Brilliant content,I’d say the best I have found. The fact you show how to play the game rather than doing OP content makes FM more enjoyable. I’ve watched all your vids which help to no end and have improved my own tactics 👍 cheers
It helps for a lot more than getting attacking highlights. Build up doesn't apply only when you're starting from goal. The same setup you have for your build up will apply when recycling possession, so if you don't have it right, you will lose the ball a lot and fail to create chances from open play. You will keep the ball more and concede less, even when you're not a possession heavy team. A minor detail, but still relevant to add, the DLP in the video doesn't dictate build up only when he's making himself available and receives the ball. He will, as will other roles that do this, position in ways that enable progressing the ball upwards, so even when he doesn't touch the ball at all, he's still influencing the enemy pressing shape in ways that break it. The DLP in the setup used for the video could also go in center and do without the BPD. They both do the same thing, but since the DLP is all the way wide, the BPD has to step in on the right side. Anyone who's having trouble building up from the back and wants a simple setup, one BPD, any " normal" defender and a midfielder on defend duty is a functioning setup. The way build up works in the engine is someone has to take risk in defense to bring the ball out and someone has to cover. You don't need more than one role that handles risk taking, but you can still play multiple. Libero on Support(FM24), Advanced Playmaker on Support, Ball Playing Defender, DLP on Support, Regista work and maybe a few others I haven't bothered to test because I don't play Roaming Playmakers or Sweeper Keepers on Attack. For the DLP on Support it should be in the role's description that it states he will bring the ball out, but in general, it's not a thing that the game bothers explaining, yet it's critical to setting up any team. There should be an indicator when you pick the role that says more than just "takes more risks". The game loves not explaining the engine.
Nice video and tactic, I use similar tactic 4-3-2-1 Christmas tree but sometimes I use yours as 1-2. I dont like to play with IW, IF so I like this narrow formation. What I do here is to choose corners players of middle three player in your tactic CAR and DLP opposite foot, your left DLP right footed so he can move to center and play killer balls. I mostly use RPM-BWM-VOL or VOL-DLP-VOL
Recently (as in when i last played because exam season right now), ive been messing around with and finding success with Carrileros. While my specific tactic probably isnt the best (was messing around and wanted to change things up), i was using them with a back 3 (with a good Libero) + offensive wingbacks, 2 cartileros, a number 10 (AP or AM depending on specific plager) and 2 AFs. Id just won the treble on my 4th or 5th season with Frankfurt so by no means an underdog in my league matches. Lack of DMs was probably risky but my hope was the libero moving up would form a more traditional midfield diamond. The Carrileros seem to work well as they just kind of bind together all the shape changing jank, allowing for the creative players to go do their thing.
With lower tempo, you give more time in possession of the ball to the players, so I think would be good to use the team instruction “dribble less” to counter the tendency to dwell on the ball for too long. Your contents are very good thought and explained. Thank you.
My team has absolute no problem in building up, having 10+ shot and creating >1.5 xg per game. The problem is their conversion rate , averaging 11%, ranked 19th in the league
10+ shot outside or inside the box? I think u should make setpiece routine.. and in 20 minutes to halftime and fulltime play for setpiece and hit early crosses
Your the only one i watch now as i am actually learning how to play this game. I have af/if right and left attack.mezala attack .i get like 36 shots with only 5 on target. If there is a video i missed on this subject please let me know.keep up the good work. Oh it does seem like my own players are getting in the way of a lot of my shots.
The "fixing a striker who doesn't score" video could help, but it sounds like an ultra-attacking mentality issue. "work ball into box" could help as a TI to craft better opportunities, or adjusting either a couple of player mentalities down or the team mentality down. Lowering tempo might even do the trick - basically it sounds like your guys are taking snapshots and snatching at chances. Try one thing at a time and see what works - you wanna keep getting the ball up there but improve quality.
Tempo depends on a few things for me, whether the opposition press hard like gegen, whether you have high vision and passing and if you have some fast players. Low tempo is not key for me and with a positive mentality the team will want to control the ball anyway. My 2 cents.
True, I do favour the 4 - but take a look at the two Valencia thumbnail vids I did? Used a back 3 there, and touched on how I moved to CB-Lib-CB from a WCB-CB-WCB because of the attacking shape and player quality. Will thinking about a dedicated 3-at-the-back vid though
How do I find a way to keep it safer in the buildup but once I get to the final 3rd, for my playmakers to be making more risky passes and such? Sometimes it feels like they’re taking unnecessary risks on the buildup, but being super stale once we get to the final 3rd
short passing PI on the more defensive players will help a lot, mainly the CBs. Make sure the intended recipients are in the right areas too, you need to chart a route forward
Your tactics are very realistic compared to real football. You can manage the right level of intensity, which is very important if you keep in mind your squad has to play a whole long season. Very good.
@@theavgdad thanks man. i always try to keep my rest defence intact but they roam too much no matter what. i tried using balanced mentality but we ended playing without urgency
I manage Inter Milan in my FM23 save. If I'm playing against the likes of Man City and Liverpool, who we all know LOVE to harangue you for the ball, would it be wise to set my GK to SK-att to create that overload against a front three? Also, how do I outnumber the press in a 433?

some damn good points here! love what you add
Fair but 2 bpds and a hb is literally free possession stats. I always train one just because it’s fun to have 75% possession sometimes
Wow. That was amazing. A clue to someone who's been playing many FM's and didn't get to understand what was going on. Tx for this content.
AF and TF have been insane for me in the last 2-3 iterations. Nice to see someone else using it, underrated combo

Great video and explanation! I really liked that one can see directly in-game the things you are talking about!! Well done!
Glad you liked it!
Our step dad is back! ❤🎉😂
Appreciate the time you put into these videos to share with us mate! Hope the home life is all good too 👌
thank you mate! All is awesome but sometimes it's hard to find quiet time :)
Thank you, Coach! It makes sense. Back to the testing room, :)
You got this!
Do you coach in real life?

one hundred percent, they're absolutely brilliant especially when supporting flying fullbacks

I’m not mad for your break but I noticed you missing from my feed. Welcome back 🎉
thank you mate! :D
Thank you, great video mate 🤝🏻

Wow!!! Very good content right here.
Subbed immediately.
Good job sir
Much appreciated!

have you tried dropping mentality just a bit or "work ball into box"?
10+ shot outside or inside the box? I think u should make setpiece routine.. and in 20 minutes to halftime and fulltime play for setpiece and hit early crosses
@@theavgdadI have similar problem and my striker and wingers keep missing clear cut chances
@@husseinlowkii6281tell them to shoot less often if you haven't already
@@husseinlowkii6281 get players that fit your system and/or just simply better attackers
Build up is important! And when you do that, try to have two midfielders involved if possible
Binge watched all the vids. Gained a new sub ma g

Excellent video.
Thank you very much!
Are there any of your videos that touch on how to use three at the back effectively? A lot of your tactics seem to be four at the back
True, I do favour the 4 - but take a look at the two Valencia thumbnail vids I did? Used a back 3 there, and touched on how I moved to CB-Lib-CB from a WCB-CB-WCB because of the attacking shape and player quality. Will thinking about a dedicated 3-at-the-back vid though
Will check those out thanks

can you please make a deep analysis video on using rest defense and rest attack
great idea, I'll work on that for sure
