Wow! You're breakdowns and explanations are so eye opening. You are the only, and i mean ONLY fut youtuber that actually knows what the instructions do. When you explained bonmati actually showing herself for a pass, i was mesmerized because this is the root of my problems im having in EAFC and why i think this game is unrealistic - None of my players do this fundamental thing we all learned as kids in football practice, where you show yourself or open yourself up for a pass. Even worse, they do the worst beginners mistake: They wait for the ball to come to them instead of running towards it.. It's like my players have never played football
Love to see 433 and posession getting love it deserves! Been playing 433(4) since beginning with long ball and posession and those work very well for me. Interesting to see midfielders and wingers having free roam instructions. Might have to give this a try. Cheers man, keep up the good work!
Just tried your 433 tactics today. Went to D2 start from D5 for me is crazy,I’ve been trying many tactics like 424 4321 this year but just feel something weird and can’t attack that well as those people who are using. It’s really helpful for me thanks your tactics video!!
Tactics were excellent. Your philosophy regarding anti meta and the game mechanics were excellent. Enjoyed playing chanps this weekend, learning to break through the press, using possession and passing was great fun. All in the kowledge that when the 71 depth is 'nerfed' we will be in a better state! 👌
I've been really impressed with the chances I'm creating, I'm playing the big majority of my games in SB as I'm trying to learn the game better. Now those games are shorter I need more chances to maximise points, this tactic has been a proper decent improvement. How would you tweak it to be more risky attacking if I was chasing goals?
I just want to say, thank you so much for this video. This helped me get 7-3 in Evo Lounge with an 80 rated team while everyone else had an 86 with a low rated bench. The players create space perfectly. One thing I will say is that you need a mobile striker, like Griezmann. Normally I use Jonathan David, and with 3* skills, okay dribbling & passing, and bad long shots, he just doesn’t really fit the tactics. It’s working fine for now though.
Really solid tactic and enjoyable too. One query, I find the CF is often too deep and not in the box to take advantage of any chance created. Is there any instructions to mitigate that? Is stay forward maybe the solution?
Thanks for the effort man!Usually I need 2/3 matches to adapt to a new tactic but I tried it this morning in division rivals and I went 7-1, finally getting to division 3! Great build up and surprisingly very solid in defence. One of the player I won against even asked me what my tactic was!
These tactics saved my champs. I was on a lost streak of 10 in a row then I put on these and won 8 games. Still not the rank I was hoping for, but they saved me
Been waiting for this!!! Used a very similar formation and loved how enjoyable it made the game.. I have found recently I have slipt into the 442 (bore) system. I need to get out of it and bring the fun back again. Top work as per normal!
When I combined slow build up and possession I felt like transition was slower so I switched back to direct passing but I kept slow build up, may switch back to possession after seeing this. Great vid lad 👍🏿
Great video! Ive been using almost the same instructions for a couple of days but in the 433 (2) formation with the striker as a targetman. Kept the dept on 71 but if i struggeled to reach my cdm then i lowered the depth slightly. Also I use possesion and balanced instead of slow build up, but slow build up is very viable. I dont use deep lying playingmaker, but i very curious about your theory of how that paticular instruction folds out ingame. Definitly going to use this formation! Keep up the good work!
Would be good to know what work rates you suggest for each position. For example I use Valverde as a CDM usually but he has H/H so I’m not sure balanced is a good setting for him. I guess you adjust the settings in line with those types of work rates or get a L/H player.
Perfect Gonna have Yashin Trail Robertson Blanc Eder miltao Walker Trail rice Rttk modric Sawa Rashford Trail griezman Trail rodrygo See how than pans out later in div 3
Hi. Should one of the CB definitely be H/H ? . There are only two good options to link for my team. One is rudiger who I didn’t enjoy and another is kounde. Still too costly for my coins lol
Been using the 4-3-3(5) since fifa 19 but just haven’t been able to make it click this year. Played one game and won 7-2. Most enjoyable game of fifa I’ve played in weeks
Nice video, definitely I will try it. I always struggle with my non meta players getting in behind my opponent meta defenders and letting me with no passing option. Maybe get in behind and direct passing works but only for those with meta players where you can only spam trow ball and shoot
Thanks for the in depth analysis. I’m interested to find out how this works defensively, especially as you have both full backs on balanced and the CF doesn’t come like your other variation. I suspect you are more open to counter attacks. Will try it for WL and let you know👊🏾
Hi mate, good to see your videos! been following for a while now. Can ask why i can't make quick passes/ dribbles. I am playing in PC and it feels like the defenders are hard to move and my there is a significant input delay causing for my passes/ movements and end up losing to pressing teams. Is there a way to overcome this input delay in EA FC24???
I love the video and the in depth guide, however I just can't get on with these tactics as much i really want to. Against the full press I'm really struggling to build up 😢
I find it hard to play this one, not sure what i am doing wrong if it is better for the players i play against or what... I find most trouble when the opponents team high presses and i have no one to pass. And when they have the ball the just pass through the middle, and my CB keeps them on site without covering. The previous 4.3.35 seems to be better?
Hey brother thanks for the video, in the instructions the deep lying playmaker does not appear, it only show me drift wide, stick to position and free roam? Do you know why?
(For D1-Elite) I played this at last months of fifa23. it was great with insane cm's that capable of doing anything. (99 jude, gullit etc.) But I dont think its great formation for now. players are limited and your cm's gets close to the striker while attacking and your possesion play fails especially when oppenent pressing with 71 depth. Reason is you only have one midfield, the other two already gone near to striker and waits for the ball. So, your five players waits the ball from oppenent's defensive line, if you do risky pass and achieve this its great but on pressure, you'll find noone to pass. Thats why I was forced to use switch-backs a lot. Its great for counter-attacks for sure. While your cm's going forward, they creates too many triangles. But you set your tactics to possesion play, and its just not working. The clips you shown are fast-build ups, going forward only. Which is it doesnt refers to slow build up/possesion play. Its better to use this formation for reactive counter attacks. Switch to fast build up and direct passing, you'll do better.
Got bored of the 4-3-2-1, win 3 games with your formation because my attack is great, the only problem is the midfield, I have gattuso tonali and Bellingham, should I change to something else ?
@@AlexionIQwhat would you suggest for instructions on rodrygo as the LW? Same as someone who has high/high? Also, how do you find yourself in transitions (to defense) with this formation?
My CDM doesn’t have the option for deep lying playmaker? Is that because only certain players have the option to have it? On the mobile app with Casemiro there, 433 (5) formation
first of all - thx for all your hard work - but it doesn't work for me - same pressure all over my players - can't pass to anyone - get random goals from everywhere - i think i'm done for now
It's not a miracle cure. Is there something you can see that is the major thing you are struggling with? Won't be linked to any tactic, but more your general play.
@@AlexionIQ the problem is not your tactics - it's the game - it's broken - and as a casual i can't spend hours on it just to learn how to deal with those BS red cards - all those cut back merchants and the pressure tactics - it needs a major MAJOR fix - but i do like your videoes - i think you're doing a great job - it's just a hopeless mess at the moment
tried this and played 8 games, I went 7-1 overall and I can safely say that this is much better than the 71 depth meta. I struggled with the 71 depth tactics but with this one I was able to create way more chances and wasn't scoring bs cutback goals. Thank you for the video mate it helped me a lot personally.
@@AlexionIQ might have been the fact I got matched against a computer player. They always feel like cheats. I have cross play off but somehow it gets changed
@@liqzEy.the formation doesn’t make a rat, the way the player uses it does. In past fifas I’ve used 5 backs cos I love wing backs in real life but I’ve never set it up to park the bus. Set it up as attacking and free flowing. It’s the community that ruins things.

Switch Modric & Bonmati around. Bonmati has finesse playstyle & Modric has trivela
Dude you saved my sanity with this video. Thank you. You earned my sub.
I thought i was the only one using 433(5)😂
Good video! I use Both cm to come forward and the one in the box and the other outside the box
Powerful 🔥. I've always been a possession player. So happy it's back ❤️

Thanks mate really helpfull n bring me promoted! I wanna ask, is it fine to make this formation to defend in 442? cuz i lil bit struggling at defends
You can....but I wouldn't suggest it
@@AlexionIQ or can you share how to defend in 433 or any tips?
Working on it
@@AlexionIQ will wait! Thanks sir!!🙏
Thanks for the video mate, this is a fantastic guide
Thanks pal
I'm interested to see how slow built up will change the build up because I love this formation with ball possession!

i qualified with your tactics thank u man u earned a sub ‼️
Let's go!
Nice one. What would you reccomend for a midfield 3, i have trailblazer rice cdm - rttk modric - and 2.2 mil spare for the rcm spot
Patellas.
@@AlexionIQwhat about sawa?
I’m using Sawa atm mate. Can’t recommend her enough. Incredible
Sawa would be INSANE
Perfect
Gonna have
Yashin
Trail Robertson
Blanc
Eder miltao
Walker

Rttk modric
Sawa
Rashford
Trail griezman
Trail rodrygo

Hi. Should one of the CB definitely be H/H ? . There are only two good options to link for my team. One is rudiger who I didn’t enjoy and another is kounde. Still too costly for my coins lol
No. Just make sure max one is H/H, not both.
Thanks. By the way these tactics are just fire. I don’t know or not smart enough to understand how you did this magic but it just works every time
😏😏😏
Been using the 4-3-3(5) since fifa 19 but just haven’t been able to make it click this year. Played one game and won 7-2. Most enjoyable game of fifa I’ve played in weeks
Love that!
I have Modric RTTK and Makelele, do you recommend another box to box for the other cm spot or can i use something more ofensive like Debinha?
Someone more offensive will work fine.
@@AlexionIQ Thanks! Awesome work!
What do you use on your left centre mid mate?
Nice video, definitely I will try it. I always struggle with my non meta players getting in behind my opponent meta defenders and letting me with no passing option. Maybe get in behind and direct passing works but only for those with meta players where you can only spam trow ball and shoot
Possession works nicely..just.means better movement!
Top tier cooking u helped me to dramatically improve my playstyle
LETS GO!
This is how I always played. I can't stand DP. Nice video man.
Appreciate it
looks great, thanks for the effort - do you think there's any way to fit Messi in this formation and where if yes? :)
CF. You might want to select stay forward and get in behind due to L/L workrates
Thanks for the in depth analysis. I’m interested to find out how this works defensively, especially as you have both full backs on balanced and the CF doesn’t come like your other variation. I suspect you are more open to counter attacks.
Will try it for WL and let you know👊🏾
Surprisingly, not that open! Let me know how you get on.
Going to try these out!
Yo alexion if I have kubo,diani, nunez and nkunku, where do you think each should play?
Nkunku CM. Diana LW, Kubo RW, Darwizzy CF
@@AlexionIQ cheers bro. Doing a rtg on the one and only darwin nunez
I like these so far. 🎉
Awesome guide will try it!
Update how you get on mate
@@AlexionIQ thanks man! I have both attacking fullback seems like a good one bombing down the wing
Get that full back going!
The auto press from opposition ream after losing ball drive me crazy..my player static,being marked all the time..ahhhh im tired
is this formation only working on new gen ?
Sounds great. I will try it out tonight
My man, got a feeling I am going to love this tactic with my Spurs past and present/evo team
Hi mate, good to see your videos! been following for a while now. Can ask why i can't make quick passes/ dribbles. I am playing in PC and it feels like the defenders are hard to move and my there is a significant input delay causing for my passes/ movements and end up losing to pressing teams. Is there a way to overcome this input delay in EA FC24???
Input delay is your internet or how close to the EA servers. Do you use a wired connection?
@@AlexionIQ , thanks for the reply. i live in southern part of India. have a decent wired internet connection.
I saw your work rate photo is messi not useable here coz he is low low
Same question
You can, but try get behind and stay forward in the CF position
So H/H for one of the Cbs? Is that essential? Because i can only see 2 la liga options that are usable.
No. What I meant was if you use H/H cb, make sure only one is. I prefer not to use any H/H cb.
@@AlexionIQ okay awesome! Makes sense now! Perfect. I was gonna say aha, thiught i needed rudiger on kounde for a moment
Good! 👏👏👏
Yes bro buzzing to run this
Update how you get on
@@AlexionIQ will do bro
I love the video and the in depth guide, however I just can't get on with these tactics as much i really want to. Against the full press I'm really struggling to build up 😢
Try going backwards sometimes. It takes a little time to get used to it.

I find most trouble when the opponents team high presses and i have no one to pass.
And when they have the ball the just pass through the middle, and my CB keeps them on site without covering.
The previous 4.3.35 seems to be better?
Cant wait to try it later today. Finally something different than 4222 or 4321
Update how you get on mate
I might’ve missed it but is modric (LCM) the same instructions as your RCM
Yes. Both centre mids have the same instructions
@@AlexionIQ thanks will try them out in elite Div after the psg vs Milan match n will let you know how I get on
Bro can i use this tactic on old gen? What do you think?
People have and been successful
Why did you decide against forward runs tho? Forward runs has been working so nice for me.
Because this is about gaining better control
Hey brother thanks for the video, in the instructions the deep lying playmaker does not appear, it only show me drift wide, stick to position and free roam? Do you know why?
Got to do on console mate. That instruction doesn't show on web app or mobile app.

Would you change anything for old gen 🤔
Don't play old gen I'm afraid
Stokes aproves so I'm here!
have you updated these tactics or still the same ?
Still the same. Although I'm testing some new ones!
@@AlexionIQ looking forward to it.
Does the work rates completely matter like I've got rodrygo who is m/m
He can do a job. Just not ideal workrates.
@@AlexionIQwhat would you suggest for instructions on rodrygo as the LW? Same as someone who has high/high?
Also, how do you find yourself in transitions (to defense) with this formation?
Probably stay forward for him due to the M/M so at least he is higher up the pitch.
Lovely tactics mate. Can play something resembling football now ❤️
🔥🔥🔥
In this formation can I use Harry Kane in the CF his 92 rated card
Yes, had quite a few people message me saying Kane bossed it for them in that position.
Can someone tell me please why I can’t see the option in my CDM to use deep lying playmaker setting in player tactics?
Have to do it on console. Web app/companion app it doesn't show
