I need help. Idk what I'm doing wrong. I can't get out of my own half in online matches. Everyone presses so high and I end up losing the ball every time and concede like 8 goals every game. And I only get like 3 shots the entire match if im lucky. Everyone just sprints from defense to goal and scores.
I tried 41212(2) and solved my doubt, this year having a 2 strikers formation gives you a huge advantage, every action you have your 2 ST vs. 2 DC plus your Cam getting into.. It is super OP for me
So sweaty, honestly this is the best way to play Fifa nowadays, but can’t we all agree it’s so one dimensional. I’m sick of playing these boring long build up games. Hardly any variety.
@@adambermingham737 3-5-2 is pure fun. Stick to it and you'll get used to its faults as well. Been playing it for 2 weeks now and I barely concede now playing depth at 5 and balanced.
@@sunnyp8612 imagine a fifa 14 gameplay but with more skill moves, icons, more tactics , content, story mode, objectives, friendlies and all the stuff we have now(except shit gameplay)..it would be amazing.
@@samuelbiswas615 you're so right. The thing is FIFA can't allow cheap teams to beat expensive ones, so they encourage wasting your money in FIFA points to open packs so you can have decent players after spending hundreds of €.

oooooh Neal coming in with them high quality live edits unreal man keep up the content most consistent tactical uploader for fifa ever much love man I’ll support by not skipping ads as well.
Dude, I dont know if this was a coincidence but I was 5 and 1 in champs before watching this... I normaly finish gold 3. I've never messed with instructions and stuff and always play a 442 or a 41212. Since watching this and using it I'm now 10-5 in champs. I hope this isn't a coincidence and the wins keep coming. Thank you
Hi, I have a question, if you could please answer. You changed the formation where attackers are all CAM. so playing LM, RM on CAM postion , doest affect their chemistry and stats ? Because, if you would have noticed, when in quad editing mode, you put lets say striker in CAM postion, in playsers attribute the attributes goes down by 8 to 10 . Everything.
I started the wl with high depth 442/4231 trying to close my opponent in his half , Went 7 and 4, terrible defending. Then i tried this 4231, omg dude went 10-0 , thank you dude!!! Actually very balanced!!! Keep it up with the content
I’ve only lost one game out of the seven games I’ve played with this formation. Before this I was on a loosing streak. Thankyou so much !! I’m subscribing and will be keeping a close eye on your future videos!
Any objections as to why not have your DM (Rabbiot) to Drop Between Defenders? I use B. Andre Rulebreaker (DBD) & IF Renato to attacking and it has given me good results. I'd like to hear your cases on why Stay Back instead of DBD. Thanks!
I really appreciate the content and the help you provide! I’ve been having a shitty time but cause of the patch and this video helped me get back on track! Thanks again!
Why not get in the box for crosses for cam? I sometimes find my self playing a through ball for the st/lam/ram and then finding a cut back to the cam for an easy goal in your previous tactics for this formation.
do you reccomend the same formation with adjusted tactics for ultra defensive and attacking ? or are there any specific formations and tactics you recommend for those styles?
Played 2 games in d1 won 2 and they had neymar mbappe viera Ronaldo and I beat em 4-0 and played 1 game on fut champs and won like nothing thanks for the video 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Neal, I have Kante & Allan CDM in 4-2-3-1 (one of your first custom tactics videos) would you recommend I change Allan for Bruno or KDB for this tactic?
Do you use the 4231 or 4231(2)? For the original 4231, it's hard to find CAMs who are natural wingers and I dont think its possible to modify a winger's position to be a CAM. Would playing wingers out of position significantly impact their CHM level?
Hey man! Very useful video but i have a question. I am using Messi as CAM and his stamina is a bit problematic. Can I apply these tactics for messi? What should I do with him? Come back, balanced or stay forward?
I normally love your tips and that, but since using these tactics I've gone from being elite 2 last week to losing 2 in my first 7 games of champs to gold level players.
yes my friend, I dont think thats the tactics lol, watch your gameplay back you are probably rushing or making mistakes, a formation wont make you lose if everoyne is on come back on defence
@@NealGuides ok thank you man, I didn't intend for that to come across as being salty blaming you or anything I was just wondering if maybe you thought I should go back to using your older tactics as I've been struggling to dominate in my opponents half or score many goals. Thanks for the tips though
I had 4 wins out of 15 on champs. I tried this formation and alone with my desperate measured version of 451 counter and 541 see a game out but hit on break. Ibe won 5 in a row something I've not done in weeks. I'm a div 3 player normally get gold 2 and just struggled lately. Thia 4231 formation got me back it feels so flowing and attacking I have the pace of prime owen and who I believe is the best cam on the game in prime baggio I've had 4 rage quits and 3-0 inside 8 mins. Neal reply on twitter am interested in your fifa training bro
@@NealGuides he's untradeable but I put him in my team and managed to get full chem . Btw your tactics have literally helped me won games bro so keep what doing what you do 💙
I'm new to the game so i don't understand what tactics to use when im in balance, attacking, or ultra attacking? because in this video he only edits the ultra defensive game plan correct?
I have Kanté and Valverde on CDM on a Shadow. Does it make sense to put valverde offensive, since he is so good defensively ? I mean i could put both then just on stay back cover center no conservative, no cut passing lanes. Or is that a bad idea? My Centerbacks are Wan Bissaka on 10 chem and Walker on 7 so i can track back very well with my centerbacks on counter attacks and after pressing with my center backs.
Can I use these tactics on a 433 and then change the formation to a 4231 in game or does the tactics disappear when I change the formation during the game?
I’m a good fifa player I won 40 games in a row but later on I notice a lot of players do very cheeky passing and my defense doesn’t react how I want them to so ima try this out
Great vid as always Neal, I got a charity tournament coming up for school, what do U think is the most meta team to use in kick off mode in FIFA? France? Can be club or country thanks
@@mj23dark true but defensively it’s a bit weak, I was thinking France cuz I get the likes of varane, kante, mbappe, yedder and ferland all in one squad pretty OP
I think as Eggson said PSG, I would defo go with PSG but if you find them a bit weak and you are allowed internationals then France is really good, if its club only I would go with PSG/Man City/Liverpool! Best wishes with your charity tournament!
@@saze304 if you are a good player who can abuse Neymar and Mbappe use PSG. If you are not consistently hitting 24+ wins each week I'd go with Liverpool due to them having 11 very good players rather than 2 players and 9 dummies.
idk if its only to me but when i put my rm and lm to the cam position they have 4 chemestry instead of 10 they had should i change their positions or buy new?I just saw dembele and bambawhich they are also r,l (w,m)
So to clarify, you're editing "Ultra Defensive" here? What about defensive, balanced, attacking etc? or do you just stay Ultra Defensive the whole match?

How do u get the 4231 formation
Hi, im new here. Loved your video. Quick quedtion tho. Are any of the formations with 5 defenders worth a try?
Why do you have neymar in strikte and mbappe on cam
I will maybe come to your patron but just nor yet. I just wanna thank you again for this formation. I cant loose more. Haha😀👍
I need help. Idk what I'm doing wrong. I can't get out of my own half in online matches. Everyone presses so high and I end up losing the ball every time and concede like 8 goals every game.

Same here
It's doesn't matter for him skip you or not.
@@nestvik finally someone that understands
@@rotegino7536 but I don't understand his English :/
this guy can make arsenal win the league
This formation is the most consistent in the game. Been using it a long time since you recommended last year.
Have to test this because until now I have not felt well playing the 4231 this year. Last FIFA it was a rock for me
Same here
I am having trouble with this formation aswell
I just switched from 4231 to 442(2) cause i couldn't attack well anymore
I tried 41212(2) and solved my doubt, this year having a 2 strikers formation gives you a huge advantage, every action you have your 2 ST vs. 2 DC plus your Cam getting into.. It is super OP for me
Until the patch I was nailing in the 4231, now I feel that the LAM and RAM are always too wide and it leaves my CAM with few passing options
So sweaty, honestly this is the best way to play Fifa nowadays, but can’t we all agree it’s so one dimensional. I’m sick of playing these boring long build up games. Hardly any variety.
Completely agree, have been playing 3-5-2 this wekeend and although probably conceded twice as many goals definitely had more fun!
@@adambermingham737 3-5-2 is pure fun. Stick to it and you'll get used to its faults as well. Been playing it for 2 weeks now and I barely concede now playing depth at 5 and balanced.
@@adambermingham737 i miss fifa 11 to 14. 352 was the best formation to use. Also using silver teams beating gold teams was amazing.

BRO, thank you!!!! I usually finished silver one, but with this I actually made it to gold 1, I felt like I was playing squad battles against people, god bless you
until ps6 comes out, let's assume 4231 is the most meta formation
Fair
4-4-2(2) is good for me
@@jonathanwilson9902 much better to create chances.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Many, many times! 5 wins in a row. First time in life. Really! No joke!
Is the gameplay for you guys extremely slow too? It feels weird but not delayed.
For the past two days for me it’s been so slow
Especially at the 70+ minutes 🙃
@@xcityboi strange but true. I feel that as well, defender become statue in 70th minutes upward even though it still has good amount of stamina
They slowed down the game that’s why

Is this the formation and tactics you would use for the whole game, or are there separate videos for defensive, attacking and ultra attacking?
You use ultra defending all game
@@gaucho1905 thx
Really loving these in depth tutorials woth explanations, keep up the good work
Is 442(2) still meta?
tried 4231 with so many different teams this year and it has been horrible for me so will test this tomorrow 👍🏻

Will this tactic work same with the 4-2-3-1(2) formation, which have LM and RM ???
With these tactics, should you be playing on Ultra Defensive the entire time?
I was wondering the same thing
Me same

Does it matter if it is 4-2-3-1 or 4-2-3-1 (2)? What is the diffence between these 2 formations?
great video! question though: why is it only for 'ultra defensive' tactic? can you also show for defensive, attacking and u.attacking?
Thanks NG for another great video will be trying this out for sure
Tried it recently, works well. Thanks)
Is pogba a good RCDM in this formation?
This looks good tbh.. i havnt really found 4231 good this year.. but worth giving a try again with these tactics.. nice video
How do I get a 4231 with cam lam and ram? My only options are with a LM and a RM or with cam right together
It's just 3 CAMs. People say RAM and LAM for practicity. Outside of the custom tactics the formation looks real narrow, like a triangle.
I had 4 wins out of 15 on champs. I tried this formation and alone with my desperate measured version of 451 counter and 541 see a game out but hit on break.

best guide ever 👍 keep going dude
Thank you for this breakdown i already used the formation but could not het the tactics right for the life of me
love from germany thanks for keepin us all update even with every new patch thank you a lot
Valverde would make good on the place of Rabiot? As the defensive midfielder?
This has made such an improvement thanks alot
i go into the game with a 433 with a CDM and change to the 4231 in game with my LW and RW in LAM and RAM in game is that good or bad?
yeah mostly everyone changes to 4231 in the beginning of the game
An amazing video, the best around !
This tactic and instruction is it to start the game ?❤

BTW if I'm down by a goal after halftime I can put Atal from the bench as offensive CDM for Kanté.
Will hug the sidelines work with this? Using LM and RM instead of cams
Alright neal, whenever I need tactics I always use your videos I have the old 4-2-3-1 tactics are these ones better?
Great video thanks!
Can I use these tactics on a 433 and then change the formation to a 4231 in game or does the tactics disappear when I change the formation during the game?
That tactics and formations goes for only ultradefensive or offensive too?
Thanks a lot man, my defenders were all over the place and they were making unreasonable runs.
Can this formation out play ay 442 cause i always strugle against a 442 flat whuch formation should i yous?❤

Keep it up 👍
Do you think this formation would work for pro clubs?
This tactic works with Liverpool ?
What starting 11 do you use with Liverpool ? Who is the striker ?
I play 4222, the 2 CAMs + 2 STs offer so much opportunity to score 👍

Are these good tactics?
Does theese works on 4-2-3-1(2) variaton?
