The Connection (2422) - Home & Away 13.3.3 by Jesaustralia

hmmmm.....Defensive positioning is for me an illussion. Now I tell you why!

I have tried this to and it seems like you will create more chances - I'm not exactly sure why it is like this, but it is. However what I see in difference between Attacking movement and defensive positioning is the shot amount on target - it seems like using defensive positionimg you will decrease your amount of shots on target (Inside the goal frame) than when you use attacking movement where it looks like you increase shots inside the frame - where the goalkeeper needs to save it :)

Shots alltogether it seems like defensive positioning win by a mile - No quality though

I have not analyzed Teamwork in this.

Defensive positioning acts wonderfully when keeping opponent to a low amount of shots which leads to a high amount of clean sheets for a better team. I was playing one of the best teams in the world in my game due to my former management of Middlesbrough in the Champions league final with Barcelona. I had my training on Defensive positioning - Middlesbrough had 0 chances against my 15-20 chances. Result at 90 minutes was 0-0 I ended up losing the final on penalty. Their is a screenshot of this in either Gooaall262 or This very thread I believe.

Conclusion to this is i feel its very important what match training you choose - where others only think it matters little.
 
Potential EDIT - SCR/Deep laying forward/Neymar=Mentality 20 along with creative freedom 20

I'm cleaning up the front page or organizing it a bit to show people your achievement!

Can you tell me if this was with original "The connection tactic or any of the tweaks" ?

Cheers pal
 
First 2 seasons were the original and 3rd and 4th were with the tweaks.

In all respect Ossis I hope you don't mind me interfering here :)

Neymar for me is a clear poacher and so is C.Ronaldo to me! - Ronaldo if he had workrate and teamwork he would be really good for the SCR role that's why I think he's a poacher too.. Don't look at the technique when training these just use the poacher schedule - Composure - Anticipation - offball - quickness - first touch Main Attributes

2nd Finish - decision - strenght

3rd technique

Technique is still good to have, but not essential :)

Now I'm gonna post how mine looks like and I will write how I use them below - hope you are fine with that :)

Aurelio - 1st Poacher
View attachment 337217

John - 2.Poacher Talent
View attachment 337216

Challender - 3.Poacher age 16
View attachment 337215

Rous - 1. SCR Also amazing complete forward in Freedom tactic - take another look at his skills - Don't know If you remember a former screenshot of another player for this position OBEM and Civita
View attachment 337214

Blake - 2.SCR Bought for the total voetball tactic - but jumping/heading sucks in the 3d engine confirmed by WWfan in a private message - So I skipped that tactic because I feel you need such a player atleast if its total football :) - He will be sold I have better alternatives for the next season!

Stahl - retrained winger (How my wingback's would look like) - Stahl more like a Normal wingback - those types can be very good to use so don't underestimate that. They do get into alot of situations where they have to be dangerous either by shot - pass or cross and why I went for wingers to be retrained
View attachment 337211

Nissim - winger retrained to wingback (one of the best players in the world - both as wingback and winger) Corner kick taker and can take freekicks, but are not first choice. The player below probably loves him because of the amount of goals he have scored from corners - remember season not over yet.
View attachment 337208

Choi-se-ha - Central Defender - Corner kick specialist in scoring goals - I always choose DC's for the nearpost they seems to be the best for this job. Having a strong tall striker I would maybe choose to challenge keeper. This very defender is on his way to break the record in my game for amount of goals - basically all scored from corners. take a look :)
View attachment 337207

Le Bigot - CMA or AMC - its not a bad idea to train these with the complete forward schedule as it adds everything you want alternatively box to box (I don't recommend) If you want quickness and creativity
View attachment 337205

Klinger - CMA or AMC - I feel he plays better than Le Bigot and for me a more complete midfielder than Le Bigot.
View attachment 337203

These were just a few examples - some more important than others, but nevertheless meant for inspiration in what to look for when buying or developing new players. Hope someone can use this :)

Will post link on the front page

So...what tweak version recomends for a squad like Real Madrid? One who let the poacher score like **** ( I want CR7 best scorer all seasons, I have a 49 goals record with him only in league teams with Elhazel+343 Diamond )

And how about train wingers like Bale for example for a FB spots?
 
Jes, I am always open to advice and help. Will be able to read it best tomorrow after work. Thank you for taking time out with the help and advice.. I appreciate it, very much!

All more Defensive players Creative freedom=15 no more no less - alternatively is 10 at the very minimum
Midfielders if like my examples creative freedom 20
wingers/inside forwards 18-20
Creative forwards creative freedom 20
Poacher/Box striker creative freedom 15-20
C. Ronaldo Creative freedom=15-20 - I tend to say start with 20 if he doesn't give you the performances you want change to minimum 15 - Mentality=20 - run from deep=often - run with ball=often - cross=sometimes/rare - cross from=Byline - Closing down=0 - tackling=easy - Roaming=no - Through balls=sometimes/rare (Rare)

Bale - I have never seen his attributes, but I believe he is a good winger. If he is a decent in tackling/marking/positioning 7+ - good in workrate - teamwork 12+ - you will need to make sure decision - concentration - anticipation gets worked on (you will want those skills to go around 15+) but it sounds like a switch between the fullback and wingback schedule for a winger. Remember quickness offball cross & dribbling. :)

Fm13 how to scout regents

Cheers
 
Nice tutorial mate.

You recomend put the date 5 or 6 days after the regens date? I mean, Argentina regens day is 2nd april and your reminder note date is 8th april.

I recommend you put it 2 days before and write argentina 2nd of april regents. Its weird mine is at 8th of april because I have typed it all in according to how it should be. So that is a detail you shall definitely ignore. Use the regents date from the GOOAALL262 thread they are taken from a reputable source.
