Quick hattrick question.

Do you play one of your wingers offensive?? Im also using a 4-5-1 and i wanna generate a little more Offense. Or will that effect my midfield to much???

and also... which one of these would you play at winger???


Per Godland
36 000 US$, 20 years, poor form
Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities

Stamina: inadequate Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: wretched Passing: weak
Winger: inadequate Defending: poor
Scoring: passable Set Pieces: inadequate


Charles Eddy
44 000 US$, 26 years, inadequate form
Has wretched experience and poor leadership abilities [Unpredictable]

Stamina: passable Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor
Winger: inadequate Defending: weak
Scoring: weak Set Pieces: poor



Im thinking if i decide to make one winger offensive i should play Per. But if i keep it normal then i think i should play Charles.

I just bought another passable winger but i dont think he'll be on my team before the game tonight.

Lemme know what you think. Your the FOFC expert on the 4-5-1

Keep an eye on form...it's crucial as well...a player with poor form will not perform as well as a player with passable form.

bump.... where's DK whne ya need him ;)

I know I'm not DK, but I play a 4-5-1 and I play both my wingers offensive. The site ABC of Tactics (http://hem.passagen.se/hammervald/abc_of_tactics/abc_of_tactics_index.htm) convinced me that playing a winger offensive should almost be a standard, as it will drop your defense rating (not midfield) which is a very secondary rating for a winger and it will increase the winger rating, which should be the forte of any winger...

Good luck. I'm up 3-0 in my cup game!!!

Simply visit that site, it really helped me understand the implication of the different individual orders...

Geez guys...give me an hour or two will ya. ;)

Overall, I'd say Eddy is the better winger, as he will contribute something to the midfield (inadequate playmaking) and Godland won't (wretched playmaking).

In this case, I would actually prefer to play Eddy offensively, as his one worse level in passing should be made up by the fact that his form is two levels higher.

Neither one of these guys is going to "light it up" offensively (you need better passing ratings for that), but if you're playing a 4-5-1 then you probably need all the offensive help you can get.

Another thing to consider is to play Eddy normally, and the midfielder on that side offensive (assuming you have one with decent playmaking and passing skills). If you want a midfielder or winger to play well offensively, they'll need some passing skill. I recently purchased a winger for this exact purpose.

I hope this helps, and that it isn't too late.

yeah i did play eddy instead.
Once i get this guys form up he'll me starting. Got him for 2,000 :)

Whoops... this time difference has got me off my game.

If I didn't put orders in, will it just use the default? If so, what's the danger of starting my starters in the cup (against a VI bot team :( ) rather than my backups once league play comes? I notice most use the second team for friendlies, but I have little second team to speak of.

TIA

whatever you have set as regular it'll use...I'm sure you'll whip the bot tho
