[Lukeeggy]

I am using jp woody v1.1 with patch 3 and I'm having trouble converting chances. I am getting on average 25 shots a game but no one can score I am Valencia I have mata, raul, soldado, guti, riquelme, pedro leon, Vicente all on my team but no one scores I know there maybe threads for this but I'm looking for quick answers please my lone striker gets out numbered?

1.Do you play 4-2-3-1 with wingers or with 3 AMC ?
2. The 2 miedfielders are DMC or MC ?

It's the jp woody v1.1

this is my setup
sissoko
banega (2cm box to box)
pedro leon/hernandez (amr attack)
Vicente/mata (aml attack)
guti/riquelme (amc attack)
raul/soldado (poacher)

well he designed it as plug and play so you'll have to ask him cos i dont what tweaks he done to make it work

I don't know much, in fact I don't know anything about JP Woody's tactic, shame on me
If I were you I would use:

1. Juan Mata on the right (AMR) as an Inside Forward. This way you will increase chances of scoring goals.
2. Banega as an advanced playmaker with support duty
3. Sissoko as a ball winning miedfieler with defending duty
4. Guti / Riquelme as AMC with support duty, because you play with a poacher that needs support from behind.

I may be wrong, but this is the way I see it. Good luck.

Would I need to retrain him on the right then?

 

[sebastiansas]

Yes, because the Inside Forward gives the best result when he plays on the opposite flank to his better foot. Juan Manuel Mata has the left foot very strong. This means that you have to play him on the right flank to get the best out of him. But this only in the case that you play him as an Inside Forward. He will break through the opposition's defense and try to shoot often.

Great good advice would just need to retrain all right side players now lol
