Jefferson Farfan & Jimmy Briand

[Mark.]

Ive had a bit of a search on the forums but I cant seem to find posts on how to best set these two guys up instructions wise to get the most out of them.

So far their player instructions are as follows:

Farfan

Position: AML with a farrow to AMC.

Mentality: First notch of attacking

CF: Normal

Passing: First notch of short moving from mixed.

Foward Runs: Often

Run with Ball: Often

Long Shots: Mixed

Through Balls: Often

Cross Ball: Rarely

Briand

Position: Faster striker in a two striker combo.

Mentality: One notch from all out attack.

CF: Three notches from center.

Passing: First notch of short moving from mixed.

Closing Down: Whole pitch.

Forward Runs: Often

Run with Ball: Often

Long Shots: Mixed

Through Balls: Mixed

Cross Ball: Mixed

I'm on patch 8.0.2, first season, and im not sure if it really matters but im playing as London Utd in theincrediblehulk's challenge.

A few things I was thinking about: Briand is the faster of the two strikers (currently playing beside Amauri) so I was thinking that I should maybe reduce the mentality of his bigger taller partner and increase Briand's a bit so that he will run onto the balls that Amauri knocks on for him. The other option is to reduce Briand's mentality a little more and use him more as a deeper lying foward (I dont think he really has the attributes for this).

Also I was wondering if I should maybe not be using Briand as a first choice striker this season and have Farfan play as the other striker with Amauri and put someone else in the AML position.

I think this should go on the tactics forum mate.

Yeah I wasn't too sure as it pertains to particular players, but I will post it in there as well and if it a mod wants to lock it then thats sweet.
