This channel is so underrated man... keep up the grind my guy

FOUR FOUR FUCKING TWO LADS!!! Honestly, I love the simplicity of the four four two, I wish it would come back more.

I used the low block 433 against a 3 CB team in Serie B and it worked like gangbusters, I won 4-1. These type of videos are great and I feel like I learn so much more. I love the simple instructions of "if they have great WB's do this, or if not do that" type of thing. It's a simple way to learn tactics and gives us something specific to watch for. Thanks and I look forward to more!

Man, this is like a ten-minutes coach's license course. And it's for real

Great work man. this video makes me notice carefully opponent's tactic and try some new things to counter them instead of always using favorite tactics. still waiting the results some matches so far, but i see my players play quite positive with new changes. Xin chao from Vietnam 💯

Always struggled against 4-4-2, this explanation is perfect!

Fantastic video. This is the type of content that the community needs as opposed to all of the clickbait meta tactic stuff.

Wow this channel is unreal. Liked and subbed. Hope the content keeps coming

What a class you just gave.. great video, Congrats my guy!! Love from Portugal 🇵🇹❤️

Great work. I even write it down so I can remember later. Masterclass! Thank you!

yesterday night i played liverpool 5 times loosing all the games i applied the first tactic i saw from you on how to beat the 4-3-3 and i won finally, thanks man!

Wow!, just wow! Your analysis is so apt and easy to understand. Do you have something like this for FM23/24 mobile versions? Or any other channel that analyses like you?

I love using the 433 but now I know how to defeat one thanks a million man!

Only just heard of you and so glad I have,great vid mate

Great content ❤

Good video man! I'm a defence focused kinda guy and this year I have had good success using a 4-4-2 with 4 different teams

Im wating for this and u pop up,keep up man!

The charm of tactics in FM is to find a way to combat all these popular formations with your own system and It's certainly possible

Great video. i'm now subscribed 💖

Zo leerzaam. Dankjewel!

Excellent work and video ❤

Great video. Thanks!

Great video mate., cheers!

Top video Roan, would love to see the ‘Mourinho Tactics’ video ideas mentioned elsewhere in the comments section! Appreciate the content mate 👍🏽

I love ur content mate, keep it up. Stay healthy, God bless

Best video you've ever done. I'm now subscribed..

Nice video mate! i learnt a lot. just a suggestion: timestamps for those that want to come back to certain formations and check things. will watch more of your videos so thanks for this.

Very nice video

I used your 433 with volante's against a 4231 worked like a charmed. The only change a made was tackle harder on a individual levels to all players except the cd's.

Finally, someone did this shit. I’m struggling to find this since fm 2015. Great job, mate!

hey coach, thank you for this video. its very usefull. can you also make a video about how to beat 442 diamond tactic?

Coach Roan u legend 🙌

I like to use a back 3 on my teams, and it doesn't matter what I do, I always get scored when the other team throws long balls. The 3 central defenders make so many mistakes it's unbelievable. In my current save I have a back 3 with Thiaw, Scalvini and Ajer (3 years into the save, so they are pretty good) and even with those names, they don't know how to follow ONE striker. Idk if it is a problem with the IA or what, but it's frustrating. I changed formation and used some of your tips and they actually work, it's pretty cool to win against a 4-3-3 just by making them tired themselves lol

Hi, great video! Really helpful! What tactic would you recommend to beat the first alternative against the 4-3-3 suggested? (The 4-3-3 with 3CDM’s 2 being Segundo Volante’s)

nice video

Thanks a lot, Roan. I've been looking for a proper defensive/counter attack system and yours seems to be really interesting. I'll try it out. Is there a link to download them?

I love roan he seems to love fm so much

Great video! Which tactic is stronger for possesion? 433?

Awesome video! I wish you would have shown actual in game examples of this working because without that, this is only a theory.

Top gedaan!

Thanks man, Very helpful. Did you manage to beat jurgen klopp's Liverpool? I don't understand how they're very hard to beat. 😂

Hi coach, can you teach me more about opposition instructions with all formation like this ??!! please!

Which would be best to counter Man City 433?

Will you make how to beat 4411,4141 or how to beat tactics like tiki taka route one or counter attacks?

i stick with 3-2-5 transition from 4 back based formation still the best to cope any formation of any AI type of managers ❤

I play a 5-3-2 with 6 units on attack and it works at all levels, from amateur to pro, and its an amazing underdog tactic. Everyone defends , everyone attacks, with a DLF and an AF, you can often see the DLF go help defend in the wings if needed, and a CB go wide to support the wingbacks and even cross if technically gifted. Generally, wingers cant defend or lack the mental attributes to make significant defensive contributions, hence, Mezzalas > Wingers. Most of the weaknesses pointed out on a 3 CB system pointed out on this video are negated by simply having a DLP on DM position or just a regular DM. its almost like having 4 CB or 3 CB and a BPD in front of them. The only real weakness is luck from set pieces and switch up plays really, I even invite the opposition to cross, so my CB's can head the ball to the DLP and initiate an immediate deadly counter , if the opponents are better or really fast up front, just drop the line and watch Counter-attack magic. From experience, which is subjective I must add, the central space right in front of defence is the most crucial area to control on FM23, the team that does it better, has the highest chance of winning the match, 2 strikers also works better than lonely striker. if you're interested in checking it out Coach Roan, i'd love to see what you think of it, I could send you the tactic file somewhere if you find the time. Good job on both the video and dissecting all the strengths and weaknesses of the popular formations. Last thing to add is, even if the tactics do work, teams that switch tactics often will struggle with tactical familiarity, so even if it makes sense on paper, the execution may fail because of this.

I want to develop an old catenaccio system or a Jose Mourinho's Chelsea 15 goals conceded Premier League team. It would work perfect for my Fiorentina save, any recommendations?

I'm a beginner, because each team has different tactics, should I change my tactics for every game, or stick with one set of tactics? Should I consider the team's familiarity with the tactics and the players' role familiarity?

Great tutorial but can someone please tell me what tactics to use when your up against what the author as described in his description ie 4-4-2 4-3-2-1 3 at the back etc

Hey Coach! Could you please help me with tactics? I play 4-1-2-2-1 DM Wide. I have a Cautious mentality. I have Regroup when lost ball. I have Low Block, Much Lower defence line, Much Less often trigger press, and Drop off in out of possession. I play with CD-De and W-De from each side, defs have no any traits at all. No tighter marking, as rare pressing as possible. But my defs always try to press and that's where I concede most of the goals. What can I do to stop them to run forward?

Be better if you added time stamps. Just feedback other then that, good work 👏

Manage to beat Lazio (4-0) Juve (4-0) Milan (2-1) straight 3 Game week with your tactic. Meet Juventus 4 time in 1 season , beat them 3 time the with 3+ goal. Btw I'm still playing with FM21 Napoli save. Currently running in 2nd season with leading Seria A & meet Liverpool in final UCL in 2weeks.

Coach Roan is what manu needs

14:24 i died with this xDDD

at the end of the day its depen on our players

Really liked the concept of the video, but not the execution. All your tactics miss something that it's pretty fundamental to FM tactic building, some miss forward movement partnerships with your striker, some miss defensive pressure on the flanks, some lack solidity, some are flat out too risky etc.

you...yyyou .... whhhh.... why are there band-aids on the dogs butt?

First

Thanks for this, i hate playing teams with 3 at the back, now am more confident lol
