stemlfc Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Hi all, It's been a few years since I've posted here. I recently picked up FM16 after a two year absence. I'm really enjoying it so far but one thing that has puzzled me and I can't find a guide to it are pitch sizes. I've just finished the first season with Inter Milan and my grounds man has asked for the specifications. I'm playing a possession based tactic so I think the pitch needs to be as big as possible but there are so many options. Is there a guide at all? I sometimes have a counter attacking tactic depending on the opposition. How do I strike a balance? Any advice? Thanks, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
herne79 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I've personally found it makes no difference to me whatsoever. I just set standard size and get on with it. Never seen a guide, no idea if one exists, no idea why there would be one . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirManager Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Pitch does matter depending on your playstyle in my opinion. A small pitch means a narrow approach in majority of games. A wider pitch means wide play (I usually use the biggest if I was to play a possession style game to create more space for players and etc). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rashidi Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I have never cared too much about the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loklokno123 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I find it is very difficult to defend team which has Max wide pitch . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAss88 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 There is a good guide for pitch dimension here: http://fminside.net/guides/helpguides/pitch-dimensions/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-Walton Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 I'll borrow this thread for a question. What pitch size (small, normal, large) is optimal for Gegenpressing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazpro Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 You used to have the option to change the pith size every season but I think It must be set now because i haven't seen it come uo for the last two seasons on my save ?? I had mine set to max size (106m x 69m), but in the facilities window it now appears to be set lower (105m x 68m). What is even more confusung to me is why are these pitches so small as the official max pitch size is 120m x 90m. these dimension are taken straight from the F.A. rule book. Dimensions The touchline must be longer than the goal-line.Length (touchline):minimum 90m (100yds)maximum 120m (130yds)Length (goal-line):minimum 45m (50yds)maximum 90m (100yds) Dimensions for international matches Length (touchline): minimum 100m (100yds) maximum 110m (120yds) Length (goal-line): minimum 64m (70yds) maximum 75m (80yds) Competitions may determine the length of the goal-line and touchline within the above dimensions.
