yeboah83 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 hmm, have started using complete forward, support and he has improved. Not so sure about target man attack, have you tried it with him before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabio MVP Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Nope, but given that Zamora is in support duty then Dembele should have attacking duty. i don't see him as a Poacher and he not that good for Advanced Forward. So I'd limit to him to target Man (Attack) so that he could b just concentrated on scoring goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, is Xavi deep lying playmaker or advanced or box to box? Maybe Xavi DLP support, Pedro and Villa AMR and AML inside forward atk, and Messi either AMC trequartista or ST complete forward support, he just uses more skill to hold up ball instead of physical presence. Also Iniesta is probably AdvP atk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD nawrat Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hey guys, bit of a tough one here to crack. I'll give some info on what I need help with. I'm Aston Villa and have made a few signings. In particular, I've revamped the centre of midfield. I have 3 systems - 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-2-4 - all with 2 MCs, which are both usually Moussa Sissoko and Lars Bender, two players who are new signings to the club. I've finally managed to get Sissoko playing well (Deep-Lying Playmaker Support). However, Lars Bender isn't functioning at all as a Box-to-Box or Ball Winning Support Midfielder. His average rating after 10 league starts is 6.82, which is simply not good enough. Name: Lars Bender Position: Midfield Centre Role: ? Duty: ? Other Instructions: ? Team: Aston Villa Team's Formation: I have a few: 4-2-4, with MC-MC, RW-LW, ST-ST; 4-2-3-1, with MC-MC, RW-AMC-LW, ST; 4-3-3, with DM, MC-MC, RW-LW, ST LW is Downing, RW is Young, AMC is Hazard, DM is Makoun II, STs are Agbonlahor/Bent Anything that might get Bender playing would be greatly appreciated.

CFC1983 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Anyone having trouble getting the best out of Alexis Sanchez? i see alot of people raving about him on the game but i always buy him and although he chips in with a few goals but nothing near the amount that people say he scores for them. I have used him as a winger/attack and an inside forward/attack on both flanks, i've also made him concentrate on finishing and composure, ive tried everything from my team instructions from narrow to wide but still no joy. While i'm here has anyone got any tips on how to get wide men to score more goals on a whole, i also have the same problem with Eden Hazard on the other flank too, they always seem to isolate the main striker who then goes on a run as a result of the wide men being too wide, the wingers never seem to be in the right areas to score goals.

helemaalnicks Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Which position would be best for this kid i agreed to sign you think? His physical stats are too poor for a winger, he won't be fast enough... however... his poor mental stats really make him unsuitable for any centre midfield position. WBL/ML/AML are probably the best positions for him, with his technical stats you can use him for defensive winger, winger, or inside forward role. for an AMC or striker position, he is simply too dumb (imo) so I'd stick with the positions he already has.

SRL88 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 His physical stats are dreadful. Defensive winger, but you seriously need to stick him on a physical training schedule to increase those stats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyp Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I think it's maybe too soon to judge that kid. At 16, his mental/physical stats are always going to be low. With the right training schedule, he should improve enough physically to grow into his tremendous technical attributes. The mental stats grow with age so there shouldn't be a worry there - his good determination should see to that. With the technical attributes he starts with, the choice is yours. I would keep him as a LB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd start by saying I don't really like the hazard/sanchez combination. They're quite similar, fast, beat man type players. That said, it should still be able to work. I'd put sanchez AMR as a winger, and hazard as an inside forward, both attacking and, most importantly, with a free roam setting. Then it'd depend on what team you're managing, what the rest of the tactic would look like, but with 2 free roles on the flank, I'd probably want a supporting playmaker in the centre and a lowish flair, prolific poacher/target striker as a finisher. I don't know why you want your AMR/AML to score much. I got ronaldo to score 50 from AMR, but a lot of those goals were scored because he was the target man, and not roaming. Using sanchez or hazard as a non roaming player seems like a waste to me though, especially sanchez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

helemaalnicks Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Babacar and CavaniSpurs 442 Seems like an unlikely couple to work well together. That said, I'd use babacar as support target and cavani in some free role position (despite the fact that there are far better options for such a slot) like complete forward or advanced forward. Could also be used both as targets, but you'd need a very creative midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Forward? Get him to play on the shoulder of the back four & play balls into him. Take his 'Run with ball > Often' down to 'Run with Ball > Sometimes' - that should get him to layy the ball off quickly & go for a second ball ahead of him.
