antgetty77 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 i always play him amc and he is immense but other people prefer him as fc just depends on what tactics you are using. i use kimz 8.01 tactic with aguero on the right hand side of 3 amc's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andoz2000 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I would say that FC is his best position to get goals out of him. If you have a good striker already (like torres) then maybe play him as AMC and he will get LOADS of assists. Hope this helps. Peace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arathonas Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Second striker. Drop his mentality lower than Torres by a few notches, give him no forward runs or crosses, high run with ball, mixed through ball/long shot, set his passing to short and give him a free role. Wreaks havoc on any backline not good enough at tackling him, and if you have him closing down CBs and get his acceleration to 20, then he just starts scoring from bad backpasses every game.

ThE BoMBeR Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I played him AMC for 3 seasons... he scored 25 goals in about 50 apps each season. Just started my 4th season and decided to play him as FC this season... so far 7 apps and 4 goals Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stelly999 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I'd say he plays better at FC but if you already have quality forwards then he'll do fine for you at AMC. Does get plenty of assists there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Hunt Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I used to play 433 and retrained him very successfully as MC with lots of forward runs/run with ball/through balls. With a forward 3 of Fernandez/Torres/Saivet it was fairly attacking! But I think he works better in the middle than on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamD1990 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I play him AMR with a arrow to next to Torres, who plays up top on his own in a 4-2-3-1. Works well and he gets loads of assists and his fair share of goals too. Last season I got him in January and with Torres out for a month or so he played up front on his own and scored pretty much every game. Wehen Torres came back I moved him to AMR and he still got a few goals, ended that season with 8 in 13 matches in the league. This season not too sure but in January a similar number of goals in about 20 matches but loads of assists from mainly AMR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had him on my Milan save playing with the instructions I posted above, as the playmaker forward in a 4-1-2-1-2. He got 30+ goals and about 20assists in his first season, a lot of which were him intercepting backpasses due to the heavy pressure I put on opposition CBs. He's miles ahead of any of the strikers you mentioned in terms of skill, but he's not an out and out goalscorer like they are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game Man Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I have played Aguero all over the park and he never disappoint.. He is 30 now in my game and has just became the club top scorer, replacing Torres, scoring 41 goals in 38 apps, as a FC.. I think players performances varies from different saves. But Aguero did quite well for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll also make a guess that if you're totally unwilling to change tactics for a player like Aguero then those instructions aren't likely brilliant. Couldn't comment further without knowing what they are though. When tactical fine-tuning is brought into play, no striker in the game is involved in more goals than Aguero, not Zlatan, not Torres, not Robinho. You're welcome to try the instructions I posted above and play the ball along the ground (preferably with an AMC behind Sergio), close down the CBs, and watch him win every award going. You won't do that, because then you'll have to admit I'm right. And for what it's worth, he took a year to settle into any English side I've bought him for. It's only Italy and Spain I've seen him produce first-season results, but he ALWAYS produces results in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klimowicz Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 although he broke his leg twice in 4 years, Kun is the best striker i've had in the game. he played his first game of this season in december after recovering from the second brake, dropped benzema for aguero against WBA. hat-trick on his comeback, 6-1 win he and benzema don't work well together, however. i've got too many great AMCs to try him there, but i'm guessing he's equally remarkable in both positions.
