Ok, not really.
I read somewhere that if you zonally mark the six yard box, you're less likely to concede from corners. I'm pretty sure it was on this page somewhere that I saw that. Well, I tried it and it worked a treat! (Thanks whoever told me!) My Millwall team were one of the tallest teams in the league, yet I was top for conceding corners. I implemented this idea and I'm now second bottom (after promotion and a clearout of all my defenders) of conceding.
Now, however, I can't score from corners.
Where I was top for conceding, despite my tall team, I'm now bottom of both scoring and conceding. I miss the FM of years back when my CB was my second top scorer!
Please does anyone have any advice for scoring from corners? Any good setups?
Defending:
FB - Near/far posts
CB x2 - Zonally mark six yard box
DM - Outside area
MC - Zonally mark six yard box
MC - Zonally mark six yard box
SC - Mark tall player
Wings - stay up
Only conceded 3 goals from corners 18 games
Attacking:
FB - Stay back
CB1 - Attack near post
CB2 - Attack far post
SC - Challenge keeper
MC - Attack from deep
DMC - Lurk outside
Wings - Go forward
Only scored twice.
