Iamauser's Devastating Counter
I dont think anyone would disagree with me in saying Brendan Rodgers has turned Liverpool into a frightening counter attacking side, so I tasked myself with trying to replicate his style of play. It is currently still in testing, but I have so far had excellent results, and I am looking for you guys to test it too.
The Formation
I have developed two 5-4-1 tactics, the one on the left being the main tactic, with the one on the right being an away/solid tactic. I have so far started every game with the first tactic, and then I usually switch to the second one around the 70th minute if I want to shut up shop and sit on the lead.
The Players
Due to the tactic involving a very high pressing game, it is important all players have good work rate.
Goalkeeper: Nothing special here just your standard goalkeeper
Full backs: Your full backs need to have good stamina and pace, and good crossing will be a plus. They will push forward and look to provide support for the inside forwards
Centre Backs: Again just standard centre backs
Regista: This is one of the most important positions on the pitch. Your Regista will need to be a well rounded midfielder, who can both tackle and pass very well.
PPMs: Tries Long Range Passes, Tries Killer Balls Often
Box to Box Midfielder: Another well rounded midfielder who will need good stamina and work rate
Advanced Playmaker: This player will be your most technically gifted player. He is given licence to roam, and will play a big part in creating goals. Must have good pace
PPM: Tries Killer Balls Often
Inside Forwards: Your inside forwards will provide you with both goals and assists. Pace is key with these players. Good passing, crossing and finishing are required too. Being able to use both feet will also help as they will swap wings.
PPMs: Runs often with ball, Cuts inside
Advanced Forward: Again pace is key. Lots of ball will be floated over the top of the defense, or through on the ground leaving your AF with a one on one situation
PPMs: Runs with ball often, Tries to beat offside trap
