HUNT3R Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 5 hours ago, BrightLad5 said: Ideal 3 man central midfield combo when using an attacking 5-3-2 with wing backs and a target man? I'd say go through Pairs and Combinations (the guide is in the pinned threads) and check what is going to work for you. There isn't a straightforward answer to this. It's going to depend on how you line up the 3 and what your players are capable of (their attributes) for you to best decide who to play and in what role/duty. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaplex Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I couldn't find an answer to this but, when you go on vacation for let's say for 2 weeks ingame, does your ass man apply opposite instructions for games even if you have them set to do yourself in the settings?

dannyfc Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 How dynamic are physical attributes for youth players? If I have a 17 yo CB with only 5 in strength, with the right personality and heavy training programme how much can I realistically increase this? Maybe one for FM 23 but I'd like to see Stamina be a lot more variable. Makes sense for Natural Fitness to be fixed, but if I player is out the game for a year it would make sense to see Stamina significantly reduce and require many months to build back up again. Similarly when training for a pressing system, the frequency of endurance schedules should determine bigger swings to shape the squad. Thinking about how Bielsa transformed Leeds in his first year, player selection is definitely key but much of their success came from what happened on the training ground. At the moment all it takes is a couple months of games to boost tactical familiarity. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostofPaulLambert Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) Quick question. What role is best for a wide player who drifts from the flank into the center / half spaces and plays through balls? I'm thinking Buendia at Norwich or I guess Juan Mata at Chelsea / Utd as examples.

I'll try AP. I'm not sure I want a playmaker as such but I found the IWs crossed a bit too much..but that's maybe coz I don't have him cutting in on stronger foot. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavyDepuydt1 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) I'm seeing something and wanted to check if my thinking is correct to why this happens. I'm playing an almost default Vertical Tiki Taka 433 DM, with some roles adjusted and tempo to normal. AF (A) IF(s) IW(s) Mez(a) BBM(s) DLP(d) WB(s) BPD(d) DC(d) WB(a) With Work the Ball in the Box on my striker doesn't score a lot (The IF, IW and Mez do), with Work The Ball in the box off my striker is by far the main goal threat. Is this because with WBIB on my team is slower in attack, much more people are around/in the box, and there's a big chance that other players than my striker are getting the goal scoring opportunities?

I'd say so yes, instead of crossing into the box to him, your team will get into the final third & look to probe a bit more & things are opening up for the "drifting" roles Hard to say for sure though, best way of telling is reviewing the goals you're scoring, look at the goals your AF scored & how they were supplied etc 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have two attack duties in one vertical column of the pitch then you will be less likely to have them getting in each other's way when attacks progress, but then you might be leaving a gap in the pitch in that area.

If I wanted to see my team play the ball into the channels either side of two strikers more regularly, what TI would I use? Pass into space? Direct passing? Or both? Well it also depends a lot on the other team to actually leave that channels unprotected. So in other words if there is no space for whatever reason, it cant be exploited. In terms of Instructions, i would look for strikers that stretch the play and move into channels. Use pass into space to specifically force your players to make passes into space instead of into the feed. Increase your overall passing directness, to allow your players more frequently risky forward passes. If you dont want your team to boot the ball out of the defence, use play out of defense. You also need to adjust your tempo, to catch those moments where the others team defense is unorganized. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
