Hi Guys and Gals,
there is a problem with defensive free kicks from deep.
In all 4 Lists there is no "edge of area" duty, it is hidden behind "stay forward:form wall if needed:if not needed:edge of area", that is way to obscure for the user to find it. Also it has a conditional loop in it, and will never be clear if a player will actually go for a edge of area duty.
So in the default settings, there is no thought after 2nd balls, if there is a scramble, players with mark player duty will just clumb up and sometime even just mark 1 opp player and leave all others free, even if they attack the box and then put an easy pass into it, onto the feet of an unmarked player to tap in.
Steps to reproduce: tactics->setpieces , assuming, that you have the right responsibilities, and also answered the "initial setpiece thing" you then go to: freekicks deep:defending, and you will able to look through the possible duties or tasks, which for most kinds of setpieces will include an edge of area duty, but not on this one. This is sclearly an oversight, and should be added ot the game.
Thank you and happy Christmas
