hi there! can you switch the duties of two center backs? i've got a left-footed ball playing defender and barely have anyone that can play as bpd and right footed right now

Will there be a last update of this tactic or not?

Prolly best to watch the streams I do Fazed. If you are expecting to use a formation and win the league without having familiarity, morale and the players for it, you're gonna struggle. Im live at 19:00gmt. Come see how we use it! www.twitch.tv/the_reckonist :soccerball:
Fazed 19 Apr, 2017 @ 10:36am 
this formation sturggles so badly when you come up vs half decent sides, poor defending, cant win the ball, cant keep the ball just not working at all for me very mix results very inconsistant

Thank you! It has slightly improved for me with this version. You are right about that. Maybe my top striker is the problem at this moment because he is really complacent most of the times XD. Anyway, it's really an amazing tactic. And it helped me win allot of prices. Keep it up!

@Unknown You're describing problems that were an issue in the 17.2 version. The striker not scoring as many has been addressed with a DLF:A and I got Troy Deeney to score 31 in a season doing this. Ive not had those problems with the 17.3 update. As for The wider remark, just click one level WIDER than is listed in the tactic. :soccerball:

It's an amazing tactic! I've been using it since I found on FM2016. Thank you so much.

I just have 2 questions. First is what do you mean with click play ''Slightly Wider''? because the tactic is already on ''Fairly Wider''. Do you mean click ''Fairly Narrow'' ? Also my striker always has trouble scoring with this tactic. My midfielders and inside forwards score allot but my striker never does that much. No matter who I put on that position. He normaly gets a low score too. Its not a big problem because I still win matches but is there maybe anything I can do to make my striker get some goals sometimes?

So far 4 games into my new seasons as Arsenal using this tactic, only brought in Origi and Ginter in the transfer window but we're scoring and remaining solid at the back and just blitzed Bayern 3-0 - tactic is working great so far, 4 wins from 4
Fazed 18 Apr, 2017 @ 11:17pm 
Ok, I'll give it go see how it works out results are not terrible, struggling to score most games now lol but that could be down to many things, I don't lack quality playing Chelsea second season 4th after 12 games, dybala up top, still got hazard. Maybe just a dip in form, I'll stick with because tactic does play well
Reck  [author] 18 Apr, 2017 @ 3:07pm 
@Fazed if you mean you're starting the matches slow. Rev up your team prematch. (these things tend to have nothing to do with the tactics you are using)
Reck  [author] 18 Apr, 2017 @ 3:06pm 
@Fazed Thats not the tactic! Thats your players LOSING CONCENTRATION. ten mins before half/full time try a shout to "KEEP CONCENTRATION" It will help tonnes. :soccerball:
Reck  [author] 18 Apr, 2017 @ 3:05pm 
@momentum101 Yep. Go for it. Id tuck in the IF:S (by clicking off "Stay Wider" though. Then its just like the old tactic just less risky. (I wouldnt play CWB) :soccerball:
momentum101 18 Apr, 2017 @ 8:49am 
hey man love your tactics , been following your stuff for a while , just wondering about the lb postion ,(leighton baines) if i someone younger and physically able should i copy the right backs postion ?
Ouch1123456 16 Apr, 2017 @ 9:04am 
Just going to start a career with this tactic now see how it guys, will keep you updated!
Original Sarky 14 Apr, 2017 @ 8:18am 
Used your tactics before and had success, so will try this one in my online save. Im Leverkusen in 2024
Reck  [author] 12 Apr, 2017 @ 5:49am 
Updated a short section on OI's.
Greeny 12 Apr, 2017 @ 2:57am 
used your tactic all of FM16, half way through my fourth season my other tactics have stopped working so let's hope yours is amazing :)

hi .. you have tweaked the Left IWB to accommodate Leighton Baines due to waning stats. If my team has a young accomplished LB/LWB.. can i switch the IWB to follow suit as per the RWB settings?
Reck  [author] 11 Apr, 2017 @ 2:58pm 
I never set OI's in stone. Its foolish. Adapt them before every match.

Did a video for my '1 tip a while back. Hope it helps.:soccerball:

Hi do you use OI?
AllanLetsPlay 11 Apr, 2017 @ 1:19pm 
just about to test this one out
LynTheSpursyOne 11 Apr, 2017 @ 1:02pm 
4 things i notice 1. ai have less shots but still score 2. always bottle 1 goal leads 3. cant defend concers 4. AMR (IF on SU) does nothing

ive also been using 4-3-1-2 tactic for a while with liverpool and works well for me (liverpool really difficult to get decent tactic to work for team)will try this one
Beevster 11 Apr, 2017 @ 11:00am 
Been watching the twitch broadcast, really sound guy with amazing tactical insight. You wont go wrong having a peek into his brain! lol
Batang_Batibot 11 Apr, 2017 @ 10:49am 
Hi. I've been using your 4-3-1-2 tactic, and still works wonder. Good job Reckonist. Bring us more tactics. :)
armpro 11 Apr, 2017 @ 10:28am

Reck  [author] 11 Apr, 2017 @ 10:26am 
If anyone OTHER than my friends list wants to comment, that'll be Greeeat :D :soccerball:
jameslacey99 11 Apr, 2017 @ 10:24am

olliepack 11 Apr, 2017 @ 10:08am
