We'll show you our 4-2-2-2 custom tactics and instructions, we believe this year the four Triple Two is one of the best-attacking formations, it is just ridiculous how many options you have going forward, and there's a reason Pro players are using this formation right now in the elite division because it makes it very easy to beat defensive lines in FIFA 23.
Tactics
Let us go ahead, and show you the custom tactics. The defensive style is balanced, the width is 45, the depth is 70, for offence, build up play is balanced, chance creation is direct passing, width is 50, players on the box 5, corners and free kicks are both on two.
The reason you don't want a lot of players in a box on the tactics in this formation is that when you do that a lot of players start just running in their next thing you are very vulnerable on like a quick counter-attack, when in the crossing zone you will have some players making runs into the penalty area if it's the right time to make the run, so you don't want a lot of players in a box in the four Triple Two formation, you just keep it to five-transcration on direct policing same thing as last year, it pushes back your opponent's defensive line allowing you to have more space to work with, once the team enters the attacking zone with possession players will create chances by making runs for passes into space behind the opposing back line, strikers who are fast with a good attacking positioning attribute are the best at this tactic, the depth being at 70, you don't want this too low, you don't want this at like 50, you don't want this at like 40, 70 is a very nice depth for this formation because you want to play a high line, you want to try to press your opponent, you want to try taking that ball as soon as possible, adjust your defensive team shape to be balanced to keep your team in the middle of the pitch to try to win the midfield battle, so you can go for a quick counter attack yourself, so playing a high depth is very useful.
