Dcarey2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 So I'm playing with Arsenal. I'm winning comfortably at home but when I go away from home, I'm suffering ridiculous high scoring draws. Link of set up and team instructions. Any advice appreciated http://imgur.com/we0sik8,VuPuLAz#0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luizinho Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 You have no cover in your midfield. You need to have a defensive minded player in your midfield who can hold his position and give some defensive cover. A Ball-Winning Midfielder is very good role when used correctly, which he isn't in your set-up. He should be either a CM (D) or DLP (D) to cover for the rest of your roles, which are very attacking. Another tip would be that the formation your using is very attacking. Your two Advanced Playmaker will offer little to no cover when defending. Therefore you relying your midfield trio (MR, MC & ML) to battle for possession in the midfield, with your MC on his own in the centre. He is going to outnumbered by almost any formation.

Cheers for the feedback. I have now brought back the right AM back to the central midfield and converted him to box to box role. I have also changed the Ball winning midfielder into a DLP (D) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuraeero Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Also you should reconsider the roles of your full backs. Four defensive roles at the back is usually a bad decision. The gap between your midfield and defense is going to be huge and easily exploited by even the weakest teams in EPL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
