Tryllefot Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Why is it always the striker that comes short on throw ins? I have put my striker in all thinkable positions, yet he comes short when my team has a throw in on the opositions half. I can't see the logic, anyone know why? All I know is; I don't want him there. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
moirdr Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I have this exact same issue, I play with Villa and no matter what I do I end up with Wesley on the right/left wing when we have an attacking throw-in. He invariably plays it back to the full-back and then I have nobody in the box to aim for because Wesley is stuck out wide. I've tried setting him to all in-box roles in the set piece editor and bringing 2 other players to come short, but nothing works. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise throws use teams formation in throws. Dont know why its like this but thats the way it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes at least if you got 2 or more strikers. If i got tall player on the left side and smaller on the right i know theres no point using mixed throws on the left side because tall st comes short and small is in goal area.

Ok, I play with one striker, and even if I tell him to lurk on the far post he comes short. I find that annoying at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasonen Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Ok thats not good. Winger/IF attack role is dangerous in throws because they tend to be open on far post area too. Its just stupid to put other winger sending crosses allways to far post because of throw-ins. then they allways try far post cross. :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
