Finally figured out the midfield. Deep playmakers = waste at CM

^simple idea is. IF sits narrower. Left wingback overlaps more. right wing gives width and right back supports. Striker has freedom or is a targetman.


I tried

DLP (s) with BWM (d)
DLP (d) with BWM(d)
DLP (d) with BWM (s)
DLP (d) with DLP (s)

and so on.


Turns out two box-to-box midfields are the absolute ****.

with a regista/dlp behind em or a ap infront of em.


Currently battling for Bundesliga ALREADY in the first season with Eintrakt Frankfurt.

DLP at CM works just fine for me in 4-2-3-1. Finished season with 11 assists (In about 40 games). Capezzi from Fiorentina, grabbed on free transfer.

Why is the DLP a waste? And is **** got in this situation, that having two BBM is a good thing?

DLP is a sitting role, doesn't move much up and down the field, looks to move the ball around. BBM on the other hand is a running role, so lots of movement up and down the field.

You probably like how the BBM's come late into the box to support your attackers and pressure the defence more.
