Tactics 442 diamond tactic


 Share

Recommended Posts

I initially started this save with Atalanta, where I was very successful winning two league titles consecutively a UCL an italian supercup and a European supercup, however I used a variety of tactics one of them being a 442 diamond, different to this one though. I got an offer to manage Chelsea and I thought to make a tactic and post here if successful. I started with another asymmetrical tactic that worked very well against smaller teams but struggled against big teams. I used the asymmetrical tactic up to the game against Real Madrid. The plan for the 442 diamond was to create a 2332 offensively overloading zone 14 with the bbms and ap. What surprised me was its defensive solidity as we rarely concede chances. You can adjust instructions to fit your team except highline offside trap and mentality. Also the two forward roles are up to you but I wouldn't use dlf. AM role also but don't use SS I didn't touch set pieces so results would be more pure.

Looks solid,

how did your final league table look?

10 games without conceding, impressive stuff

Haven't finished the season yet but will update when I do, but I did start a save with Alkmaar to test the tactic, plugged it in no transfers, just took holidays until the season was over and it finished third, also notably beating Ajax 4-0 which I think considering I did literally nothing and still kind of overperformed is pretty good. Also in the Chelsea save it's 11 clean sheet wins in a row and counting, there's a UCL game not visible in the screenshot.

Thank you for sharing. Are you sure the AI uses your tactic when on holiday?

As far as I know yes as I've done it before and different tactics have different results.

I believe that the AI does NOT use your tactics if you holiday.

It is normal to get different results with the same setup. Form, morale, injuries, luck, etc.

I’ve drafted a squad before, put Guardiola as manager, saved it - then holidayed it 5 different times - getting different results each time. Of course there are patterns, but the details are different

Obviously you can't see the players positions in the match report, but the team selection should give you a good idea. I just tested this by having 2 completely ridiculous tactics and going on holiday - first one was 5 attackers and 5 defenders (so no midfields/wingers should have been selected). In the match report, i could see that 3 CD's, 2 FBS and 5 attackers had been picked. A bit inconclusive since several of my attacking midfielders/wingers can also play up front, but given no central midfielders were picked it should be a good starting indication. The best bit was that I actually won that game 4-0, so i might have to do some testing with that tactic 😅

Second attempt made it a bit more obvious - 5 defenders and 5 defensive midfielders. Holidayed again, and the match report shows 5 defenders and 5 midfielders picked (no attacking players at all).  Somehow managed to win that game 1-0 🤣

So to some up, it looks like the AI does use your tactic, but it doesn't usually use your team selection

That’s a good test - I like it 👍 

Please note that it shows the AI uses your formation - but we have no idea about the player roles nor instructions - right? 🙂

Best way is to try it and see.

Tactic wasn’t doing well so I holidayed till January and I was 9th with arsenal 

Can you send screenshots of your team, results etc? I'd like to see if there is a pattern in which the tactic doesn't work as well, since it worked well for me and others.

First 10 games, looking like a very solid tactic so far 👍👏

Glad it worked for you. Is Chelmsford projected to do that well or are you over performing?

Think Chelmsford are a mid table team so definitely over performing 👍🏻
