eddiesenior Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I'm Everton, I play a very attacking formation, even though we finish 7th-10th we're always top 3 scorers in the league. This season we were doing particularly well, got to January and now my team just cannot score. I haven't changed a thing, I just can't figure out what it is that's stopping them! Any ideas would be appreciated! I play a 442 diamond or a 4-1-2-2-1 Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea football club Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Need more attacking roles maybe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiesenior Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 I dunno, the 442 diamond was working very well before, and the other formation has 4 attacking midfielders and a striker. Do you think playing more defensive/ball winning midfielders would help?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea football club Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 How many goals are you letting in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiesenior Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 We've let in 35 in 25 games which is about the same as all the other seasons I've played and pretty average for the mid-table clubs i'm around. I'm about 8th in the list of 'conceded' that they have. I have noticed that our possession in games lately has dropped from about 50% a game to 45% a game.

Chelsea football club Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Then put more midfielders defensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiesenior Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 Just played chelsea, and well, we DID SCORE. Still lost convincingly though. It's so annoying seeing the opposition get a chance and fire it straight into the corner of the net. When all my players do is kick it to the goalkeeper. Rage. Chelsea had one more shot on target than me (9-8) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea football club Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Go chelsea, but try being a bit more defensive and using counter attacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
