I've asked my board for the last two seasons to relay the pitch, as the conditions have gradually got worse in that time. They have kept saying 'No' as they don't think it's that bad. When even on my club information screen it says pitch conditions are poor. Now because of this, I'm starting to...

I normally set my defenders (CB's) to ultra defensive with very low creative freedom. Passing is mixed at home, with direct (around 14-16) away from home. My question is, with a higher mentality, say 6 or 7 with the direct passing (away from home) would it give better long balls towards my...
