Possession

[Nauris Polis]

Hi!
I dont1 understand why do I allways have possession 20% while my oponent has 80% .. and it`s like that every game .. all my players are well rested with high morale and everyone is in his own place ..


what is wrong ?

From the http://wiki.topeleven.com/Main_Page:


"Some formations are not allowed in Top Eleven and may lead to 20% ball possession, which in turn reduces the chance of victory.

Throughout the whole match you must have:

a goalkeeper (blue)
at least three defenders (green) (DL/DC/DR)
at least one striker (red)
at least one player on both flanks.
at least four players in the opponents half (ML/MC/MR or AML/AMC/AMR or ST)
at least three players in the midfield section (AML/AMC/AMR and/or ML/MC/MR and/or DML/DMC/DMR)

One player on each flank is enough, but three players on the same flank will also lead to 20% possession. "

You need three Defenders

[Buffs Mad]

You have what's known as an illegal formation
which gets penalised by capping possession at 20%.

[spornybol]

you only have 2 DC and no DL or DR, you need one more DC so min 3 defender`s DRM/DLM/DCM count as midfield not defence

thanks Cat Harrison !! now everything is ok !! my bad

This isnt an illegal formation guys... And by the way game is getting each day worst... Unfair situations that for me represent a change in the engine motor by Nordeus.

You have no wide players. That's been an illegal formation in the game for a long time.

Just explain me the question of "wide players"... Why the hell i cant play with the formation that i want? For me thats a big bug on this game, and this does NOT represent the sport neither the time expended playing the game and seeing games for possession... For sure there were modifications in the engine game cause they are beeing reporting lots of bugs and situations that are uncomun and unfairs....

Well even if there wasn't a penalty for playing with no "wide players" - DL/R, DML/R, ML/R, and AML/R - you would be leaving yourself very open to attacks down the flanks, so it's not a good formation to play anyway - it is very easy for your opponents to exploit to their best advantage.

The oponent doesn't have wingers as well, only a ml and mr,less dangerous than aml or amr. put ur 3 defender wide then u cover any winger. Not much change, just defend wide then ok
