Corner tatics?

[Badass_]

I've had incredible success in the game so far so I don't really need this but still, what's the best corner tactics? Like, where do you place your players exactly and which players ?

I don't score many goals from corners and even thought that isn't really affecting my game, I'd like to score more and be even more lethal.

Tell me what's the corner tactic that made you score more goals..

And, if you have one for free kicks, I'd like to know that too.

I get the impression you're after what's considered the "cheat" corner routine?

If so, look and comment here - Corner Routine "Cheat" Discussion **WARNING: SPOILER**

If you wish to discuss that routine, do so there...

...if you wish to discuss other options and possibilities here, that's fine. If this thread heads down the road of discussing the "cheat" routine though, I'll close it or merge it with the other thread.

well loads but this

Two players - Flick

Two players - Keeper

Two players - St Far

Two players - Lurk (one of them is corner taker, the other your best long shooter with good first touch)

Two players - Back

Corners - Penalty Area

some try this

A Simple and Effective Corner Routine- Defending and Attacking (No Bug)

To FM players who are looking for a simple but effective way of setting up a defensive and attacking corner routine without bug's, here it is, after hours of countless trial and errors, the best setup that emerged, thanks' to goals scored and lowest conceded.

DEFENDING CORNERS

Best Header and marker on marking "Tall player"

Next 2 good headers "near" and "far post"

1 player "man" marking

3 players "forward" and 3 players "back" or 2 "forward" and 4 "back".

ATTACKING CORNERS

Start with your best headers from Player 1 to 5

1-Near post flick on

2-Attack near post

3-Attack far post

4-1 player "Challenge GK" and 1 "attack from deep".

5-Stand far post

2 players Lurking (make sure one of them is your set-piece taker, that way you always have 1 player lurking)

2-Players Back

Corner Instructions (Team)- Set to " Short Option" or "6 yards box".

I like to do the following:

1 NP Flick

1 Chall GK

1 Stand on FP

2 Attack FD

1 Offer SO

1 Lurk

2 Stay back

Where do you aim your corners?

[Jazzfusion]

6 yard box . I find I score a realistic amount.

I wasn't looking for the cheat. I was looking for normal tactics.

I found the layout posted here works really well

I use this:

Aim at 6 yard box

4 best headers on:

Near post flick

Attack far post

Attack near post

Challenge GK

Rest of team:

2x Lurk (1 of which is the corner taker)

2x Back if needed

2x Stay Back

Tends to get me 15-20 goals a season, with 6-8 from the NPF, 4-6 from AFP and the rest scattered around.

I played with Chalrton. During first season from maybe october when I took over I scored only once from corner. But during the second season I scored around 30 from corners. That is so much goals from corners that it sounds like a cheat, but I doubt it is one. Never tried this with other team, you tell me. Anyway, my settings were:

Challenge keeper: Deep lying forward

Stand on far post: Stopper (Scored 19 league goals in 37 apps)

Attack on far post: Central defender (Maybe 5)

Attack on far post: Target man (Maybe 5)

Lurk: Central mid

Default: Defensive mid

Wingers: Forward (other one is usually taking the corner)

Full Backs: Other stay back, other when needed

Corner taken to far post.
