It's mean that they will be more active in defence but at the same time, they won't be so active in attack :)

Hi pricop.! How to you will orders if your formation is 4-5-1 v style & 4-4-2 classic ? (about arrows & tactics)
can you guide to me?
Thanks you
(sorry about my english skill,i hope you understand)
Do you usually put blue arrows on your defenders or goalkeeper, and red on your striker, to good effect? There are some that say if you put a red arrow on a DL, he will play as a DML when you attack, so lately I haven't been putting blue arrows on my defenders and goalkeeper, and no red arrows on my strikers, and I'm getting pretty good results.
You didn't really answer my question, though. I just want to know whether it's okay to put red arrows on your strikers, and blue on your defenders and goalkeepers. My understanding of arrows used to be that players moved in the direction of the arrows when attacking or defending, so there's really nowhere for the goalkeeper and defenders to go on defence, nor the striker on attack.
Hello all
On 30th of november you wrote something about the formation, and upload this picture
Attachment 525
And then, if I read it ok, u said u changed the formation, thats true?
why? only for fun? xD
the formation in the picture is not good anymore?
(sry for my English)
I've been experimenting a little with arrows.
First defenders.
Previously only ever put down arrows on the centre DC of three, to act as a sweeper against two strikers, or up arrows on DL/DR when playing the V formation.
For the last few days I've put them on all three, with different mentality settings and counter options.
When used with defensive mentality no counter they definitely do not venture to far up field, which is what you want.
In attacking mentality with off side on they moved forward but seem to drop to deep when out of possession, my MF and DM's seem to be doing far more tackling which IMO accounted for 4 bookings in two games.
In normal with no off side and no counter they were all over the place scoring from open play.
So while I'm still not 100% that arrows do a great deal I will persist wit the trials, the same goes for AM's and ST I'm not convinced they do a great deal.
My reasoning is that you cannot rely on the game engine to be giving a true picture of where players are and what they are actually doing.
There's is only one constant on Tll, inconsistency! there lies the problem, utter confusion. :confused:
Hey, i'm new at this game, but played a Kind of simular game before(hattrick) are The game working allmost In The same way?
And does i loose to mutch midtfield if i play 2 dmc instead of cm players?

Hello,
It's my formation :
DL - DC - DC - DR
MC - MC - MC
AMC
ST-ST
it's illégal formation ?
If i put ML-MC-MR ? it's better ?
(sorry for my english)
It's not illegal, no problems at all with that formation as it has DL/DR which are flank players.
i see.. thank you..
i have another question, i've never used arrow before i read your tips on this forum and my 2 6* ST and 2 5*ST was never scored in last 3 games(before use arrow)..but now i think they are doing great with the formation which i set myself with the arrow thing and im quite satisfy of that..
the problem is, i put 1 5*ST and 1 6*ST when i started to use the arrow thing and i havnt tried to put both 6*ST with arrow.
so, my 1st question is should i keep that formation till the end of season?
2. should i replace the 5*ST with the 6*ST(subs)?
3. they're all talking about upgrading DF,MF,ST skills..but no one talk about GK skills..so any tips for GK skills?
I have few 6 stars on subs too, if you see your team is playing very good like that, keep this formation, no reason to change it.
Look on stats to see who have a better report on games/goals
About gk, I never used arrows on them and skill points all on defence (IMO).
Thank you Pricop.. appriciate it..
its really helpful..
im only lvl 1 btw..
cheerz
ok.. my opponent will use kinda wierd formation
DR-DC-DC-DL
DMR
MC-MC-MC
AMR-AML
i'll use
DR-DC-DC-DL
ML-MC-MC
AMR
ST-ST
and i hav a better quality players then him at all position..so what do you think? should i play 3-3-1-3?
Attachment 622
could u tell how to beat this illegal formation?
......................DC..............
...........DMC...DMC...DMC....
............MC......MC..............
.....AMR.................AMC......
.............ST............ST........
Ok guys, in my league there is a very normal team with no 5 stars players that uses a very weird tactic which I have never seen before..and he manages to win pretty often also against much stronger team..I faced him a couple of days ago and even if i played home and i am much stronger after 30 minutes the result was already 0-3 for him..this goes way beyond pure random...his tactic is the following:
......................GK..............
.....DR............DC........DL....
....DMR..........DMC......DML..............
..............MC...MC....MC..........
......................ST...................
Today he played against the strongest team in the league, after 25 minutes he got is DMC injured and didn´t replace him, so he played 65 minutes 10 vs. 11 with basically no defence...and he won...
Could it be that somehow this weird formation is the key to the top eleven match engine?it can not be pure luck all the time..
I have played with GK injuried and i won with 4-0 ;) Look!
Attachment 721
Yes, it is. He have a DC as GK and a GK as ST :cool:
PS: Nice signature Catalin :)
Hello, just started playing 2 days ago. I've been reading your advice and buying decent players. Could you look at this team and see if my tactics are ok? Is it just a case of putting your players into their favourite positions?
Attachment 912
Questions:
Do I need to have a DM?
What players should I sell/buy?
Does it make a difference having a player in the middle square instead of one of the squares either side of the middle one? E.g. xx-xx or x-xxx ?
Thanks! Your advice has been great.
You don't need to have them strategic like xx-xx, they can be x-xxx as well, also you made a nice formation with your players, is really ok, you should sell your res.
its way too aggressive imho, unless you have a squad rivalling brazil, i wouldnt play that formation. you want to be playing 4 layers, such as 4-2-3-1, or 4-4-1-1, or if you have really good CBs 3-5-2, or even 3-3-2-2
Thanks for the advice. I did think it was too attacking. To switch to 4-2-3-1 I just need to move one striker down into central AMF position right? (See my last pic).
Can I play an MF or ST there? or does it have to be an AMF?
Do you ever use DMFs? Or put players in that line?
Cheers
I read your tutorial and I must say, it's very well written and so helpful. Thanks a lot George!
Any help to win against this formation:
------------GK-----------
--------DC-DC-DC-------
DML---------------DMR-
------------MC----------
AML---------------AMR-
--------ST----ST-------
He is strongest than me
Thanks. .
