I am talking about the little green/orange/red discs that appear next to he players role/duty to indicate how comfortable they are in that role.
I guess my question is how much notice do other managers take of them?
Currently in a save with Morecambe, I have Reece Deakin on the left wing, played outstanding as my AML all season in the VNL and we are looking bang on to get promoted, so, after a season of playing a control or attacking formation (4-1-2-3 / 4-2-4) with wingers, I am preparing for a harder season and need a solid defensive/counter tactic for League 2.
Deakin gets a full green disc as AML on Winger/Support, and almost full green on Winger/Attack so I am confident in playing him as AML/S or AML/A, but put him in a 4-1-4-1 as Left Midfield, and he is less than half a red disc when given the same role/duty. I am not confident with what I am asking if he has such a poor indicator for that position.
His attributes are the same for both, and I basically want him to do the same as he has all season just a bit deeper. Have played a couple of game s in VNL against bottom teams and one in the FA Trophy semi using this tactic and he has played OK, but should I persevere with training and tactic familiarity or find another solution?
Thanks in advance
