north_london_fan Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 In this save I have taken over Norwich, with the aim of staying in the league whilst playing an outfielder in goal and a goalkeeper as a target man up top. For the outfield goalkeeper, I chose the best outfielder, who had decent attributes in the standard goalkeeper role. These were anticipation, concentration, decisions, positioning, agility, first touch and passing. To fill this role I went with Lewis Wing from Blackburn. For the goalkeeper up front, I chose a goalkeeper with the best possible attributes in the target man support role. These were first touch, aggression, anticipation, bravery, composure, decisions, off the ball, teamwork, balance, jumping reach and strength. For this role, I went with Lee Nicholls from MK Dons. As for tactics I will play a custom direct counter attacking 442 tactic, as I feel this will put pressure on the goalkeeper to see how he does and I feel this suits the target man role quite well. In order for the target man to get more goals etc, I have set him to stay forward for every defensive set play and each attacking set piece will be aimed towards him. He is also our direct free kick and penalty taker. I will do an update each match. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
