Choose a good tactic.

The tactic you choose is one of the most important decisions you have to take , if you have a playing style with short passes you can't use 5-4-1 or 4-5-1 , if you have a playing style with long passes you can't use 4-3-1-2. And others, I will tell you some tactics for some playing styles.

Long passes : 4-2-4 , 4-4-2 diamond .
Short passes : 4-3-1-2 , 4-2-3-1 , 3-4-2-1
Defeding : 5-4-1 ,4-5-1
lots of passes in attack :4-2-4 ,4-3-1-2 ,4-2-3-1
lots of dribbles : 4-4-2
close passes in attack 4-3-3 , 3-4-3.
side attacks : 4-2-4 , 4-2-3-1

the tactic you choose depends on what style you play.

I have the 4-2-3-1 tactic... And the 3-5-2 speeper in the tactic B.

I am pretty sure we all know all. Why stick to a style that you are uncomfortable with? ;)

Never use the sweeper formation, a one touch can make quick work of those

I realise that and that is why I change my secondary formation to 352 instead of 352 sweeper :o

Well, but it's essential for me against long ballers. That's why my second tactic is 541 sweeper. And I want to avoid being attacked so easily over the wings, that's why I chose 5 defenders instead of 3.

I do the swepper tactic :)



Yeah for me too, its esencial vs long ballers.

My second tactic is 3-5-1 Sweeper, 'cause although it's weakness is to wing attacks, they don't normally amount to much if you send one of the three defenders across. Plus the 5 midfielders help a lot in halting the attack before it starts, as the best way to get through is with a long ball, but then the three defenders get them with ease. Just make sure you stand your ground if you use it.

3-5-1? Your another players went on a toilet break everything? :p

Longpasses and one touch pass..its unfair game.. :((

Not unfair game. Rather it unfair players.

I don't need 11 players! ;) I did mean 3-5-2 though :P

I sometimes wish the old 541 would be back :[

Well, on to the post.

Short passes : 4-3-1-2 , 4-2-3-1 , 3-4-2-1
lots of passes in attack :4-2-4 ,4-3-1-2 ,4-2-3-1
close passes in attack 4-3-3 , 3-4-3.
side attacks : 4-2-4 , 4-2-3-1

I used all of this with 3223, I love the 3223 it kinda has everything you need for a great attacking.

Cmon,its not fair play like this.. :/

What I mean is that the game is fair. It is just that the users who are abusing the bugs are unfair. You are given a choice to play fair.

Same. I was boss with the old 541 formation :D

no wonder why ive been losing. i use sweeper formation which formation is good for long shots


fixed a messed up quote/marci-fcm

Long shot isn't advised here
