Now I know people say that Pastore is best as advanced playmaker attack, but what if I'm using a 4-1-2-1-2 formation with wide midfielders (not CM's)? My DM will probably be a ball-winner on support, and the wide midfielders will be on support, and I'll have a deep-lying forward on support and a target man on attack. I will probably select Pastore as the playmaker (or should I not?). Should I put him on advanced playmaker (or attacking midfielder) support? If I put him on attack, won't that make him push too far forward? I'm an Argentine team, and its the classic Argentine formation. The AMC is called the 'enganche,' which means hook, and is supposed to be the link between the midfield and the forwards. I was thinking it would be better to put him on support because of this. But then again, should I put him on attack since that's what he's best at? And since he's by far my best player, should I put him on attack so he works his magic?
What do you guys think? Make the player role based on the tactic or based on what the player is best at?
