Default YNWA Goals Goals Goals Tactics

These are tactics that i have established myself lately

They are very good, especially if you are struggling for goals

They mainly combine 2 good wingers, with a fast striker and a target man

It also has 2 decent FB, who like to attack

Hopefully another few people will try them, and tell me what you think fo them, and where i could improve them

They are also very good, if your wingers are struggling for you, he is scoring and setting up alot of goals for me

When i first developed them they were too attackive, and led to about 3 goals a game, but conceded on average 1 goal a game, so ive altered them a small bit to be a bit more defensive


Team Instructions


Quick Tempo with Direct passing

Passing the ball down both flanks, so to get alot of crosses in

Its mainly used with a target man, with all the balls being played to him. Both to his head and feet

It also uses playmaker, so you'll have to decide on your own i usually use one of my cm, with my two wide men



Individual Instructions

The two wide men are imperative to the success of this tactic

Firstly they need to be able to use both feet, as they will be switching position

They have to be decent at shooting and finishing

So you might need to buy players to suit this

It relies alot on creativity from the midfielders, especially the wide men, as they will be crossing alot

It also relies ont he full backs getting forward

Versions

This is a more defensive version, as i altered them because when i had people testing them, they were conceding 2 goals for every 3 games

So i decided to make them a bit more defensive, so try and avoid this



Player Types



Defence:

Strong cb's who are good at holding the line : eg john Terry

good full backs who like to get forward, and are good passers and crossers: eg Daniel Alves



Midfield:

One DM playing cm, someone who is a good passer and also good at tracking back and getting alot of tackles: eg Javier Mascherano

The other CM has to be creative, and a good playmaker as he will be getting forward alot. Also has to be good at shooting from long range, and must be good at intrigate passes : EG Kaka

The two wide men need:

Pace
Acceleration
Good Crossing
Good Dribbling
Good first touch
Be able to use both feet fairly well, as they will be switching positions : Joaquin



Striker:

One has to be a targetman

Someone who is good with his head, and is also strong: EG Dirk Kuyt

The other striker has to be fast

He has to be able to run with the ball, and be a good finisher: EG David Villa

So inconclusion for the player types:

Good attackive FB

Strong CB

A creative/Defensive midfield combo

Fast creative wingers

A target man

A fast striker


Results

This has been tried at many different levels

The following leagues:

Serie A
Serie B
Premiershi
Championship
League 1
League 2
Conference
LA liga
Spaning second divsion
Ligue 1
Bundesliga

So as you can see they have been tried out in a wide variety of leagues

Each team tried them out for atleast a season, some lasted 5, some only 1

It is suitable to all leagues, and so doesnt need any altering

But some advice on how they can be improve is acceptable if you feel it could improve the tactic

I found this a a very good tactic. I came third in the CL Group Stages with another tactic and I switched to this and I won the EPL, UEFA Cup and the League Cup with LFC. Good work mate, very good tactic!

This is now by FARRRRRR my bestest tactic so thank you, i have edited it a little so that the team isnt playing as wide and also so that they dont waste time. i also edited it so that my wingers only had long shots as mixed because none of them are good at long shooting hehe.

I have used this tactic with Tottenham and Liverpool, in both games i am 1st.

In the Tottenham game i am unbeaten atm, Beating Man Utd at Old Trafford, Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle at home and Chelsea managed to scrape a draw.

Im the only team who is still unbeaten in the league after around 12 games, i have drew around 4 and won the rest :)

Since using this tactic I have seen my team score more than a couple of times in each game.
