FIFA 09 - Team Tactics

11 league titles have been given, 264 games have been played, 334 goals have been scored, and more than 2640 minutes of FIFA 09 football so far this year. Unfortunately, the latest league was probably gonna be our last small FIFA 09 league tournament. drift king's departure for Sunderland, UK have forced me to end it prematurely.

However, there is a possibility for someone else to replace drift king's position. If you live in Seremban or anywhere near it, you are welcome to join our little FIFA 09 league.

Anyway, the point of this post is to show you the team tactics' been used between the four of us. Firstly, let's take a look at my tactics:

SparkyX2020's "one-touch" tactics

I'm known among my friends that I play one-touch-passing most of the time, and I will always play that way in any football games. Just like Martin Tyler said in the game, "Football is a passing game..." and I seem to follow that philosophy since FIFA 08. Pass the ball around the pitch and wait for the killer pass before putting the ball at the back of the net. That's SparkyX2020 style of play.

Secondly, it's drift king's:

drift king's "panzer" tactics

drift king's approach is much more direct. His killer long balls and straightforward play have made him the overall topscorer in FIFA 09 with 109 goals. Just like the Germans in 2006 World Cup, his tactics require fast runners and good ball controls before putting the ball to the back of the net. That's drift king style of play.

Thirdly, the one-sided player, abg botak:

abg botak's "wings" tactics

Typical English style of play had always been the wing-play. abg botak's tactics are no exception. He is probably the most stylish and effective wing player among the four of us. Passing the ball down the flanks before putting crosses, pullbacks, or unexpected shots are his favourite tactics, and it just seem to work everytime we put our defence off guard. That's abg botak's style of play.

Last but no least, Biawak's tactics:

Biawak's "pass-back" tactics

Biawak's tactics are similar to SparkyX2020's, but the only problem is that his players tend to stay deep. Passing back to defenders and one-two's between the front two are his favourite movements, but his inability to score goals on regular basis is what letting him down. However, his tactics seem to work everytime he plays against SparkyX2020. That's Biawak style of play.
