Tactical Vision is a new feature in EA FC 24‘s Career Mode that allows players to set a playstyle for their teams. As they are not easy to access, here’s a full explanation of each, as well as our top recommendations for maximizing your squad’s potential.
In EA FC 24’s Career Mode, managers can now choose a playstyle for their teams prior to commencing their journey. This brings a new dimension to team management and skill development as it changes the squad’s custom tactics and affects how the matches and players develop.
If you’d like to play like Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, you may choose Gegenpressing as your style, while Pep Guardiola or Xavi would go for Tika Taka. Depending on the opposition, Jose Mourinho may choose Park the Bus some weeks and then Counter Attack.
So, let’s look at the best Tactical Visions you can pick when starting up your new save in EA’s game.
Best Tactical Visions in EA FC 24 Career Mode
After extensively testing all the different Tactical Visions options, we’ve picked Tiki Taka and Gegenpressing as the most effective for EA FC’s single-player gameplay.
Tiki Taka
This setting is built around possession football, dominating games, and short passing, meaning players are often very close together in groups.
The one-two interplay in EA FC 24 is extremely effective, and you can move fast with the ball to get in behind with accurate short (usually one-touch) passes.
As opponents will be dragged out of their positions chasing the ball, their stamina will be depleted quickly, allowing you many chances to get through the gaps left.
If you have the right players to execute this plan – with high short passing stats and pace – it is an excellent Tactical Vision to put into practice.

Gegenpressing
This setting is all about high pressing and not giving opponents a chance to breathe. Your primary focus will be to snatch back the ball in the opponent’s third and score a goal quickly.
In previous games, this tactic was considered quite risky – mostly in Ultimate Team – since, if not executed properly, it could leave you in a vulnerable position against a counterattack. However, winning the ball back in the final third and defending from the front really suits EA FC 24’s Career Mode gameplay.
For this Tactival Vision to work, your players must have high stamina, so it might be a good idea to check the Training Plan.
All Tactical Visions in EA FC 24 Career Mode
Each Tactical Vision will impact your team’s custom tactics and playstyle, changing their width, depth, build-play, and other attributes.
Every time you take over a team in Manager Career Mode, you can choose between these 7 Tactical Visions:
- Standard: Mixes attacking and defensive play, adjusting to the flow of the match as it develops. A versatile option for any team and situation.
- Tiki Taka: Uses short and accurate passes as well as player rotations to force spaces in the opposition’s defense. When an opening is created, an attacker can use the chance to score a goal.
- Wing Play: Focuses on moving the ball through the sidelines, forcing players to make wide runs and deliver crosses directly into the box. Top-notch Wingers are required.
- Gegenpressing: Pressures the opponent in their final third to make them lose possession. With the ball back and near the goal area, the team can quickly counterattack.
- Park the Bus: A compact defensive tactic that encourages players to defend deep in their own half, minimizing spaces for the opposition to exploit.
- Counter Attack: Makes the team absorb the pressure and then quickly counterattack as soon as the opponents lose possession of the ball using the spaces left by them.
- Kick and Rush: Uses long balls to bypass the midfield and get between the opponent’s defense while off guard. It requires physical strength and a solid pace.
You can add different members of the coaching staff to your backroom setup, too, which will improve the development of the chosen Tactical Vision. These coaches can be picked for Attack, Midfield, Defense, and Goalkeeping.
Each department will also be graded from Novice to Expert, so you’ll know exactly where to strengthen next time your wage budget increases.
