Enigma Tactics
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Style: Quick transitions. Recover the ball quickly, start counters and aim for the goal. Utilize the wings.
Player Profiles:
GK: Pat Jennings - compete keeper. Commanding in the air and great reflexes.
LB: Jose Antonio Camacho - balanced full back.
RB: Djalma Santos - defensive full back.
CB: Elias Figueroa - ball playing complete defender, start attacks from the back.
CB: Sol Campbell - physical stopper.
DM/CM: Cornel Dinu - defensive holder. Protect the back four and link the defence with midfield.
CM/B2B: Michael Essien - defensive B2B. Keep things compact and simple with his passing game and link midfield and attack.
AM/Free role: Ronaldinho - advanced playmaker, free role.
LW: Raheem Sterling - left winger, add numbers to the midfield when we are off the ball.
RW: Garrincha - right winger, use his pace and trickery to create numerical advantage.
CF: Gabriel Batistuta - center forward. Pressure the defenders, first line of defence and put the ball in the net.
Defence: Compact defence bossed by Figueroa. Djalma will provide cover at the back and free Garrincha to do his thing.
Midfield: Dinu will act as a holder and launch quick counters looking for Ronaldinho or the wings, whilst providing protection for the back four. Essien in his peak Chelsea days will act as a defensive B2B, covering every blade of grass.
Short highlights of Dinu as I think the only one lesser known player in the line up:
Attack: Blend of creativity, trickery, pace and deadly finishing ability, the attach has it all with Joga Bonito oomph of Ronaldinho, Garrincha and Sterling providing the ammo for one of the best finishers in Batistuta.
Key Strengths: Garrincha and Djalma Santos is a proven combo and probably the best right flank in history. Ronaldinho in free role hovering between the lines would utilize the space between opposition defence and midfield. Sterling, Garrincha and Ronaldinho is a terrific platform for Batistuta to shine and will provide him a lot of chances. The defensive line is marshalled by one of the best defenders in history in Figueroa alongside a physical stopper in Campbell who is elite defender himself. Both full backs are one of the most outstanding markers and defensively sound full backs in the game.
Isotope Tactics
Strong Points
- GOAT defensive and attacking balanced fullbacks. Compatible centerbacks: stopper and ball-playing. The "Big Dane" Schmeichel completed the set. Blanc and Tresor ranked Top 6 in France Player of the Century, above any other centerbacks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Player_of_the_Year#Player_of_the_Century
- Strong defensive midfielders with playmaking abilities, where Paulo Sousa as excellent long-ball passer.
- Superior goalscorers, with Dixie Dean (390 goals/447 games) and Rummenigge (220 goals/424 games).
- Superior midfield battle and creativity.
Tactic
Key in attack is Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. He'll be a floating inside-forward, capable of both stretching play, creative hub, and being a potent goalscoring threat as well. He's partnering Dixie Dean who was a complete center forward with his movement, while being as deadly as Muller.
"Dixie Dean, a wizard with his feet, but just as deadly with his head, as strong as a house, and just as hard to knock off the ball, as clean in his play as a new pin, a great sportsman, and a trier to the end. Dixie was always a tough handful, not only because he was so big and fast, but because he used to roam out on to the wings, taking the centre-half with him, and, frequently, slipping him, making it extremely hard for the rest of the defence to keep some sort of order." ~Eddie Hapgood, the Arsenal full-back
Two of the best wingers in the game are Boniek and Julinho. They are fast, tricky, and also flexible to go inside as second striker or helping midfielder. I like how @Moby described him which painted Boniek as hardworker creative force, more than just pure winger:
..he was primarily a creative player, so much so that the Juve president made the statement that whoever plays next to him will be the Serie A top goalscorer as a result of his exquisite ability on the ball in terms of dribbling and passing. That statement was true both at Juve with Platini and then again when Boniek moved to Roma. https://www.redcafe.net/threads/sheep-draft-r1-harms-vs-arbitrium-voting-closed.443507/page-3
Midfield and defence are self explanatory. In Paulo Sousa, I have player who can turn defence into attack with his long passing ability to the quick and direct wingers and forwards.
