despite searching, i couldnt find any thread like this. thus, i've decided to start my own.

since i got my fm, i've given my 2 cbs a central defender role, with defend duties. however, im getting increasingly upset with my poor defense in all of my games so far. thus, im thinking of playing the cover/stopper roles instead in the hope of conceding fewer goals. i wonder if you guys had any successes with the cover/stopper roles or any preferences.

if you followed my birmingham story, you will notice that i've impressive attacking records but my defence sucked balls. hopefully, someone can assist me. thanks in advance :D

Tried Stopper/Cover myself, and it seems more effective. Although you need the strong tall / pacy combo for it to work effectively I guess.
 
tried one man mark, and other one zonal mark ...
the one that used man mark set as stopper ...
and the other one just defend ...

it quite helpful ... :D
