ftg87 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I play a 4-4-2 most of the time and I have set both my wingers as playmakers and set passing focus to down both flanks, this seems to work for me, I never have a problem with full backs pushing forward though, I just set their forward runs up and off they go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 and you have your tactical team setting to wide? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Yeah, I always like my wingers to be off down the wing at every opportunity, so any box or slider that looks like it may do that is selected Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 what about the pitch sizes? i try and play wide on the congested pitches tryign to create more space in the middle but i seem to get over run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 If I know I am playing on a small pitch, then I will actually change my tactic altogether, I know it isn't recommended by all the tactics boffins but it seems to work for me, what I will tend to do is spread my midfield out, put a DMC and a AMC in place of the 2 MCs and set the DMCs runs towards the centre circle, could be complete rubbish but it works for me, seems to make it easier cuz the DMC can sit back in space and take time to play it to the wingers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne\'o Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 yeh i have tried that too. i always seem to get over run what ever i do. these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Know how that feels mate, took me a long time to pick myself up from it, mostly just little tweaks here and there until I managed to find a system that worked for me, the only other thing I can suggest, without having your game loaded in front of me for me to tinker with, is to run it by the tactics bods in the tactics forum, they will probs be much more useful than my drivel mate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
