Hey guys, sorry if this has been asked. Is there an easy way to to push your backs forward to help in the attack? Maybe a good formation to use or a good way to send them on runs and keep them forward?


Thanks,

Yeah, the player run system is shear crap, but the best possible formation for getting your wing backs forward has to be the 5-3-2/3-5-2, which gives them complete freedom of the wings, and swamps the midfield...

agreed..cant figure why they couldnt use a better wingback system as they did in 2002...(with the arrows and all)...if i play 4-4-2 attacking my sodding fullbacks stay so deep if my winger gets dispossessed..they can let rip on my flank...

Yeah, I agree with ya on the Fifa 2002 comment. I liked the way you could set them to push forward in that game. Thanks for the input folks, I'm going to play around with a 5-3-2 and 3-5-2 system and see if that helps.
