Why are you putting them in the FM 2020 folder? Is that what you're playing?

Awesome! Great start

And how's that working out?

Looks interesting, let us know how you get on

Cool, give it a try as see what you can come with Who would you have as the Treq and would you have him wide or upfront? Even in the Diamond setup I posted, you could replace the CF(A) with Treq and have him upfront I'd imagine

@BadAss88I know you've given up on the Trequartista, but give it a try in a narrow formation with two strikers, like a 4-4-2 Diamond Managing in Germany has broken me so I've spent the morning playing around with combos up front, sitting the role behind two strikers, one more static and one a bit more free roaming is a lot of fun to play around with Something like: P(A) CF(A) TREQ(A) Can be pretty lethal & narrow formations themselves are pretty strong. I've not got the hump because Wolfsburg are their 4-4-2 diamond beat me in the EURO cup final or anything

I didn't line up like that but give it try. Last year, I wouldn't have recommended it but it seems a lot more is possible this edition

In regard to what?

Robertooooo Baaaagio!!! Just casually destroying West Bromich Albion Just playing around, I guess he's crazy good for the Championship even at 18

I used an AF(A) and AM(A), see a page back 100% wouldn't have an IF(A) and AF(A) myself

Check the match stats, passing ratios, key passes, shot ratios, mistakes etc Putting him on set pieces will wrack up his key passes and match rating You can rewatch the passes and things he's misplaced in the analysis Inverted Wingers tend to stay wide, then cut in when on the ball, so check his movement off the ball. You could always ask him to sit narrower or roam from position and see how it plays how If Bailey's playing well on the right, switch the roles so Countinho is the IF and Bailey the IW

I really like you set of roles and duties there! Put him on set pieces? You could try a couple of PI's? Look at his match stats and see what's dragging his rating down, then check the analysis and watch some clips back

That's the thing, Roberto Baggio was a one of a kind sort of player, so finding a similar player with similar play traits won't be easy, it might be one you'd have to turn into development type of save. could be a lot of fun ETA: There's a Roberto Baggio wonderkid in the workshop, could be fun to have a play with if you wanted the easy way Footedness is something I pay a lot of attention too, it could be one for you to experiment with because it's down to how you play and what you prefer. I'd probably agree with your ass man, I always prefer a right footed striker on the right Would be great to see your dual SS's in action

As @De Nilesays, think of him as a Support Duty What sort of shape are you thinking? I like it's the only playmaker role without Shoot Less Often locked him. Two points 1) don't expect the World of him 2) use a really good player but you can use it how you like, so if you have a good system with an AP(S), use a Treq instead and start from there

You're probably right, I can't see his profile right now but I guess Coutinho is about creativity and flair so he'd stand out a bit more in a 4-3-3 DM or something similar

Awesome!! I had to upgrade him as the previous one wasn't performing well but he was mid level, so I went with basically, a creative striker here and he's been brilliant. I needed to nail the attributes here else they'd be a passenger

Just doing some preseason tinkering but right now, it's: I was using an AM(A) with PI's than pretty much made it a Shadow Striker, so changed it to try out in the freindlies Just signed this guy to play there Considering anyone close to him, I'm looking at £80 to £100 million but Burnley just got relegated so I got him for £48 million and he can play up front, I think he should be useful

My fill in AMC with goal of the season

My AMC bust his ankle and was out for half the season, he came back with 5 games of the season left and decided to rip it up with 7 goals and 2 assists Here they are! Now Dortmund, Barca and erm, West Ham want him

It's only a cosmetic thing and won't affect anything so just go with the black mailing in your head, he's let the club down

His top attribute is 15 where you'll probably have players with multiple 17 to 20's so his star rating isn't as high as others Obviously your tactic suits him and the other players around him are supporting him well so he's getting the job done, it's basically the complete opposite of when someone says they have a 5 star striker that doesn't score

I guess it would myself, have never done it but it's something you could try Maybe he disgraced himself off-field? Have never seen it myself, did someone else get bumped up to legend status?

They seem rarer than ever I've seen in someone's save, Mbappe had a son I guess son's of players are harder to find

She was South African! Mrs weren't too happy Yes, in your youth intake, he will share your surname and have you listed in their favoured personal
