Why is “speed” a gray skill for DC players?

[Spartan117]

This is the back 4( + 1 sub teen player) i used for like 2 seasons and they are offside machines ( i can do offside like 3 or 4 times every match ), from my experience i can say 100 % Positioning matters for offside( and great GK Communication ) but speed is also useful if the oppo break the offside ( you will note this against defensive formations ), even if they break your trap your defenders will chase his players and recover the ball ( i think you already see that behaviour during simulations )



The first one is a sweeper , the man that guide the defence

You do realize that the offside calls as shown in the live animation is not real right?
If you follow the text commentary you will notice that there is nothing like offside.

What happens when the live animation shows an offside call according to the text commentary is that the opponents defender 'used his strength to claim the ball and stopped the attack' or something similar.

It's still unclear what offside trap does exactly, but however it either improves or inhibits the defensive efforts of your team. So if your defense is doing well with it then continue and vice versa. But don't believe what the live animation says

The purpose of the off side trap is to decrease the oppo chances to score, i've done lot of test about it. The off side during live animation show a interruption of a clear chance of goal. Of course depends on your tactic but if you want to use it you need an attacking or hard attack mentality.
