His FM 14 tactic attempts to recreate Barcelona’s real-life tactics, with a false nine striker upfront, a half back in the defensive midfielder position and so on.

Watch the video below to find out all the necessary details about this FM 2014 Barcelona tactic:

I do trust Jack but I thought it would be nice to test the tactic a bit, so I took over Arsenal and employed this tactic for the first 8 matches of the season to see how it works. The results were top notch, eight wins out of eight:

 

I have to say that I enjoyed watching the team play, always fluid and attacking but safe at the back as well. The average number of clear cut chances created per match was around 3, which is great. On the other hand the opponents rarely created clear cut chances, for instance Chelsea had 1 while we had 3 at Stamford Bridge.

My preferred line up was as follows: Szczeszny — Sagna, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Monreal — Flamini — Ramsey, Wilshere — Cazorla, Ozil — Giroud. The top goal scorer was Giroud, 8 goals in 7 starts, Ozil bagged 5 while Cazorla contributed 3 goals and 5 assists. Mesut Ozil had the highest average rating, a stunning 8.07 as he also delivered 4 assists in addition to those 5 goals.
