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.
are you playing him as support or attack?

terquartista attack 12,9 deep lying forward support 13 deep lying forward attack 13,7 poacher 13,3 advance forward 13,9 targetman support 15,6 targetman attack 16,4 complete forward support 13,55 complete forward attack 13,55 defensive forward support 12,4 defensive forward attack 13,4

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?

Which player?

Play C. Ronaldo on the right wing as a Inside Forward I think or a Winger even (but Ins Fwd is better I believe)

Higuain as attacker - Poacher
or Benzema as Poacher, or Adebayor as poacher :)

Those are the "most important details"
 
Paulo henrique (Ganso) ?
advance playmaker support 17,2 advance playmaker attack 17,1

I'd say poacher. He could be assigned with the advanced forward role, but I think poacher would suit him better.
 
I want to put Ramsey and Fabregas side by side in a 4-4-2 formation or 4-5-1 formation so which role should each have?
 
Right I need some second opinions on Falcao at Porto
So the status is, won the SuperCup beating Benfica 3-1 easily dominating them and Hulk has scored 13 in 8 in all competitions as inside forward custom AMR. Now I like the fact Hulk is scoring left right and centre but Falcao is a mystery to me, never used him before and has scored like 3 in 8 with avg rating of 7.2 but the amount of chances he is missing is ridiculous. I currently have him set to custom poacher with run with ball sometimes and passing short, I have been tinkering with how to play him as the targetman with to feet, run onto and mixed all attempted. Anyone got any suggestions?

And the other thing is preferred moves/individual training is there anything that can help me develop him because I know how much of an animal he is in real life. I am guessing to keep him poacher but how do I supply/train him best, I thought training on technique/finishing and prefered move as beating the offside trap/playing one twos but I really can't work him out. Normally I use complete forward support players, if anyone has any advice give me a shout.

Cheers
