FM 21 Creating Tactics - Team Instructions Explained

Let us know if you found this video useful! Or if you have any questions, feel free to ask! - RDF

How to save a tactic? it always changes back to its old configurations as soon as I leave the tactic panel.

The preset tactics always do the best for me

You did what FM needs, keeping it all simple

Focus play on the flanks doesn't increase mentality like in previous Fms in this version of the game it will create overloads players will get closer on the selected flank to support each other.

How do i create a good clean slate tactic?

anyone having player instructions bug?

Great video as always RDF!

Would love to see your personal take on a 3 at the back formation (only cb's, no wingbacks at all). Would be great to see which style of play you would go for, the passing style, pressing method, mentality set up and the player roles + positions!

Good video RDF. Thanks for explaining all the teams instructions in one video.

I have a question about the team instruction 'Be More Disciplined'. When using it, my team tends to only create a few attacks and is very passive offensively. Do you think this specific team instruction is more about 'taking fewer risks' than having a solid tactical shape?

Time wasting probably wasn't a bug. Your mentality was on attacking. Why would you waste more time when your playing attacking 🤷🏼‍♂️. That besides it's a good video man, people get confused with the instructions cuz it tells something in a certain way. This video is a good translation though you could have gone into the numbers with chance simulation etc. for the experienced players maybe.

Thanks. I'd like to see more in depth explanation on the mentalities and how that all connects with the TI's (maybe with some examples). The problem with all this, if u go only with the ingame explanation u could easily misinterpretate the TI's or go wrong with connecting all the tactic set ups (mentality, TI, roles etc.).

Maybe for beginners its just best to look at those default tactics and see what every style tactic uses on mentality, TI's ans roles to understand SI's interpretation on the tactic styles.

is it possible to win using a defensive/cautious mentality???

On FM2020 it was not... :/

Class video!

Super video.
