I don't know if anyone mentioned it yet but the link to that role calculator is no good. Anyone know why?
 
Roles for Iker Muniain as a lone striker ?
Javier Pastore in AMC, Playermaker or Attacking Midfield
Paolo Henrique Playermaker or Attacking Midfield
 
Dirk Kuyt?
Play a 4-5-1
I have Suarez and Carroll but I sometimes throw Kuyt on when they tire.
 
So don't play Kuyt upfront at all? Carroll seems to get tired a lot, probably cause he's lazy. And I find that Suarez plays best as an inside forward out wide right, sign a back-up striker maybe?

Playing With Man Utd

-----STC------
LW--AMC--RW
--MCL---------
--------DMR--
RD-CD-CD-LD

STC = Rooney
LW = Nani
AMC = Lamela (bought)
RW = Valencia
MCL = Fletcher
DMR = Nocerino (bought)
DR = Evra
DC = Smalling (Ferdinand Injured)
DC = Vidic
DR = Rafael

Would love some help on what roles to put these players, not only for them personally, but to overall benefit my team. THX

Rooney - Complete Forward/Attack*
Nani - Winger/Attack/Cut inside/Run with ball/Reduce long shots**
Valencia - Winger/Attack/Hug touchline/Run with ball**
Fletcher - Ball winning midfielder/Support/Through balls/Little creativity
Evra - Wingback/Support***
Rafael - Wingback/Support***
Vidic/Smalling - Defend/Short pass (I've never used stopper/cover as you really don't need to)****

* To get more out of your team you should retrain Rooney to play AMC and play Hernandez as a poacher.
** Personally I tend to keep my wingers on support. Neither Nani or Valencia are very good at scoring. Better to have them suppling assists rather then wasting easy chances.
*** Set to defend when playing strong opposition away from home
**** None of United's CB are very good at passing so stick to playing short balls to the midfield.

How to play Andy Carroll? When in 4-5-1, target man isn't very effective.

attacking mid attack 14,5 deep lying playmaker support 14,1

also if u retrain him he could be a really good deeplying forward support (14.4)

thanks dude.
 
Hey guys, saw people mentioning neymar the most as a poacher, but i just took over barca after 5 seasons of arsenal, and they had neymar, i play him as deep lying forward attack, and hes just outstanding, 14 matches, 13 goals , 11 assist 8.16 average rating. cant seem to get the best out of kadlec yet tho
 
How about Hernan Crespo and Frazier Campbell? Just signed for Portsmouth in 2nd season after getting promoted. Also got Simon ***, Dave Nugent, Dave Kitson, Febian Brandy and Nwankwo Kanu but Crespo and Campbell are my starters.

Playing 4-4-2(Wingers) at the moment but might change to 4-5-1 against big teams.
 
I feel extremely stupid for asking this :P But I'm playing a 4-5-1 with R Madrid and I can't get him scoring?
