mean that the game consider that player from the position that is shown in red.

Football guide:
"Some players have a preferred side, depending on which side of the pitch they like to play. Others - universals, play equally well on the right, left and in the centre. The universals are the best choice for the positions in the centre because the players in the central positions influence the play on both wings. If, for instance, you put a player who prefers to play on the right into the centre, his influence on the left wing will be somewhat decreased."

Question: If, for instance, I put a player who prefers to play on right into the centre (left side of centre positions), he will influence both left and right sides ?

Sure... I read somewhere in the Manual or FAQ that players influence the areas next to the one they are positioned.

Lol! I've just found it:

The closer the area is the more influence gets

since we can send guys to camp now, and the season hasn't started, if we have a camp now, does it count against the two we get during the season?

Does anyone knows how ball possesion is calculated ?

My opponent, FC Ham Ham, played with 3 CDs but he has ball possesion higher on left side than on centre !

Another question !
If my opponent chose to attack on flanks, why balls possesion is higher on MY flanks if I chose to attack on centre ?

I feel silly asking this but there doesn't seem to be ANY info on it anywhere.
-How can I determine why I lost a match?
-How can I tell how to improve my team or where they lacked?
-What are the desired stats for the various positions?
-What is my lineup strength?
-How do I swap guys in through the game so the same ones aren't playing all the way through?

It just seems like so much is missing from this game.

I'd be interested to know that too...

oh yeah

the one side team attacked that side ofcourse, the other team center + right

My suspicion is that it would count towards the season 1 training camps. Since the energy won't be reset (to the best of my knowledge) on Monday. That is my suspicion. However I will ask and confirm.

what a bunch of BS!
I see less and less reason to play this branch of PPM if games like that can happen. Beyond the stupid lineup, what about tactic anything how can you tell what he did better than you? Am I missing something here?

oh not you, but still..

Official verdict: Yes it will count.

remember, the lineup on the field isnt where the players play exclusively, just where they have the most influence. While I agree that's a pretty terrible lineup and should most likely be penalized greater than that, it'd be nice to see what those players are doing. I would think they'll be running to the ball if it's on their left, not just ignoring the zone completely.
