Championship Manager 93/Tactics

Style

You can choose between Long ball, Pass to feet, Counter-attack, Continental, or Direct ball. Overall, it is unsure whether it makes much difference what style you use. But the chosen style will impact the performance of each player based on their skill set, so it is not a good idea to change style often.

Formation

You can either use one of the pre-defined formations or create your own formations by rearranging player positions. An offensive formation tends to work well. For example, a great formation is to line up your players in a 3-3-1-3 formation. 3 Central Defenders, 3 Centre Mids, a Support and Three Centre forwards. This formation will work well in any version of CM1.

Win bonus

A win bonus may be set for your players to be extra motivated for the next game.

Captain

When choosing a captain, you have to choose a player with a high level of influence, preferably close to 20. This increases your team’s ability to create chances and to convert chances into goals.
