I just leave it on most of the time with 4-5-1 unless opponent has really fast attacking line, offside trap would work better if it was zonal marking indeed.
in the previouse post i was talking abou 4-3-3 Attacking mentality formation, it's a bit different when it comes to Defending tactics as i would use Offside ON with any kind of defensive formation.
-It makes little to no difference tho.. as i've seen offside for opponent team even when my offside trap is off. it's just a little booster in defensive tactics.
Today I used the defensive 451V formation like what you say.It worked good and I got 4-1 win in the cup match.But there was some funny things happened during the match.The assistant manager told me that my defenders are hesitant about offside trap disposing when the half-time come,and indeed my opponent have a goal in the first half. But my players are stronger than them,so I decided to leave my assistant alone,and finally I got my 4th goal while the opponent still stay 1 goal,ended the match.We always know what assistant manager say just is bull****,but I am still a little bit worry about that kind of situation.So,should I turn off offside trap when the assistant manager say something like that?Look forward to your favourable reply.
