I too see use it as a playmaker role as I never really seeing it arriving late in the box all i see him do is step in and spray passes out wide

Lol had no idea

As sides his ppms (which I'm not sure of) I think he has good attributes for the role. I think it'll help that he is also a natural controlling playmaker (which I think is one of the libero's duties in-game?)

Doesn't he have playmaker traits

ever thought of converting sergio busquets to a Libero?

hey there, currently having trouble with installing the kits. I have successfully created them but they don't appear in game. ps: i have reloaded skin, cleared cache and unticked caching.

Thanks, point noted

Again, correct me if I'm wrong. P.S: If the Libero isn't a dictaor role, what would you sat it is? I'd go with a hybrid form of a deep lying playmaker

According to the article I read, the season stats weren't uploaded but from match analysis he was involved well enough in the team's general play. From screenshots i saw, he acted as i imagine a libero to act; as a dictator in the center of the pitch and a provider of the "second assist' (or as I call it, the pre-assist).

Great tactics, great analysis, although I have seen quite a few people enjoy success with the libero whilst fielding players in the DMC strata. Once saw one with 3 DMs and it had a very nice buildup structure.

Exactly how it should be, hell rarely get involved in goals and assists, but he'll be the player with the highest value of xA (pre assist). Mario mandzukic was a prime example of a player that thrived I'm this role, he was the main key/ unsung hero in Jive's succesful 16/17 season.

Oof, yes please!!!

Also set the striker on support duty so he can drop deep and let the CM(a) overlap him.

You would need a good balance of both support and attack duties. Just think of of this way, let an attack player have a support player at both sides of him and let support players have attack options at both sides of them. In your case, I'll say, having an attacking fullback behind a WM(s) and keeping the CM(a). Or of you don't want to do away with the RPM, just set the striker and wingers to attack duties.

Well the OP says he wants to build around james Rodriguez I think the first step is to make the player roles and duties on his side work by perfectly balancing his side of play. The advanced playmaker will come in and at times float into that no.10 slot so you will definitely need a sort of wingback (duty depends on the risk you're willing to take). This doesn't away mean he will get caught on the counter attack tho. He can use the central midfielder on advanced play maker's side to balance the play when the team is trying to attack the box (perhaps a CM support, or DLP support?). From there you can build the rest of the team around that idea.
