    Thanks for the information, this has been really helpful as a newcomer. Am I mistaken or are Sections 5.2 & 6 missing? I was just curious about Facilities management.

    Cheers!

    All well in the real world, but is this game really that adaptable.
    I've not heard a game comment yet where a winger cuts inside and skins the defence to score, it's usually a shot from 25-30mtrs.
    Maybe we are both looking at the wrong stats.

    I have from time to time tried to follow the suggestions in regard to man to man and structuring an attack but it always backfires. Recently I set up a man to man in a league game vs a team i had beat by 3 goals the first time around. I ended up with a 4-0-4-1-1 and had 20% possession and a goal down at half. I changed to zone and from normal to attacking and barely leveled up at the 90th minute. Ended up with 35% possession much lower than the 60% I usually have. I very much would like to use specific formations etc but it seems to not work. Do teams react poorly to formation changes? The formation had very much fit the suggestions of Justdomes. Other times I have tried similar efforts I have had problems. Even directing passes to an obvious weakness seems to backfire. Man to man never seems to work even though the individual matchups are very favorable. Frustrating because it would be more fun if specific tactics and formations seemed to produce good results but I have seen little evidence to show they do. On the contrary they seem to hurt.

    I've never used MOM personally I don't think the game engine is right for it, it's to random in events, others may differ but I don't trust it.
    Out of all the the info justdome posted IMO the best you can adopt is counter and deploy with zonal.
    Select orders that best suite your strength and the opponents weakness. Eg, attack heavy defensive set ups with OS trap and defend strong attacking formations with counter.
    Don't be afraid to step outside the box with formations, I do it a lot with my formations, seems to confuse the engine. Today I played against a four man MF with only two DMC's directly opposing them, still had 72% possession.
    I rarely play the same formation two games on the run, so sticking to one formation has no advantage IMO.
    I have not played a game yet with less than 58% possession, I'm in my third season and only lost 3-4 games.
    There are many good tips in his guide, there are also a few that are questionable, finding the right balance is the key.

    -Would like to ask Accyrover that Section 4.8 is it reliable?
    -the setting is it set accordingly Offside Trap with whole pitch and Counter Attack with own half?

    -for the section 5.1 for legal and illegal formation setting.
    -the system is it detect accordingly atleast 1 ST, 1 GK, 3 def and 1 Winger for each flank?

    -if set red arrow means? blue arrow means? no arrow means?
    -can you list some examples?
    -ML(red) consider play like AML? DC (red) consider play like DMC? MR(blue) consider like DMR,
    Please correct me if im misunderstand.

    -I still confuse about the formation... if i change the formation during the live match..
    -system will confuse as illegal formation?
    -tactics changing while live match is it can be activate?

    Currently i had the doubt which stated above please try to help me answer if anybody able to answer...
    Millions Thanks in advance...

    Well, regarding the so called 'illegal formations'. I've been using a 4-3-3-A formation with no wing players and it works brilliantly. Two midfielders are AMR and AML, three are MC; three defenders, DL, DR and one DC and of course two strikers up front; hard attacking mentality and zonal defending, with of course no counter attacks. I'm having dominant ball possession with over 65 each match, 65 being the minimum when I face heavily defensive formations; the rival teams for these first five league matches didnt manage to net in even one goal against me. I don't know wether this also depends on the manager level because I'm still at level one.

    I do have two pretty good, 4 star quality wingers, one for the right and one for the left, but I rather concentrate myself with a playermaker and dribbler specialist in the MC line and I've got another SS in the AMC line. Zonal defending makes up for the lack of wingers.

    You say 4-3-3, but you describe a 3-3-2-2. Anyway, it's not illegal as you have DL and DR, and maybe AML and AMR, I'm not clear on what formation you're playing.
    God Bless!
