We’ve already seen Dynamics and the new Scouting System, so now it’s time to check out the changes to tactics.
Football Manager 2018: Tactical Revamp
One of the most prominent features of this year’s game is the changes to the the tactical interface.
The tactics screen is now split into two, with ‘tactics’ and ‘players’ separate to allow you to see both sides at once and reduce any of the old clutter.
There’s also plenty to sink your teeth into in the the pre-match briefing.
Essentially, you can now tell your squad what you’re looking for in the game ahead, while each member of the team can provide you with feedback on their given instructions.
Analysis also plays a bigger role in this year’s game.
There’s now a dedicated analysis section added to the tactics panel, which shows trends from recent matches and clearly specifies both positive and negative aspects of previous performances.
The player and team instructions have changed too, with new options allowing for greater variety.
There’s even more options in the set piece creator, allowing more details when preparing for free kicks and corners.
