Well since I have spent lots of skill points in SA for some of my players, I hope it was worth it. Basicaly the way I see it you need a couple of aerial defenders, 1-2 defensive wall, 1 playmaker, 1 one-on-one stopper GK and another one for penalties, 1 shadow striker (my AML is scoring about the same with my striker and since I favorite 4-5-1V, I love the idea of an extra striker.) Also a couple of corner specialists (1 in team, 1 in reserves.) And finnaly a couple of free-kick specialists, one-on-one attacker for the strikers and this is it. I use my young players 18-25max to learn the SA so I get to keep them for as long as possible. On another matter witch is the extra position of a player, I rarely find myself in need to train a player for it BUT! My second striker (20yo, one-on-one scorer) is training for the AML possition as well atm. This will help my team to change from 4-4-2 flat to 4-5-1V. I use these 2 formations due to the fact that 4-4-2 flat is an ez mode formation to have while you are not online at the moment that the match is played and secondly if you are online and watching you can let your team score 1-2 goals and change it easily to 4-5-1V virtualy without any subs (although usualy this is a nice time to bring fresh players into the match, change your tackling to easy so you avoid cards, change presure to own half and basicaly have the whole team hug your goalkeeper ) I have in my mind to write a guide on this technique but first I need to know if SA works and how. Why there is none here that can answer this simple question? Are SA useful or they just have them there for us to spend more money?? Excuse my grammar but its 9:30 in the morning and I hopefuly after this post will get some sleep.. /cheers #La Ku
