Mikel Arteta

[YoungMarlsy]

I'm having trouble setting Mikel Arteta to deep lying playmaker in my Arsenal save. I play 4-1-2-1-2, with Song DM-AnchorMan, Wilshere-CM Automatic and then Arteta. I can't seem to keep Arteta in the same deep position throughout the match and seems to roam around the pitch leaving a gap in the middle of midfield. Any help please??

Have you got him set to roam from position?

Have you got him set to roam from position?

Have you got him set to roam from position?

Funny way to introduce yourself you might get more anwsers in the tactics and training forum or the players forum but I think it might be because your midfield is so defensive he decides to get forward.

Then I guess he is just not really suited to that role, maybe he is too attack minded or has low positioning stats. I don't really know.
