Is 6* ML better or 7.5* AML to play in ML position?

[redboxinghorse]

Hi all,
I have an important match tomorrow at 16:36 UK time.
My MVP is a 7.5* AML. However to counter the opponents formation I will need to use an ML who is 6*.
So my question is which is better?
The 7.5* AML playing off role, or tue 6* ML playing in his role?
In other words what is the percentage loss when you play with a player who is not in his role (orange warning sign, not red)?
Thank you for clarifying.

Also if you have any tips to win the match they are most welcome:
It’s the cup semifinal and the opponent is stronger by 10%, playing 4W-2-1-3W
His star player is his AMC, who I am marking with my superior DMC man to man. I hope this will slow his team down considerably.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, much appreciated.

How about to try AML in his role...

Thanks for the suggestion steppe wolf.
Other than that do you know what is % decrease in skills for players playing outside of their role? Also for future reference

No one knows... I assume the best way is to sum important skills for that position and divide it with number of important skills... I played with 3-5 players out of position (yellow triangle) and managed to win several games in row...

Thank you for sharing steppenwolf.
I won first game (away game) 4-3.
Other manager was not there at the beginning if the match and I managed to score 4-0.
When he joined he caught up to 4-3.
I was slow to make adjustments and go hard defensive to protect the 4-0 advantage. I may have gotten greedy. 😉
