Crushed by an assymetric formation!

Wingers are better marked with fullbacks(DL/R). The wingback (DML/R) does everything but good defending. It's usually employed when you have a 3 DC defence, to give a depth to the wings.

never used DML,R
Better wing backs wit blue arrows

Wingbacks (at least according to Ario) are DML, R. Did you mean fullbacks?

Also, the color arrows are gone (personally, I never saw them anyway, but tried to keep up. Blue meant down or back, right? Red means up or forward, if I am not mistaken.

So are you suggesting defending an AMR with DL with a down arrow?

I guess Nik meant DL/R. Even though the game calls them left/right defender now, in football terminology, those players are together called fullbacks. The game refers DML/R not as left/right defensive midfielders, but left/right wingbacks. A wingback is a dropped down wing midfielder (ML/R). The game refers the AML/R as left/right attacking midfielder. They're also called such in football terminology, but more frequently wingers.
Previously TE referred the defenders as left/centre/right back, now they just call him L/C/R defender.

Coming back to the topic, I've always used red arrows on DL/R, and they too come back to defend, and sometimes get an assist or even a goal, while the striker's busy signing autographs to kids
