This strikerless FM26 tactic averaged an incredible 4.9 goals per game in testing and went on to secure 5 trophies in a single season, proving just how dangerous this setup can be when executed correctly.

If you’re looking for one of the most creative and high-scoring tactics in FM26, this system shows how removing a traditional striker can unlock total offensive dominance.
