What formation/tactic are you using?

[JMcD]

As above.

And is it standard or what have you tweaked and are you winning with it?

4-4-2... with one striker playing slightly off the other. A DMC and AMC -

4-4-2 dimond

with wingbacks pushing up - simple pasing style with bit off mixed , and high tempo

[JMcD]

Have you just tinkered with the standards or went right into the detail of changing lots?

Took the basic 4-4-2 and tinkered with it.

Yes, this is also what I am using, this has worked a treat. Using West Ham and Parker is out for 3 months. I think I need to buy a top quality DMC though..

Hi

Currently use 442att and 442 defense both tweaked using wibwob, positioning depending on opposition and individual instructions. Also during the game I play around with tempo/and instruction depending what my assman tells me.

k..:)

[munge]

4 at the back , central midfielder with an attacking midfielder/forward (depending on who's fit), 2 wingers and 2 strikers.

Sometimes man to man mark, close down etc depending on the oppos' assists, goal scoring etc and change tempo during the match depending on how things are going.

Have also tweaked individual players orders depending on their strengths.

I am using 4-4-2 Man Utd style. 2 strong DC, fast creative full backs supporting wingers. MC with defensive mentality, supporting defence, holding up the ball and rarely comes in attack, another MC with attacking functions, a lot of forward runs. Two wingers. Creative FC who is my playmaker, holding up the ball, creative passing and SC with good heading who scored 12 goals from crosses this season. All defenders, defensive MC and FC are set to man marking and pressing own half other are zonal and pressing always. The tempo is normal and when I lead two goals it is low.

I use 4-1-3-2

To me, It's not tactic that matter, CM 2010 give a totally new experience to us, to give detail instruction to players how to play, and mould them to play as you want them to be.

tactic choice, you can fully utilise your squad and make a tactic that benifit your current resources without buying.

The important matter is, how your defender need to do with those attacker, marking? tight or loose or rough?
Go in hard or stand off?
take on defender or pass it around?
tendency to pass back or forward?
carry the ball outta defend or clear it?

There are many things that can affect the final outcome, including the art of changing tempo of the game.

I never enjoy a CM/FM game to this extend.
