4-1-3-2 Velvet Blitzkrieg Tactic – Recreating the Mighty Czechs

4-1-3-2 Velvet Blitzkrieg Tactic – Recreating the Mighty Czechs

Comments 1 Comment

This article is dedicated to that amazing team from 2004 which was able to take Czech Republic national football to heights it never experienced since. I believe that modern managers can learn something from the Czechs tactic. Recreating this 4-1-3-2 Velvet Blitzkrieg Tactic, as I like to call it, will be the focus of this article. It will be my last tactical experiment in Football Manager 2019. It is also my attempt to get back to the essence of what…

So it should be another great year with AS Roma in FM20. Here are some of the reason why I love my FM19…

My 4-2-3-1 tactic is no different. It took me a few months of experimenting with various tactical setups and teams to arrive to its current form. In my second season as AS Roma manager I am about to take a brave new step into the future. But first…
