Herter Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I must admit I cant see any difference no matter what it is set to so I completely ignore it now.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryknow Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I changed it a lot in the first few seasons, but now that I have my own team and tactics working well it's left on team blend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightymanager Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I must admit I cant see any difference no matter what it is set to so I completely ignore it now.. It's a proof that it needs to be improved a lot in order to be usefull. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdanio Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I find that it does work, however I'm not sure how influencial it is. For example, attacking set pieces seems to make me score more set pieces. 1 every game or 2 rather than 1 every 3 games or so. Defensive positioning is a must if you have a good side but are playing a better side. Usually I leave it on 1 thing all season, depending on where my team needs help.

CElliott Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 I frequently find that Attacking Movement helps my strikers and midfield keep possession and finish. Defensive Position can help sometimes, but I'm not sure I'd know when to use Attacking / Defending Set Pieces? If I think I can win a game I'll go for Attacking Movement, if I dont think I can win I'll go for Defensive Position and hope for a draw. I wish the AssMan would remind me I'd forgotten to change this before the match though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuchiki Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 This happens to me alot aswell and the majority of matches I forget to prepare for I end up dropping points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J8mb0 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Was conceding from set pieces every game so switched to defending set pieces. Didn't make a blind bit of difference really. I'm confused as to what it is supposed to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugo_rune Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I have mine on defensive movement for 90% of the games. It works pretty well for me Sometimes I switch to attacking movement, against a much weaker side, and also go attacking or control in the strategy. It usually doesn't end well, I don't break them down and get hurt on the counter, even though I'm the overwhelming favourite. That may simply be that my tactical style is a better fit with a defensive or counter-attacking strategy, and defensive movement helps that more. It'd be nice if there was more of an explicit indicator as to what match preparation actually did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigues Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I have to agree there's little information on match preparation, and the articles I've read about it are not consistent. I just leave it on team blend for most season as well, don't really see much influence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzbuzz1234 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I find it fairly influential in my game. I usually can't score unless it's been on Attack for a good few days, and I see a noticeable difference against a strong team when I stick it on Defensive Positioning. I almost think at times it is *too* important when it comes to your performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
