GetSacked! is back the Football Manager tactics podcast from FM-Britain. Matt vom Brocke (The next Diaby) and Gareth Millward (Millie) answer your questions about everything FM related, including:
- The new tactics creator - is this the death of downloaded tactics?
- Tactics in the lower leagues – why is the jump from the regional leagues to the Conference so darn tricky?
- And we talk sweepers – they may be on strike in Leeds, but are they alive and kicking in FM defences?
Plus, we discuss real life football and how it relates to the game, answer more of your questions in the quick-hits section, and general footballing goodness. All on GetSacked! The Football Manager Tactics Podcast.
