mattg787 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Hi I play short quick tempo fooball , all the time , when I play at home it works really well , and none of my players just go up and boot it . But when I play away , my players just hoof it up there most of the time ?? Why is this ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomis07 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Tougher game away from home, but your players should still be following your instructions. Perhaps they aren't able to follow your instructions when away from home because they get elss time on the ball etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 slow down the tempo a bit when playing away. works in real life as well (outside of football, that is ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riza Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Don't forget to use a bit more time wasting when away as it gives your players a bit more time to dwell on the ball instead of just kicking it up the pitch to the other end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattg787 Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 I thought time wasting only has an effect at the end of the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riza Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Not as far as the results of my tinkering with tactics have produced. I remember reading it on CMFrenzy as well. It allows more time for your players to keep the ball and not just kick it to the other side of the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAFCrhys_keanoFTM Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Check your creative freedom, if it is high then your players may not follow your instructions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattg787 Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 I do this with Newcaslte , but have excellent players in the middle of the park eg creativity and first touch and passing. But Away I just slow the tempo down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
