Where would you play them?

[Jden86]

I'm interested in others thoughts on where you would play certain players on the pitch and the formation you'd play.

I'm with Man Utd in my 4th season, won two titles and lost CL final to Barca last season, going through a confusing stage at the moment with my attack minded players, who should play on the left, right and ST.

A.Martial
M.Depay
G.Barbosa
B.Embolo
A.Januzaj
B.Silva
J.Wilson

P.Pogba
L.Romero
A.Herrera
R.Bazoer
K.Asamoah

L.Shaw
M.Rojo

M.Darmian
M.Fernandes

M.Benatia
A.Laporte
C.Smalling
P.Jones
E.Mammana

D.De Gea
S.Sirigu

Pogba is at CM in the World Team of the Year, Depay has won Golden boot in EPL last 2 years and EPL player of the year, has played most of his time at AML.

I'd put as many of the best players in their preferred positions, roles and duties as possible but within a coherent team shape. Look to break the lines by having one or two players attacking from slightly deeper positions (Luke Shaw, for example), supporting further up and a defensive influence in midfield.

Look for Overlap, give specific crossing instructions to all of your wide players and give some thought to who is most likely to get on the end of those crosses, given the areas on the field that the ball will land. Watch a few matches in the Comprehensive View so you can see how (or whether) the players are implementing your instructions and which of them does it well/which instructions might need to be tweaked.
