    In 5 matches played I have 1W 3D e just 1L
    Ok my team is not so weak but I got 5 points playing with strange and illegal formations, with no morale and no condition.

    Do you think I can still tank this season in the last 10 matches?

    Last match:

    Trying to tank a season-tank2.jpg

    I was attacking on both flanks...without players on flanks!
    My quality: 69.1, his one 67.9 and he scored just at 89' when all my team's condition was under 50%

    I really do not understand if tactics are useful or not
    Maybe we're filling tons of pages talking about nothingh...

    Put out a formation like this:

    ----------ST----------
    -AML---------------AMR-
    -MC----------------MC-
    -DDML-------------DMR-
    -DL-------DC-------DR-


    Play normal, down the flanks, easy tackle, mixed passing, long passes, man-to-man, no counter, no offsides.

    blue arrows on ST, red arrows on DL/DC/DR

    you can put everyone out of position, so your DC is playing ST etc, but make sure your GK is playing out, or dont play one at all.

    Change your freekick and corner takers to your worst players as well, most people forget this I think.

    If you can, watch other matches in your league and support the ones you want to win to take over that 7th spot from you. It may also create animosity and make others watch your games and support your opponent, which is good for you! lol

    good luck! I am tanking 2 of my 5 accounts this season, simply because the other 3 are in 1st place, which is a surprise since I planned on tanking at the first game and saw that I had the best team in 3 leagues, so decided to go for it. Strange to see no Tommy tokens in 3 of the leagues out of 5.

    It happened with me as well. I was 11th in league, out of cup and CL. I decided to tank and I started winning and entered top 7. I got angry and trained all my players at hard again and again at 0% cnd. They got injured. Out of 20, 10 got injured and lost 3 straight matches 3-0 as no complete squad was present. 10th again!!!! YO!!!!!
