All Strikers have 3 positions, as do all central players DC, DMC, MC, AMC and there is logic behind them preferring and performing better in either of the 3 positions available to them.
I have a striker who performs far better (and scores more goals) when he plays on the right of the 3 striker positions, and another who is the same in the central position (unfortunately neither seem to like playing in the left position)
The assumption is that within the GE they have coded Left & Right foot preference?
