Defending with a high defensive line.

[mikeybee09]

Hi everybody i think im onto a great tactic. Ive not let many goals in so far but the ones i do let in are either balls over the top or just simple through balls. i do realise this is because of my high defensive line. Does anyone have any experience with playing with such a high line and what did they do to decrease the chances the opposition will get.

I will upload my tactic for anyone who wants to try. it is very effective going forward.

As you play with 2 anchors, why not try switching both CD to cover duty? Was having a similar problem on my Ajax save and doing that has dramatically reduced the amount of silly goals I concede.

I was thinking the same myself. i will give it a go see how it goes.

how are the results with switching to CD?

Cover CB or Sweeper Keeper mate.

Having one of your Anchors as a Half-back with a CD-Cover behind him means the HB fills the space the CD leaves when he runs behind the defence to sweep up.
