Is everyone doing well down the flanks it just me having problems with my team, I have good players to play wide formations but lately its not working att all.
Mine are playing well with 4-2-2-2.
I tend to focus mixed flanks though. No point putting focus in flanks unless you have to (DMC blocking the centre)
What formation are you using?
I'm fine with down flanks..my formation is 3w-1-2-2-2..my 2 wingers even score 2/3 of total goals in all competitionQuote:

I'm using 4-2-2-2 with no arrows.
Normal mentality
Mixed focus
Short passing
No counter
Press high
Hard tackling
Zonal marking
No offside
If losing change to attacking, mixed or long, down flanks, play offside, red arrows on full backs
Try that out and if your wingers aren't playing well then it is your players (or blame me) :P
Lastly, if you see one winger playing noticeably better than your other midfielders, focus down his flank for a bit, see how he plays with more possession.
I used it today and won 3-0 easily.
Good luck.
Thanks it must be just my players, not performing as it should.Quote:

My AML is doing great. 24 goals out of 25 matches. On the other hand, my AMR, which has been great up until this season, is hardly to be seen. 4-5-1 V, which was my standard formation last season, isn't working for me this season at all. I'm getting some nice statistics (and sometimes even results) with 4-3-2W-1 though, so I'll stick to that for a while.
Here is proof in my method. Some people hide their tactics through insecurity or they think it's a big secret but truth is we all know just as much as the next guy how this game works. You just need a footballing brain, that's it.

He lined up with 4-1-2-1-2 narrow so all I did was switch my LB to CB centre and my RB to CB right and my CB to DMC as they play multi positions. I lined up with 3-5-2v Now for orders, all I changed was zonal to man to man as tactics are mirrored and down both flanks so I don't waste possession down the middle.
You can see I scored 2 goals with Escobar, my El Niño in the first half, with a rating of 9 I focused down his flank and he grabbed a hat trick.
How did you get on, FVSO?
I won the cup match against 4-51 v 3-0 I used a mixed formation 4-1-2-1-2 but use my star mr/ amp as mr so was kind narrow diamond and worked very well, we dominated the match, on the league I won 6-1 with wide diamond and second half I change to the previous formation can't take much of notice as the team was bottom of the league, tomorrow I gonna use 4-5-1 v again to see if the things back to normal, I do use 3-5-2 v against any narrow formation and it hasn't fail me since last season but the only thing I always do is attack to work better.Quote:

Well done :D if you get into any hassle give me a pm
I use passing down the flanks when my opponent has only 2 wingers (both defenders and mildfield wingers).

Would you play down flanks against 3n-3w-3-1?Quote:

Against these I would use passing through flanks:
3DC-3DMW-3MC-ST
3DC-3MW-3AMC-ST
3DC-3DMC-3AMW-ST
3DC-3DMC-3AMC-ST
3DC-3MC-3AMW-ST
3DC-3MC-3AMC-ST
Ah I see. So if you played 4-3n-2w-1 you would use down flanks. So 4 against 2, right?Quote:

Yes, but If opponent has DML and DMR, then I'd rather use ML/R instead of AML/RQuote:

Normal mentality
Short passing
Down flanks
High press
Normal/hard tackling
Man to man against the diamond
No counter
No offside
+ Offside trap ON, IF opponent uses 3ST formationQuote:

From my CH.L. game, this morning (no one watching the game except me).
From the formation of my oppo seems that playing with 1AMC + 2ST could give me some advantage (against only one DC) but with the late STs "disease", I wouldn't use 3 mid. attackers playing billiard and making oppo DC a hero :p
* orders : defense/counters/flanks/low pressure/long pass/zonal marking

91% pass accuracy with long passing + Counter? Perfect counter formation!
Nice win, I wasn't able to watch your match this week I work in some crazy shifts, I will play down the flanks as normal as you said the wingers count a lot for some time this season my left wingers weren't play well so I get some bad results, 3 St I think it's a bad idea now that the strikers don't score much.Quote:

I set my ST as AMR (I used him in another game and seems that it fits in that position).
3 goals, 1 missing penalty and 4 central defenders of oppo were playing poker :o
This team had a draw with the 3rd of my league yesterday. Today I 'm 1st with 5 points dif.
nice :D
