I feel bad when u said it was ur most requested suggestion with 2 comments because ur such an underrated channel and most kids nowadays just sit on their Xbox or PlayStation thinking they know a lot by playing Fifa
I felt the exact same and yeah I agree too! It's a shame FIFA doesn't have more variety in tactics to be more precise cause I'd love having the ability to make your own tactics that aren't just ones you have to pick from. If like been able to make my own unique ones that nobody has used before or thought of
@@tomloftus3236it does man!!
Everyone has a small start
Not a kid but I felt this at one point but it’s so much deeper than that
Well, he just got a new subscriber :]
In 1980, I was coaching a U15 team. At that time, many here in the US were still learning the rudiments of the game. We were using the 4-3-3 but didn't really know it, as the fourth defender was the 'sweeper'.... remember those?
We languished midtable for several years until, after much thought, I put my best player at center half, changed the midfield to a triangle with the center up and the others back (as shown in the video), and changed the name of the center half to 'forward sweeper'. I encouraged the forward sweeper to 'underlap' the outside forwards when appropriate while keeping his defensive responsibilities in mind.
We destroyed nearly everyone we played over the next three years, with average skilled players on the pitch.
By the 4th defender sweeper do you mean the libero?
Shut up
Yep, the sweeper...sometimes still used today!
nicely done.. I did some boys coaching and although we scored plenty I never really built a strong defensive counter. Those boys had plenty of skill and heart sadly washout a defense I let them down.
Hello Palace fan
This is the single most useful tactics channel I know. I've been following Tifo forever, but they rarely get to the nuts-and-bolts of specific formations they way you do. I'll be coming here often.
Thanks man appreciate it
They started a new channel called Tifo IRL where they get into this kind of stuff too…….this channel and theirs are my favorites rn
@@Kakhsa Thanks for the heads-up. I'll be heading over there, too.
@@Kakhsa Thanks for the heads-up. I'll be heading over there, too.
Have u checked out Football Made Simple?
I'm working as a sports reporter and this is excellent work for us to understand better how the coaches use their formation. Thank you very much for all the important information! Keep up the good work!
Thanks man, appreciate it 🙌🏻

I am a U18 coach using the 4-3-3 now. I played this in high-school back in the 80s and loved it. The 4-3-3 is very solid and simple for beginners with the many wonderful potentials explained terrifically in this video-thanks!
Simple yes but you need great players to make it shine
Supremely underrated channel. You've got yourself a new subscriber.
I guess the natural next step is the 4-4-2. People call it outdated these days, but there's a simplistic beauty that can't be matched by anything else.
Thank you! Yeah for sure I'll be updating this playlist shortly. The 4-4-2 does seem to be making a comeback as well, some big teams in Europe are doing quite well with it
I’m not a huge fan of the 4-4-2. I lite to have lots of mids and 2 strikers sort of hinders that. I prefer the 4-5-1 (or 4-3-3 however you look at it) or the 3-6-1 (or 3-4-3). In a fifa manager mode I though of a 2-7-1. That’s the type of person I am.
4-1-4-1 is the best ,

442 evolution is 42222, they do set dis a lot in bundesliga.
@@Alexa-dt8fm this didn't age well haha
Got a lot of questions in my head prior to watching the video. You've answer them all in this awesome and informative video. Definitely deserved more subs! Keep it up!
This channel is very underrated. Keep up the good work 👍🏽
Thank you!
@@FootballMeta np. Also fyi barca has been playing in more of a 343 lately with de Jong as a libero and messi+dembele+griezmann upfront
I see so many tactics channels, but there is this easily digestible depth to your explanations. Great visuals. Very very good work, sir.
I like how you provided examples of teams and players at each position. Now, I can watch those teams to see the formation in action. Also, great breakdown of the strengths and weaknesses. Fantastic Job!
Thanks man!
This is my new favourite channel, its so informative but I can tell you are incredibly funny, you just rattle little one liners off like its nothing, and that graphic... well deserved sub.
Just discovered this channel now and already one of my favorite tactics channels. Keep bringing these great videos!
My academy has been trying to teach these principles to the players for a year with little to no results but you've explained then perfectly in under 15 minutes. I honestly wish we sometimes had strictly tactical training, as all weaknesses and setbacks you explained are what's keeping us from finishing top of the league. (we often finish 3rd or 4th due to individual games where we concede too many goals.)
great talk. I have played a 4-2-3-1 and is very similar to the 4-3-3 . When you attack from a 4-2-3-1 in theory you would become a 4-3-3. Only different is when saying it as a 4-2-3-1 the wingers understand they have to go back and defend where as a 4-3-3 they might think they can stay up front. when choosing a formation you have to play to the strength of your players and not forcing them into doing that they are not good at.
Yup I’m learning that especially if you don’t have depth of top quality players or gaps in levels have to play to your strengths with the right formation
Yes. pox on all cherry-picking forwards.! Lol j/k... well mostly j/k
Personally had a bit of an opposite problem with the 4231, where the attacking and defensive mids would both stay too "literal" to their named roles and leave a big gab between them, both ruining our build up and leaving us with vulnerable spaces in opposite possession...
Meanwhile it then worked much better as a set 433, as the three centre mids were much more focused on their roles as actual "midfielders" and the attacking wings knowing they also needed to support the perimeter defense whenever the opponent attacked on their side.. As another benefit, in the 433 the CF/"9" was supported better in our attack than it was playing as a 4231...
Strange enough, as they are fairly similar systems, but I guess it ultimately always comes down to the individual players and their understanding/interpretation of the roles that they're given 🤷🏻♂️
❤
Great job explaining each individual players duties, my daughters team plays this formation and I’m sure this video will help her and her teammates learn the game that much more! Thanks again.
Thank so much for making informative and high quality videos! You're very underrated but remember the people who use the info in the videos are extremely grateful for you.
Great review. I'm playing football manager and sometimes I get confused with the roles I should give to my players but you made it all clear to me. Thumbs up my guy
just found this channel. treasure. keep it up my guy.
I found this channel accidentally
It is the sweetest accident for me
The team I play for plays this formation and everything you said was spot on. Really helpful and great video.
Excellent description of roles, thanks man I'm learning a lot please create more content explaining other formations as well👏👏
Thanks for your videos, it's hard to find anyone else who explains tactics, keep making content and good luck
Incredible video. A complex subject explained in a very simple way but covering everything involved...Very good and thanks for the video.
Can you please make a video of Cruyff's 343 diamond system... thanks
Really great video! Thanks for the thorough explanation of the 4-3-3.
Great video. I have used this for years with my high school and club team to score a high number of goals each season. We are utilizing It now with my Girls premier U18 team. We scored 12 goals in our first 3 matches and only had 4 against. The team that score more than the other guys always wins!
Brother, I loved this video and explanation of the scenarios.
I coach, and I will be rewatching this more. Great value in the content. Thank you so much for putting this together!
Bro you are doing great work... It's a shame to see so much less subscribers on your channel and less likes on your videos but mate keep doing your good work, we will support you and hope in future you will get much more appreciation for your great work 😍
Thanks man, we'll get there one day! The channel is growing nicely thanks to everyone's support
Just came across your channel, this is the first video I've came across. Love how detailed and in depth you go! I really love the tactical and analysis side of the game and this is just what I'm looking for. Cause I know my tactics and it's good to share my own mind with your videos and compare views it's great! Keep It up 👍👊 just subbed
Thanks man appreciate it 🙌🏻
This video is absolutely stellar. I usually know the basic ideas of a formation but struggle to properly articulate it whenever I'm talking. Not only that, but the USMNT, the national team I follow, employs this formation with the absence of a creator, and it always feels like a struggle to make chances in open play. Because of this, a lot of people are calling for Musah or Reyna to start in that position instead of on the wing, but we've yet to see Gregg Berhalter do anything of the sort.
You also made note of the biggest weakness of the USMNT this year - our transition from offense to defense is usually slow and dangerously so.
USMNT aint real football. I love football with a passion but when i watch mls I cringe so hard
"My name is @@Hector-xe6xr. I like football, but my favorite sport is ignoring topics of conversation and telling everyone that I think I am better than they are."
@@Hector-xe6xr Can't love football with a passion when you say shit like this.
Wow! Amazing video and the explanation was complete and logical! Congratulations for your work! 👏🏻👏🏻😘
I've played soccer all my life and ive never had a coach explain anything in detail like you have in this video. Absolutely so informative.
Good video. I have to say I was a fan of the 3-5-2 formation, for its flexibility and fluidity, you have to look at balance and as I like to have that and wingers, thjis seems to win the day.Not withstanding that England, to add to the list of teams you mention won a worldcup with this 4 3 3, it kind of speaks for itself. I enjoyed it and have subscribed to your channel
I´ve been looking for a video like this for years. Thank you so much
Fantastic video. It was just what I needed to understand for formation. Thanks!
That's call real content. I like how this guy explained pretty well using animation. That's pretty informative and useful. Thanks
Amen! I’ve been coaching for 15 years and I love this channel!
Well done! Thanks for the overview of the 4.3.3!
This is the best channel that I have come across. Thanks brother for making it easy to understand these formations.
thanks for your content bro, you definitely know what you're talking about. Cheers mate
Please do 3-4-3 Diamond. Like Johan Cruyff’s Barcelona. Thanks!
Thanks
Ah yes, please.
Football Made Simple did it
This is my first ever video from your channel, and I have paused the video at 2:14 to post this comment, and to hit the subscribe button! Love from India!
You have been amazing . Keep doing the stuff you are doing 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Brilliant work mate💯
Griezmann as target man at barca gave me a good chuckle. Nice try bro. That really worked out well!
This is an astute explanation.... I just subscribed !!!
One of the best explanation videos so far..you've earned a new sub
Mine too
Me and my team just won our first match of the season using the 433 formation. We thought we performed better with the 442 formation but nothing could be further from the truth. We were explicitly told to keep the midfielders close to each other, and it worked wonders.
After watching this video analysis, I now understand why Arteta's young Arsenal team is doing so good in EPL... Every detail u shared is being followed by Gunners, with inverted full backs to covering runs and wingers track backing for defensive duties... Wonderful!! ⚽
#COYG #ComeOnArsenal
Thank u for this detailed breakdown.. Appreciate it!! 🙏👌
man your are doing some really good work there no one I have ever seen simplifies the formations like this please come up with other formations too um literally taking notes
Thanks man 🙌🏻
God damn, I just wanted to get better at FIFA and understand tactics more when watching games, I’ve looked everywhere and this was the most useful and simplest explanation I’ve come across. Subbed. Thank you for such quality 🙏🏽
Really great video. Our coach (USA) needs to watch this so he understands how the formation he wants to play should work, haha.
This is so enlightening and well detailed.

Ps one question where did you buy your tactical board?
Nice explanation along with visual effects👍👍
Great content and best for me to learn more on the 4-3-3 formation.
Showing real in game examples of what you’re talking about would put the icing on this wonderful cake of information
Yeah I'm definitely going to add that into my future videos
Great video … not too complex…. Very succinct. Keep up the great work ‼️⚽️
Maybe mark the disk with player positions so as the shape changes you can follow a little easier who is where & doing what. ✌🏼

Please make a video on how Italian managers like Conte, Allegri or others like Mourinho defend and form defensive layers to frustrate the opposition.
Nice work!
Hi am new to this video and am very impressed by the way you explained the 433. This formation i use all the time playing fifa cuz its very dinamic and its well balanced and works really well in transitioning. Who knows one day i can see coaching as a career
