Playmaker and other Special Abilities (with Screenshots)

Might not be as bad as you think. I'm playing 4411 mixed or flank attacking most games and have only used dr/dmr (with PM) and dl/dml in the mr and ml positions this season, and much of last. They both score, assist, have good form, win MoM. My out of position "ml" is on the top rated list for league. I also have a DC/dmc I added PM to, thinking I'd try him as MC, but he has been playing well in natural positions.

In any case, 2 yellow positioned players won't cost you the win, especially if they are a bit overpowered for the match.

Thanks! I think like Moi maybe or Jeeves said that the penalty really isn't that big for being out of position (non-red triangle).

Can it be a possession penalty? But OTOH, a red triangle really seems lost most of the time...

I've had more matches holding 60-70 percent possession than 70-80 this season, but that could be many factors.
I do play attack arrows on either or both out of position midfield players, no problems it seems,a few yellows for MR. The only time I played my very attacking balanced AMC as MC with attack arrow he got 2 yellows in one match, very, very rarely picks up fouls in AMC position.

i have a curious observation of training a Pm, since i trained a CM with PM ability it's rating went below than previous games but it suddenly started scoring more and it's scoring in recent matches more than my previous scorers in the team...and my reading comparision to another CM with a PK specialist shows me a opposite curve wit the PM trained player. another fact i would like to consider here is the player i trained with PM is a either foot player & the costlier PK specialist is a right footed player...is there any idea why the change in performances...??
