Strikers marking full backs (on goal kicks)

[dejarik]

Hello,

I play a 4312 formation. When playing against big sides, I'd like my strikers to mark the opposition full backs. In open play, the marking works. However, when the opposition has a goal kick, the strikers don't move to mark the opposition full backs until the keeper plays the ball. If the opposition keeper has Defender Collect (which the big sides often have), what often happens is that the keeper plays the ball to a full back (who is not marked), and before my striker gets to the full back, he plays the ball on to a MLR or AMLR.

Is there a way to actually have players on the full backs before the keeper plays the ball, while still using strikers? I don't want to change to a formation with AMLR just to mark full backs against big sides.
