Arrows.

[Mo Meow Odom]

Can some one explain to me the idea of arrows.
I understand that red will make the player attack more/be used in counter-attacking.
I understand blue arrows will make the player defend more/be used when being counter-attacked.
It thus makes sense you can't put an arrow on a goal keeper.

But I'm confused as too why you can put a red arrow on a striker?
What is that going to do?

Why would you want a striker to play slightly further forward o.O
Unless that striker is just stacked with offensive and no defence (can't dribble) that's the only way that would make any sense.

See the game isn't well programmed, all this things are notccounted to. The proof is Cracicot's, Rastaman's and some other peoples experiments.... Topic closed

Promise not to jump all over me as I share my observations and experiences, based on some experimentation.

I believe the Arrows are a "pseudo-positioning" mechanism, which allows for an "invisible" (to opponent) morph of the visible formation. These are NOT to do with mentality (like attacking or defensive) set through team strategy. Example - what may appear to be a 4-1-4-1 formation is actually a 4-3N-2W-1 starting lineup (if the DMC and ML/MR have Red arrows). A counter formation needs to account for the possible positioning of the opposing team. Kinda' explains some of the "Trolls" as well.

As to Red arrows on Strikers - this basically means you want them to play behind the defensive line. Works well especially with Long passing, mixed results with Mixed passing and pretty much a disaster if using Short Passing- especially if the opponent is playing Offside-Trap. You can see this in the stats with the reduced number of shots.

Last but not least - Im convinced that there is some sort of positioning-coding in every player - relating directly to form / game performance. Even in my current team, I have an MR who plays like God-Incarnate if I dont have Arrows on him - Scoring, Tackling, Passing, Crossing - they guy is IN the Zone every game - with form ratings of 7/8 and a few 9s. The minute I load him with a Red Arrow - he appears to disintegrate into someone who just escaped from a looney-farm. Just plays like a moron.
