Tactics 2-2-2-3-1 Vertical Tiki-Taka

[skasnine]

It's my first time posting on this site but I've been here for quite a while now. I was testing for a possible 1KC tactic using mostly youngsters/wonderkids but accidentally created this amazing tactic while tweaking. The main goal scorer is still the CF but goals may come from everybody, specially the MFs. Main assist providers are the flanks but anybody chips-in every now and then. I tweak it sometimes depending on the opposition but here is my default settings for it. Sometimes I go overload but I find attacking much better as it gives the forwards enough space to employ their creativity. I usually rotate my squad depending on the opposition, I got a B team ready for it.

Here are some of the tweaks I usually do. When I'm facing a big team I usually go for balanced and slow tempo, and when I'm leading and don't want to concede I go with counter and fast tempo. I also tweak some of the roles depending on the players I use. Sometimes I change the treq to TF/DLF. Both of my CBs are usually BPDs but I sometimes change the best CB to Libero to create a link from the defence to the mids.

P.S I used the editor only for bringing players to my team as Dundee is a reltively small team, I didn't want to use Celtic or Rangers as I want to leave some strong opposition to test my tactic with throughout the season. The purpose of this save was to experiment tactics only so i used the editor to make the process fast. I didn't use it for any other things like injuring opposition or boosting the morale and fatigue of my players.

 

These two really suprised me as they have dang average attributes but have been killing it statistically.

Currently nearing the end of my second season and here is what the fixture looks like. 

Haven't tried this with another team or another league. The pics are from my 2nd season testing this tactic so the relationships are already good. I suggest that you let the players really build up good relationships as it elevates the tactic even further. Hope you give it a try and give a feedback about it. Thanks.

Pretty good strategy! But I see some problems with this tactic and I hope you come up with a solution soon.

1) The first problem is that positions often move over each other, for example: 2 RPs often move over each other when the team has the ball. I tried to fix this by changing one RP to B2B (RP & RP => B2B & RP ) This adjustment has fixed the issue of 2 RP not overlapping each other anymore but I wonder if it has any effect on strategy. In addition, T & SS also encounter this situation but less often and I have considered arranging these two positions diagonally across each other.

2) The strategy is very good until facing formations with 5 centre-backs. When meeting teams with formations with centre-backs, scoring goals becomes extremely difficult, is there any solution for this situation?

Thanks for the strategy

It’s  no useful, a 9-game winless streak in Germany’s third division.

Well, of course. Just by looking at the tactic you can clearly see that it's not a lower league tactic.
