Possession

[Horzelenberg]

Do you have any data re losing possession if playing 2xDCMs?

I have played 2xDCMS several times this season, have not lost & possession is always in my favour. This morning I played 4-2(DCMs)-3-1 against team running 6th [opponent played 4-1(MC)-3(ACMs)-2], possession was 65-35% in my favour. In saying that my team was far superior in skill so that may have been a contributing factor.

Interesting debate, I've never considered certain positions on the field would affect possession. I always thought it was strength of team, formation & orders that determined possession %s.

Often I think possession is 1. But the form seems to be more important. Because when I count all the reviews, The team with the best reviews on average, WINS. When reviews on everage it's equal, the match ends equal

IMO it doesn't matter, I just play with 6 midfielders every match.

I'll always remember 'justdome' saying on the old forum that DM's gain possession % but the way the game engine seems to run now is probably totally different to two years ago..
I only play one formation with no DM or DM's, in which case it an a attacking 3-4-1-2 with my best quality players so I can;t compare against my normal DM formations.

wondering if tactics really matter in this game or its all random from a point, I mean in difference of team strength.
