### ***FEATURE DESCRIPTION***

 

In the **Tactics** section, you can efficiently manage your team from a tactical standpoint.

 

First, go to Settings - Teams - General and define the number of players you want to have in the pitch and on the bench for the selected team.

**Preparation Section**

In this area, you will find all the matches that have been created in the **Planning** module. If your system is integrated with Wyscout via API, the matches will be automatically imported.

For each game, you can:

- Set your **starting lineup** based on your tactical approach, both offensively and defensively.
- Adjust player positions by selecting and dragging their names.
- View each player’s **readiness and health status**, which is based on data from the **medical and performance departments**. If no status indicators are displayed, it means that these details have not been updated.

**Analysis Section**

In this section, you can analyze performance data imported from third-party providers like Wyscout (via API) or CSV files.

First of all, remember to define your Active **Team tactical metrics** and **Individual tactical metrics** moving to Settings - Teams- Metrics. This will allow you to display the data you need during your analysis. Remember to follow the guidelines provided in this article (https://support.iterpro.com/en/guide/why-i-cant-save-my-active-metrics-section-in-settings).

Here, you will be able to:

- View the **active metrics** configured for your profile, including thresholds (if set).
- Compare data from the **last 10 matches**.
- Customize the displayed metrics according to your needs.
- Conduct **team-level** or **individual player** analysis.

This section provides valuable insights to assess performance trends and optimize tactical decisions.

 

**Edit the lineup from Manager - Planning - Game events - Lineup**

1. Go to **Manager** → **Planning**, and click on **Game Events**.
2. Within each game event, you’ll find a section called **"Lineup"**.

Here, you can (once you clicked on EDIT):

- **Select your tactical setup**, choosing formations for both offensive and defensive phases.
- **Toggle the display of player nationalities**, depending on whether or not you want them shown on the lineup screen.
- **Flip the lineup**, switching the team's orientation on the field.
- Make changes to the starting lineup.

Once you've edited and confirmed your lineup:

- The changes will be automatically reflected in the **Tactics** section.
- The updated lineup will also be **synchronized across all mobile apps**, ensuring consistency for players and staff.
