#301019 Overtaking Brazil
Ipswich Knights
Its an idea i've had for a while, but sadly not the patience to actually attempt it. So I thought i'd put it out there and maybe you can be the one to conquer it?
What is the challenge?
Brazil have won more World Cups than any other nation, 5 to be exact. You must lead a country with no previous World Cup victories to their name, and win the famous trophy 6 times to overtake Brazil and become the most successful nation in the world.
World Cup Winners List
5 - Brazil
4 - Italy & Germany
2 - Argentina & Uruguay
1 - England, France & Spain
Rules
- You must win all of your titles with the same nation.
- Your selected nation must have never won the World Cup before.
- No use of the in game editor.
- Your reputation and coaching badges can be set to whatever you like.
- You can start unemployed or go straight into a job, its your choice.
- If you were to lose at a World Cup and Brazil go on to get their 6th crown, then you must go on for 7 wins to beat the challenge.
- Got sacked? No worries. As long as the country you were managing don't go on to win a World Cup without you, you can still take the job back at a later date and continue. But if they do win it without you, then you must find another nation or restart the challenge.
Suggested Teams
These are the teams I would look at if I were to actually attempt it. You don't have to use them, but they would probably give you the best chance.
- Holland
- Portugal
- Belgium
- Croatia
- Colombia
Finally, if you are actually going to attempt this, good luck!

#300863 Creating Brazil 1970 in FM16
Ipswich Knights
This is what I have so far
Felix - Was basically a standard goalkeeper from what I can tell.
Carlos Alberto - Complete wing back in every sense of the word always got forward and attacked at will.
Brito - Pretty standard CD
Piazza - Probably more of the ball playing centre defender but not a fan of the FM role for that so he will be used as a CD.
Everaldo - Much more of a defense minded full back so full back on attack will suit.
Clodoaldo - The ball winning mid so pretty obvious what to choose and defend for me as it will provide more defense.
Gerson - The deep lying playmaker and support function a must.
Rivellino - This was a hard one for me but I've gone with a inside advanded playmaker with the PI to move into channels to hopefully get some width into his play.
Pele - Best shadow striker of all time
Tostao - Think false nine works best in the match engine
Jaizinho - Inside forward and set to attack of cause.
Team instructions
At the moment I have the following,
Retain Possession, Low tempo, Be more expressive and roam from position. I would love some feedback or advice on if you agree or disagree with this.
Mentality
I have gone with control however I know attacking is probably the more obvious choice however I think in FM control works better for myself.
Team Shape
Very fluid of course. Was there a more fluid team in the history of football? I don't think so.
So putting that into the game and using the current brazil squad gives the following
So now it is time to test and tweak and hopefully get some good results and play nice flowing old school brazilian football
