I just got promoted with Barnet in League Two after dominating Vanarama with a 41212 Fluid Counter, where most of the teams used a 352/343. But now I'm really struggling with most of the teams using 42M31. Seems they managing to nullified every scoring opportunity we try to create. In defense we're still really solid (5 games without conceding as of now) but when in possession.. oh boy. We can't do anything.
I'll try to follow your advice, tweaking my 41212 on what you showed with yours.

I like how you look at the game from a logic perspective, each strength can be nullified, it really helped me out with my tactics and games!

[NukeTheNight]

another neat, simple but insightful and nice video. Keep up the good work man, I love your content!

[Egerotti]

Thank you, I lost with all 3 of those 😂

[kajianislamina]

Yes, I think 4231 is the best tactics for Fm23.
But I really love 41212, which is hard to work in FM now

[arikahmed]

can you do a video on how to beat stronger teams on fm23 as a underdog or how to beat a 433

i'm using a 424 i made, one of my forwards has scored 41 league goals (cinch premiership) and a winger has scored 16 assists



starting from the goalkeeper up to the forwards: sk-de, wb-su, cd-de, dlp-su and rpm-su (both in midfield), w-su, af-at, cf-at

shorter passing, pass into space, play out of defence, hit early crosses, low crosses, focus play down the left/right, overlap left/right, higher tempo
roll it out, distribute to centre-backs, distribute to full-backs, distribute quickly, counter
high press much more often, positive

Love your straight forward approach coach! Helps an old cm01/02 player coming back. I play a Hibs save and get demolished by Celtics and Rangers every time. The others I can deal with but. Care to help us out? ❤

I really like your videos. I would love to see a video on how to create more, and better chances when playing a 4231 (2 CM's not DM's) against teams that sit really deep and space is extremely limited. Any thoughts?

[virgoaraaf]

We need this kind of video, coach, like how to counter tactical style/formations. Nice video and it works with my game.

Exit another options for covera weakness FB go support attack, cover gap holdung midef.and it is no problem

[jovicaduro]

Last formation break very easy, 4-2-3-1 is good on the wings

[demashit]

Can you make video on how to break team with 5 defender. Currently im doing save in serie A and most of team use 5 defender. Although i still won some games but the goal deficit is small and I always conceded few goals

[PhuocNguyen-sfpn]

[amazinglif.e]

[respawningchaos]

Just do a 5 b ack with 2 dm on defend and 3 up top
