Season 74 - Are you ready?

[Arion]

I'll keep that in mind thank you. I used to play with depth but I think I'll cut down on quality.

This is where multi-position players come handy — I tend to have a "base formation" (currently 4-5-1V) and build my squad around it. You only need 17-18 players — a goalkeeper, 6 defenders, 1 DMC, 3 MCs, 4 wingers and 2/3 strikers (for 4-5-1v). The wingers can be AML/ML, AMR/MR, AML/AMC, AMR/AMC. The defenders can be 2 DL/DC, 2 DC/DR, 2 DC/DMC. You can keep 3-4 reserves to reduce quality. These can be academy players. You can train them a SA or roles, this helps when you sell them later or even in negos. Best of luck for next season

And as you play hexagon more, keep a keeper, 6 defenders, 3/4 MCs, 4 wingers, 3 STs - 18 men should be enough. If you want a full 22 man rotation then go for it — each style has its own pros and cons. I don't want anyone to strictly do what someone says as each manager's play style is different — if you're Mou then you can form a squad with 11 men but if you're Wenger then even 33 guys won't be enough, half of them with season tickets to the medical center
