YLSFM00 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 The style of play is a hybrid of direct and high tempo play on the ball, and then pressing off it. Any tweaks or advice are appreciated SK (SU) WB (SU) BPD (DE) CD (DE) FB (SU) IW (AT) BWM (DE) W (SU) AP (SU) DLF (SU) AF (AT) Only PI is Get Further Forward on FB S TI'S In Possession More Direct Passing Pass Into Space Focus play down left and right Higher Tempo Wide In Transition Distribute to FB'S Counter Counter Press Out of Possession Higher DL More Urgent Use Offside Trap Prevent Short GK Distribution Any feedback is welcome 👍 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Experienced Defender Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I would cut out at least half your team instructions, to begin with. In terms of roles and duties, would be wary of using an aggressive role such as BWM as my (sole) holding midfielder. The rest of the setup looks okay/decent as a starting point.

I'll cut down the in possession TI'S seeing that there are quite a few, likely the focus plays. As for the BWM, i'm not too sure on that one. I might switch to a 4-4-2 Diamond Wide and make the BWM a HB, so it'll look like: HB (DE) IW (AT) W (SU) AP (SU) Could that work? And thank you again for the feedback 👍 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to use a HB in DM, then I would rather go with an IWB on support duty behind the winger than standard FB on support. Because HB serves to allow the fullbacks/wing-backs to push higher up, which is why the role perfectly suits this kind of system (wide diamond).

koikingu Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 What mentality are you playing on? You only have two midfielders, and both of them have "roam from position" as baked-in instructions, so I would be concerned that you're giving up the whole of midfield. I would at least switch the BWD to a CM(D) or DLP(D). If you're plan is to play direct, why do you have your playmaker in the attacking midfield layer? If he was in the central midfield layer as an AP(su), surely he could get the ball and play it upfield even faster on the counter? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
