Weather

Hello all,

It be interesting to know whether people change their tactics because of the weather.

My team seem to lose in poor weather conditions. I want to change to more shorter game play passing, when its drizzling or should it be long ball?

Drizzle windy, rain, dry,

let me know what you guys do

thanks again

Rain hurts short passing attacks..go with the long ball.

Great stuff, I will try this, for some reason i was using shorter passing?

Gale? Very windy? - I pass to feet.

There's a thread in the Tactics and Training Forum which has something about this. Do you think that could help you?

You should link him anyway.

Should be common sense. Windy - cut out crosses, keep the ball on the ground.

Drizzle makes the surface more zippy - short passing can work well.

Heavy rain will bog the ball down - long ball, keep it in the air.

Very hot or cold will sap players' stamina, and low determination players may not fancy it.
