Do we have a comprehensive guide on tutoring here somewhere? I have tons of questions...

What exactly does this mean? Does it mean that the player will not move forward when a counter attack is on? Where as, if i had the team set to Fluid - 'However, players from each unit are expected to move into the transition phase when the right opportunity arises' means that they will move forward if a counter attack is on? But only in the right opportunity? Which is what?

If I recall correctly the player, even if he's a CD, will bomb forward if the counter attack is triggered and he is in the position on the pitch. Just now I had my CD run like 50 meters up the pitch with my winger when we got the ball back on a corner.

The Guardian jorno Jonathan Wilson with a fantastic piece on José Mourinho today.

This made me think of this thread:

“There is no new generation,” Mourinho went on, criticising the Barçajax purists who seem to regard possession-football as the only true way to play (although not Guardiola, a distinction Mourinho tends to ignore). “If you don’t play counter-attack then it’s because you are stupid. Because counter-attack is a fantastic item of football. It’s an ammunition that you have and when you find your opponent unbalanced."

Well considering you seem to have a running theme with your posts and you keep getting the same issues then yes it is. So you have two choices now. You can either;

A - Post constructively and add all the required info so someone can help you.

B - Go and moan elsewhere about your failings on the game.

Pick one because if you keep posting nonsense in here you'll be gone for a week or longer. So do you actually want help or going to act the village idiot?

You seem nice.

No it's not a pipedream. It's just something you will have done wrong. Can't help though if you just post meaningless screenshots with no context, they're pointless.

Yes, of course, I must have done something.

Must poast this before I get the boot:

I love the notion of counterattacking football on FM, but it remains a ghost. The ideas and intent is very well explained here by the OP, but in FM terms it's just a pipe dream.
