موضوع: Football Formation discussion

exex my player is defender with huge shoting attribute
I just hope that he scores all penalties until the end of season

How dare you misspell the king's name. Shame on you.

Im so sorry. I hope that god will forgive me?

Jari = Legend!!

I only remember of Martin Palermo.. and he entered into Guinness Book for missing those penalties...

Good to see the football ME is like real life
I have seen as footballlayer in amateurs also an opponent that missed 3 penaly°ties against us..stil we lost zero to two lol, we were bad....

good luck with next pk...train him on tech some as punishment

Also in this match when Palermo missed three penalties Argentina lost 3-0 to Colombia, Your player also missed 3 penalties and You lost 4-0... interesting, huh?

I remember one major game that had a perfect answer to the formation question. In this particular game it gave you a choice of about 20 of the most popular formations. I thought this was ideal. You had enough choices to match any given situation and every formation made some sort of logical football sense.

Would love to see that used here, so I dont have to see so much insane garbage being used by some managers.

True, but total control of your player positions is always going to be the best way to do it. I like the 4-1-2-1-2 formation... but sometimes use center strikers and sometimes add a side forward instead, so need the total control.

Yes but what your looking for is the perfect answer and quite frankly there isnt one. In the top 20 formations you will always find one that meets most of your own objectives. Since you like many coaches like the diamond, there are several in the top 20. That said its nice to know your opponent isnt playing some ridiculous schoolyard formation. Your actually playing real football.

Exactly. I've seen a lot of games used pre-set formations and they do work 98% of the time.

I know PPM are working to put a penalty on teams who play with ridiculous formations, so they are definitely working on it.

from my experiences you are a little bit better if you have different formation that 422 but it has to be formed considering team player's attributes.

Hope your right about the penalty Trueblue. I prefer the 20 formation solution for 2 more reasons. Obviously with the penalty idea your going to have lots of borderline cases and arguments.Having twenty set formations takes all the subjective bias out of as everything offered is legal. 2) I would imagine the programming for the developers would be far easier for 20 set formations, than for trying to a judge a penalty for every conceivable formation.

Tolek your probably right on that one. That said, I think your far less likely to make a glaring mistake on a 4-4-2 than any other formation. How I approached the game was to start with a 4-4-2 and slowly experimented with other formations in friendlies.

with new engine i had 7 offsides with 1 Foward ...
