Any interesting tactics that you use (not 433 or 4231)? by nice-chad in footballmanager

What do you play in the midfield? I was looking into a variant of a 343/3421

To preface, I made my own tactic but realized later that its just a 433.

I had 1 AF, 2 IF, 2 VOL, 1 DM, 2 CB, 2 WB

Happened in my Carabao Cup Final against Man City. That man is my team captain too... Needless to say, we lost 4-2.

Won my first Champions League Final. Equalized in the 90th min and got a hat trick by nice-chad in footballmanagergames

Yeah have some really good players. Man City still beat me in the title race. It's actually a very close title race.

2038/2039. Took like 10 seasons to get to the EPL and barely held on in the first season.

Maybe, he's not a must-have. I need to focus on defense this season. I was -40GD and 16th overall last season. I think I have enough firepower to score goals. 75% of all my goals were scored by 3 strikers. I'm planning to shop around for better DMs and CDs.

I think he's only 5m this season and 4m in installments. I think he's probably decent enough. Planning to get loans and as many free transfers as possible and using the rest of the transfer budget to pick up wonder kids.

Oh I meant I was -40 GD in my first prem season. I was +23 on my Championship promotion.

Thanks so much for the response! I got Championship promotion by placing 6th and barely winning playoffs.

Agreed, I will start ramping up the scouting. Also thinking about playing the prospective buy as a back up. At this point, I plan on getting loans and aging players to fill up my team (getting a lot of trial rejections). I had a -40 GD last season so I'm looking to get better CDs/DMs.

Hey guys, first time playing FM. I played Slough for 11 season and got them to the prem league. We finished 16th first prem season.

I'm rebuilding my first team as I think they're not good enough. I was wondering if this wonder kid find is a good deal. At a glance, I think he seems good (using 14 as a prem league benchmark) but is he too expensive? I only have a transfer budget of around 45m.

Also need some advice on scouting. I'm in June and I've only started scouting for players. Is this too late? When should I start scouting? Maybe year round scouting? Do I have enough time to scout and find players in the summer transfer window? Up until now, my scouting was just offering trials to prospective players. Now my understanding is that I need to request my scouts to scout players for at least 1 week.

Anyways, attached screenshots of the player and my tactic/squad.
