#footballmanager2024 #fm24tactics #fm24
Hi guys,
welcome back to my channel. This time, as requested by someone of you before, I emulated Philippe Clement's 4-2-3-1, the tactic he is using at Ibrox Park this year with great results. Currently he is 1st with 70 points, 2 points ahead of Celtic, and this year Rangers could really win the title. I hope so, I am not one of their fan but I sympatize for them more than for Celtic, because one of my favourite Italian players, Gattuso, played for them when he was young before coming back to Italy and becoming one of Milan's best players in history. In this video you will see a tactical analyisis made by myself with the aid of google tactical board, the emulation in the game, stats and highlights.
To emulate this tactic in #footballmanager2024 footballmanager2024, I started from a basic 4-2-3-1 with a positive mentality. Since Clement likes to play a possession-based game, in the team instructions, I selected a fairly wide attacking width, play out of defense (this way we can build from the back), shorter passing, slightly higher tempo, low crosses (even if sometimes we can see Rangers playing whippeld crosses too, but I prefer to use low crosses in the game it works better for possession tactics), work the ball into the box. In transition instructions, Clement likes his team to press high and win the ball as soon as possible, in order to launch counter-attacks from higher positions, easier to score. So counter-press and counter are a must in this tactic. As for goalkeeper instructions, take short kicks and distribute to the two center backs are suitable instuctions.
Finally, in the out of possession phase, high press and higher defensive line combined with a more often trigger press, step up more to apply the offside-trap and trap outside to force opponents to play near the touchline leaving them less options to dribble or pass. About players roles and instructions, our goalie, Butland can both play as simple goal-keeper in defend or sweeper-keeper on support, in Rangers matches we always see him playing with the ball and helping the build up so I chose the sweeper-keeper role in support (no instructions). The two full-backs are Tavernier and Barisic (or Yilmaz), Tavernier is definitely a complete wing-back (support). I instructed him to play more direct passes because you can see him often trying to play through passes to other midfielders and forwards, cross more often (if you take a look at Scottish Premier League stats, you can see that Tavernier and Yilmaz are among the players who made the greatest amount of crosses) and cut inside with the ball, when Tavernier has the ball he will try to cut inside and help build the play, but his main task is to cross from wider areas into the box. On the other side, we have Yilmaz (or Barisic), this role is a wing-back (support) and as for Tavernier, I instructed him to stay wider, cross more often and play more direct passes. The two central defenders, Goldson and Davies are two BPD in defend and if you want to see them carrying the ball forward to build the play from higher position and avoid pressing, then you can add the dribble more instructions to both of them. The two defensive mdifielders (I chose Lundstrom and Diomande, using the same formation of last game against Klimarnock) roles are a DLP (support) and Volante (support), both have the mark tigther instruction to be sure they will follow the opponents players). The volante (Diomande) is instructed to shoot more often this will allow him to try long range shots, get further forward because I want him to move into the box and push forward and close down more, while the DLP has the more direct passes instruction so that he can play through balls. The Attacking midfielder (attack) Lawrence is instructed to move into channels, roam from position because we will see him often exchanging position with the left winger or search for spaces, dribble more (he will carry the ball more) and tackle harder (he must apply pressing to the defenders). The left winger (Danilo, Cortes, Matondo) is an inside forward who will sit narrower and swap position with the AM and mark tigther, while Sterling, the right winger is a winger in attack with no instructions. Finally, the striker is an AF instructed to tackle harder. With this tactic I won all the Scottish League games and finished in Quarter Finals in champions league, dominating xg, possession and scoring more than 100 goals.
I hope this tactic works for you too, thanks for watching. If you liked this video please smash the like button and subscribe, thanks everyone.
