what i saw in this formation when i played is : when i go to and play on the wide area the midfielders makes move to the goal espically ( CMF ) Who move THE ENTIRE TEAM !!
so must you have A Great CMF who has ( Speed , Body Balance , Great Passes , and shots ) :erm:

beside when wingers (LMF&RMF ) move to middle to help strikers , (RB &LB ) makes their move to sideline to deliver a great crosses to all the players on the the 18YardBox ( LMF & RMF & CMF & CF & CF ) and behind them is DMF to shots while he can !! or take position to defend !!

anyone have a GREAT FORMATION and TEAM Style to share it with us !

( sorry for the spilling , NOT pro in ENGLISH )

Thanks Bebo.

Well, the formation in my ML team depends on the players. For example, I like to play using 4-4-2, but at the end of last season I had so many good attackers in their peak that I had no alternative then trying a 4-3-3 (bear in mind that I don't like to play with this formation).

But when we talk about team style, then I agree with you, it depends a lot about yourself and the way you play. In the beginning I did not give too much importance to the style slides, but then I read one thread about a guy who plays in "Arsenal style". The post was fantastic for me to show the importance of the sliders.

OK, no more talk. My actual formation is 4-4-2.
----------GK----------

-------CB---CB-------

---------CF------------

It gives me two attackers for a kick counter-attack (if needed) and a good midfield for ball possession. The defensive system is quite solid too.

The team style:

Player support: 100
Support range: 100
Position switch: 75
Offense style: 70
Pressing: 70
Defensive line: 70
Compactness: 90
Defensive strategy: 1

Considerations:
1) I use defensive strategy 1 because it has been my style since PES 6. I tried to switch to 0 but I sucked. :no:
2) for some reason, when I set player support to 100, my defenders start to give important gaps for the opponents. I don't know why. I thought that it would have influence only during attack. Anyway, you need to change that when defending
3) I have two more formations with different team styles to use during the game. One for defending and another to vary the attack and to confound the opposition specially when they are man-marking.

Well, that's it.

Nice post zizou .
but i hope you describe for us how the team moves in the match !!!
dose AMF support defense or strikers only or both !!

by the way i advise you to try my formation and gave me your opinion and sometime try with 2 SS insted SMF !!

anyway honestly i like your formation
i should try it this season on FA Cup :lol:

 

[zizou4ever]

OK, Bebo! I will explain how my team moves during the match.

First of all, when I wrote that I tried to play with 4-3-3, it was exactly with 2 SS (instead of 1 SS and 1 SMF). But I think this 4-4-2 has its advantages.

The characteristic of the players:

This formation doesn't require a lot of special players. I would say that the key players are the DMF, AMF and SS.

- Defence system works with the CBs and the SBs who will provide primary defensive tasks. You will see them (SBs) in attack sometimes as a surprise though (you control that with L2+R1 or L2+R2). DMF is a key player because he protects the defence and he will cover when one of the SBs goes to attack. The CMF and the SMF come back to defend too. So, it's quite solid even against those crazy 4-2-4!

- Attack: well, you have several small "triangles" on the wings and in the middle. On right, you will have (R)SB-SFM-CMF and CMF-SFM-CF. You can use a lot of 1-2 here. Player support set in 100 gives you a lot of runnings and possibilities. On left, we have (L)SB-DMF-AMF and SB-SS-AMF. The same thing. Through the middle we have the DMF-CMF and AMF, sometimes even the SMF. So, if the wings are somehow blocked, you can go through the middle. The AMF is a key player exactly because of that. He and the CMF will connect both wings and make decisive passes to SS, CF or SMF. AMF and CMF need to have good pass stats. Cards like "Passer", "Outside Curve" and "Roulette" are essential to survive in the midfield.

- the SS needs to have good pace and skills. He will delivery lots of crosses to the box where will be CF, AMF, SMF and CMF. On the other wind, the SMF will do the same (although he doesn't need to be fast; he has just to be good at passing and shooting).

- CF needs to be good at heading and shielding the ball. He doesn't need to be fast.

Anyway, this formation (or should I say "system") reminds a 4-5-1 but with one winger who stays deep. Of course, it's not perfect and it has its flaws. But I enjoy playing with it and it's not boring.

 

[Bebo79]

wow !!
i have learned a lot of tectics because your formation system .
anyway , i never ever try this formation
----------GK----------
-----------------------
-------CB---CB-------
--SB-------------SB--
------------DM--------
-----CMF--------------
------------AMF-------
-SMF------------------
------------------SS--
---------CF------------

but i will try it like what u did extacly for 1 match ..
and i will adjust it for my setting
because i have a players like " Favalli " who have " deep cover " which means he focuses solely on defense ( so he will be Third CB in my formation ) and he plays on his left foot ..

so i,ll play like this :happy:

----------------------------GK:Crestiano----------
-------------------CB:shawcross----CB:EL Kaoutari---------
-----SB:Steadier\tomecak-----------------------------SB:Favalli--
------------------------------DM:candreva--------
---------------CMF:rowdy-------
------------------------AMF:antolic-------
--------------------------------------------SMF:ait fana \ grozav--
-SS:filip \ arnautovic------------------
--------------------------CF:vokes---

and with your TEAM STYLE !!

i hope other members share with us THEIR

Hey Guys... these formations rock... but I perfected a formation with Man City.. after 8 seasons of painstaking effort...

It Is Really good if You Max up Player Support and add upto 30 Defensive Strategy, Since The SS provide the Width on either side of the pitch, plus support the striker. The AMF is usually a long ranger, creative midfielder, whose may choose to stay outside the box, and provides supporting runs to the SS. The CMFs may make foraging runs near the striker, or make neat through passes. The CF need not be fast, only a good finisher. The DMF defends if you get hit on the counter, and also switches with one CB, allowing enterprising CB like Lescott, Pique, Vidic to come forward. Last season in Top Player, I won the treble, and scored 65 goals, and let in only 4 goals!!! :lol:

 

[blomqvist23]

i have 2 question about tactic:
1. i want the RMF and LMF to run forward when i get close to them with the RB or LB.
and stay on line and not get into the middle.
2.when i change in the player index the attack level card it won't change
every game.
thanks

This is what I play with.

I'm Liverpool in my 2nd master league season.

------------------------Reina(GK)-------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
---------------Agger (CB)-----Caceres (CB)---------------
Johnson (RB)---------------------------------Insua(LB)
---------------------Mascherano (DM)--------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
Gerrard (RM)----------Aquilani (CM)--------Emanuelson (LM)
----------------------------------------------------------
-------------Benzema (SS)--------------------------------
----------------------------Torres (CF)-------------------

Johnson and Insua push up regularly, while Gerrard and Emanuelson sit around the half-way line. Mascherano sits just infront of the defence, breaking up the oppositions attacks. Benzema plays behind Torres, holding the ball up for Aquilani to run onto around the edge of the area. This is well balanced because when i'm on the ball I have upto 7 players attacking, but when defending Johnson and Insua get back, Gerrard and Emanuelson tuck in forcing the opposition wide and Agger and Caceres can deal with almost everything in the air.

I play quite high up the pitch which isn't a problem because Johnson, Agger and Caceres are all pretty quick and this allows Mascherano and Aquilani to pressure the opposition into knocking it long.

[manbearpig]

It changes from game to game depending on players forms (I make my player selections based on that). But I usually do 4 defenders, 1 defensive midfielder, 2 midfielders, 2 wingers and a center forward
