Hey,

I cant seem to solve my teams defensive issues. I keep conceding far more goals in a season then other teams even below me in the table. I have tried both 3-4-3 and 4-4-2 formations. I have some questions as nothing seems to be working:

1. Should my defensive line always be pushed as far up as possible in my advanced tactics settings or shall they sit deeper?

2. What should my attack, defense and play setting be set at?

3. Where should I have my FWD, AVE and DEF lines be set to in my tactics?


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You have a huge hole in the middle of your half when defending. Your DFM is not used well.
As for the lines and stuff you asked, trial and error worked and works for all of us so try out with different setups untill you are satisfied. As it is, its not looking bad except for that huge hole which leaves attacker to come to your last line without any struggle.

Thanks for the reply... So what do you suggest I do with the DFM? Normally I try to position him just infront of the 2 CB's. 09/07/2015 07:50

I watched your last lost game again, maybe the only problem is too much man-to-man marking. Try lowering it little by litle and see how that works for your formation. But I think your problem is that he plays too low, He is doing what xDFs/Cdfs should do while they do nothing. Bit hard to explain what I mean this way, but I hope you get what I mean.
