My #FM24 interested followers, here is a big thread of tactics I have used in 2024 on the game. All were title winning systems. First the Diamond midfield using three defensive midfielders.

Time to share the #FM24 defensive monster 4-Diamond-2 from Real Madrid. Only 11 goals conceded in the league all season and a massive number of clean sheets.

The game is not 11v11. The game is a series of ever changing moments. 1v1 2v1 3v1 4v1 2v2 3v2 4v2 5v2 5v3 3v3 4v3 5v3 6v3 7v4 You get the idea. Can you practice like it?

After the success of the Ajax 4-2-1-3 on #FM23 I have been taking the tactic and adapting to some of the game's great players to try and get the best out of them. This adaptation is at Manchester City and for Kevin de Bruyne. As you can see, the system changed to 4-1-2-3.

The England FA receive a large amount of criticism. some harsh, some fair, such is the way of anyone or anything tasked with the running of a sport. Ten years ago the FA released their DNA vision. Gareth Southgate sat at the side of Dan Ashworth as it was unveiled to the public.
