GobbluthJD link for download for filter players ? please
I haven't made a filter, since I won the league with Frankfurt, Everton, and Roma without any transfers (H)
If I was looking for players though, I suppose it would be:
DLF: Good finishing and good passing. He'll hold up the ball a lot and lay off passes, mostly to the SS. Heading would be good to have too - you'll get a LOT of crossing goals with this tactic.
SS: Finishing, heading, and finishing. Passing and dribbling are good too. But this guy will score the bulk of your goals, usually. He pushes up when the DLF holds the ball and gets on the end of crosses from both wingers, so you'll want a guy with strong attacking attributes.
W: Crossing and passing are good here. They tend to stay wide and heave crosses in a lot.
BBM & A: Both of these midfielders will be doing a lot of defensive work and running up and down the pitch. It'll be a huge bonus if they are good passers too, as they will try many risky, direct passes. So you want high passing, high fitness, high marking and high tackling.
WB: About the same as the midfielders, you want high passing, high crossing, and good fitness, as they'll be pushing high up and throwing in crosses as well.
CD: Of course you'll want high marking and tackling and headers. One of your central defenders (the one you put on cover) should have a little better speed and headers, as he'll push higher up and try to cut out any attacks before they can reach the back line.
Nothing special for the goalie. There may be a fair few one-on-one's, because this match engine is crazy about them apparently, so get as good of a keeper as you can!
