DivineOne Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 There is no better. It all depends on your team and the opposition team. Plus, why choose? My tactic uses both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo51 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 As per tt&f i use loose zonal marking for attack roles, with high closing down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchaldinho Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Zonal marking all of the way! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crouchaldinho Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Check this link for diagrams and explanations on man and zonal marking: link (see bottom of the page). Most teams in modern football use zonal marking. I personally use zonal marking for my whole team. Regards, C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-evo Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Zonal marking. Just don't think man marking works effectively in any other positions than DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Zonal marking. Just don't think man marking works effectively in any other positions than DM. Pretty much this. The other time is if you want a big centre back to mark a big striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sean Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 It is based far more on your players' ability level and the type of training you offer than anything else. I prefer a zone defense because it is easier for a new player to learn, easier to reset the team to their original zones and is less impacted by another team's superstar. Like in any sport, zones get beat along the seams. If your players don't overlap, the zone defense probably won't be a good fit... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollieshrews Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 The most successful teams have the defence mark to zones, but not on corners. Thats my view anyway,,, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Depends on the players. If my DCs are faster and generally better than the oppo forwards I use man marking. If the forwards are quicker I drop deeper and use zonal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
uistbhoy Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 zonal about 95% of the time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlo116 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 IRL i'm not a fan of zonal defence as some teams are very good at moving loosely and crowding areas of the field which can severely disadvantage zonal defence, however in fm i think a mixture is best and zonal can prove to be very effective.

alimac Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Depends on your defenders attributes, your opponents attributes and your personal preference. Often I will have them all on tight zonal marking meaning they will wait until the opposition is in their zone then stay on him until he moves elsewhere (at least that's what they should do!) But if your defenders positioning and anticipation are poor it might be better to mark the man instead. Like I say you have to look at what suits your players best and also look at your coaches preferences and see what they are teaching your players.

grep Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I think that a team performs better if it is kept on playing the same tactic along the year. If you keep on switching between them I think it performs worst. BTW do the third person of " perform " need an " s " at the end ? thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DivineOne Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I think that a team performs better if it is kept on playing the same tactic along the year. If you keep on switching between them I think it performs worst. Obviously you can't constantly change formation or something. But small tactical changes are needed for every match. And that doesn't change performance at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harper Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I use Zonal on my Strikers, Defensive Middies, Attacking Wingers and Midfielders CBs and F/WB do Man, might put one midfield on man marking if I am playing with 3 central midfielders.

I find a FB on man marking quite dangerous. As for CB's, I always put 1 CB on man marking and high closing down, and the other on zonal marking and low closing down. Put my DM's always on man marking. Works quite well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
