be revealed!

I'll certainly be trying to! Perez is attracting Premier League interest so if I can get a bid from him in the summer then Baro will definitely be top of the list of replacements!

Thank you mate, that's very kind!

This probably should have been the season where I tweaked my intensities, especially while the transfer ban was in place. Oh well!

Thank you mate, very much appreciated!

Sounds like a great setup, and a really strong start to the season!

Thanks mate! I have also created a version of the tactic where the second shadow striker is moved out to play as a left winger, but so far I’ve not needed it because of how the SS operates. With having dribble more on the DLP too I find that when the space opens up he often goes down the outside to get some crosses in too!

Thank you mate! The forwards are definitely the area I’m most excited by!

Thank you! Unfortunately there’s no real right or wrong answer to how many are needed for a good tactic. If you check out pontadelanca10 on Twitter he uses he almost all support duties for a really fluid approach, but some of the most popular tactics out there are all defend and attack duties and highly structured. Personally, I tend to aim for at least 3 support duties and no more than 5 attacking duties at the very most, but that’s not a rule I stick to religiously.

Cheers Phil, appreciate that! You know how much I begrudge praising city, but I can imagine that front four would be devastating in this setup! It’s definitely a lot of fun!

Thank you mate, I really appreciate that!

Thank you mate, really appreciate that!

What's your save at the moment? How are you finding Cautious?

@@onthebreakfm FC Volendam in the Dutch 2nd Division. Two big lads upfront, nearly every goal is a header. Need one win from three to qualify for the playoffs.

@@onthebreakfm even though we're playing cautious we scored the most goals and conceded the 2nd most

Excellent choice, I did a season with Volendam back on FM22 and really enjoyed it! I find with teams where I'm pleased with the individual quality in attacking areas I'm more willing to go onto cautious, which sounds counter intuitive, but if I trust that we'll score goals anyway then I can use cautious to try and protect us at the back.

@@onthebreakfm my thinking was we were void of pace so I didn't want to over commit, I had two big strikers Jumping 19 & 20 and a few players willing to get closer to them an AMC and two CMs on attack plus the wingbacks. So lump it forward and then support them from there when it's the right time. It seemed to work although we conceded far too many. We'd win games 4-3 rather than 1-0.

There are rumours that Aristotle is fuming not to have made the cut...

Thanks mate, really appreciate that!

Thanks Phil, appreciate the kind words mate!

That's true, I didn't do a whole lot of research into the situation but it seemed like the transfer ban started back in 2022, so there may have been a break in it or something that I didn't see. No complaints from me though, he should be a great player for us!

I do, desperately!

Thank you mate!

I don't use them personally, but they are an excellent tool! Yeah there are always solutions in a squad, some are just more hidden than others!

Thank you mate, that's very kind! There is definitely more to come!

I know what you mean, although there's no right or wrong way to play the game in my opinion, enjoyment is king at the end of the day. I feel over the years I've shifted from number 1 towards number 2, but the realism aspect is something I definitely need now. Even in saves with the bigger sides, I still like to make sure things are approached in a realistic manner, rather than just wonderkid hoarding.

The man, the myth, the legend!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you mate, I really appreciate the kindness!

Thank you mate, that's very kind!

You make an excellent point, and using the word just probably wasn't the best wording on my part. I'm certainly no expert on how the match engine operates, but my understanding is that playmaker roles are given an extra 'weighting' in the ME, where players will look to find them more often than other roles.

@@onthebreakfm In that case I recommend avgdad series on player roles in FM, it will blow your mind. Keep up good work💪

I'll check it out! Thanks mate!

Thank you for watching!

Welcome along, glad to have you!

Thank you mate!

Thank you mate!

Thank you mate, appreciate the support!

Thank you mate, I really appreciate that!

Thanks for the support mate, this literally would not have happened without it!
