Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 5: 3-4-1-2 meets Player Roles
The formation that I like to call a close relative of the 3-5-2, this formation does basically everything that episode 3's one does with the caveat of having an extra attacker who has the intention to operate in between the lines and cause havoc for the opposition. Ofcourse, with the extra attacker, this means that … Continue reading Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 5: 3-4-1-2 meets Player Roles
Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 4: 3-4-3 meets Player Roles
We continue our look at the best of the 3 at the back series with today's episode, lads. The 3-4-3 formation is one of the better formations to use in terms of if you have a fetish for wide play... It provides a numerical advantage in the wide areas with your wide D(C)'s, M(R,L)'s, and … Continue reading Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 4: 3-4-3 meets Player Roles
Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 3: 3-5-2 meets Player Roles
Episode 3...... We waste no time in getting into the nitty gritty, Socermanagerites. Arguably one of the best formations within the entire game, the 3-5-2 formation is one that provides extreme levels of balance no matter if your team is aiming to cause positional triangles within possession or seeking to make themselves a defensive wall … Continue reading Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 3: 3-5-2 meets Player Roles
Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 2: 3-1-3-3 meets Player Roles
And here we are.... Getting the season underway with arguably the most unorthodox formation within the entirety of S.M.W... Now, as many of you Soccermanagerites should already know, we've went through each formation in more detail within season 3, but for just a quick briefing: The 3-1-3-3 is a centrally biased formation that seeks to … Continue reading Season 9: PLAYER ROLES MEETS FORMATION MATTERS; EPISODE 2: 3-1-3-3 meets Player Roles

SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON :BONUS EPISODE: S.M.W SUPERSTARS (JUDE BELLINGHAM)
If it's one thing that many of us Soccermanagerites tend to look forward to is those sweet sweet player rating improvements! We mark our calenders in anticipation of players that we've seen doing a madness within their respective league, as well as those who haven't been up to speed and seem to be on the … Continue reading SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON :BONUS EPISODE: S.M.W SUPERSTARS (JUDE BELLINGHAM)
SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON EPISODE 14: INJURIES & HOW TO NAVIGATE THEM
One of the most difficult and annoying things about SMW that we all have to go through is the fact there's certain phases within each season where we potentially lose an integral part of our team to an injury. What's more, what makes it even worse is when these injuries occur just before important matches. … Continue reading SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON EPISODE 14: INJURIES & HOW TO NAVIGATE THEM
SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON EPISODE 13: THE FORGOTTEN ROLE PT.2 (Box to Box Roles)
(UPDATE: SUMMER 2025) The season of randomness just keeps on giving! You'd think by now that I'd have ran out of ideas for this season, but, in the spirit of the great Johan Cruyff: "Football is a never ending cycle of tactical and philosophical revolutions" (I don't even think he actually said that... 😅). In … Continue reading SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON EPISODE 13: THE FORGOTTEN ROLE PT.2 (Box to Box Roles)
SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON EPISODE 12: HOW TO WIN THE SMFA CUP WITHOUT BEING A GOLD MANAGER
I mentioned in episode 10 that the league is the second most difficult competition to win behind the SMFA World Cup. I stand corrected however, as I was not thinking about today's topic: The SMFA Cup. We've been discussing this cup competition since Season 1 but one thing that has never been discussed is an … Continue reading SEASON 8: THE RANDOM SEASON EPISODE 12: HOW TO WIN THE SMFA CUP WITHOUT BEING A GOLD MANAGER
