Mr.e Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Because that's how it feels to me. I enjoy using this role a lot but of recent it seems like the player always tries a long pass without much effort and it gets intercepted resulting in an opposition chance. And yes, he has both switch ball to the other flank and tries long range passes skills, combined with high passing, vision and decision making.

kentonizking Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 What level of highlight do you watch the game on? What do the data analysis say? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineCloudNine Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 I have only used a RPM rarely but when I do it’s with take more risks / more direct passing and all the killer ball / playmaker PPMs. That means they give the ball away more but also provide more high quality chances. So it comes with the territory. See: Trent Alexander-Arnold at his best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you tend to play a possession based style, with those ppms he will likely be taking more passing risks that the rest of your team, so law of averages says he will give the ball away more often than anyone else. I'd be comparing his passes completed % to your other players - is it that he gives the ball away more than them, or that he just does so in riskier situations due to his role and ppms? Also, think about the roles of the rest of your midfield. If your rpm is on defend and everyone else is more advanced or on attack, he will be hitting even more risky passes, this increasing the likelihood he will give the ball away.

It,s not that he has a low passing % but when i use that role majority of the opposition highlights come from his misplaced passes. But i do understand what your saying.

But it's a roaming playmaker, only available in dm/cm position. I'll just do something else Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phd_angel Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Yes. Not just this role but in general: too many wrong passes, and shooting often is like watching pinball at an arcade... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
