Vulnerable to Counter Attacks

[slackerz]

I've had games where I lost 3 - 2 to everton through last minute goals from Wayne (why am I scoring from everywhere and is overatted? ) Rooney.

I won a corner and Pires drifts it in whereas Graveson heads clear past my 3 defenders. Rooney got it and brought up and up before slotting past Saja.

Gr...... I already had my 4 defenders on Defensive (DCs on Ultra Defensive) and always stay back but why is this still happening?

Pacey strikers can run through. Try a DMC, a good one who can break up opposition attacks. You can even have your full backs attacking, but just compensate, with a DMC. Should work.

But guess what? I got Gilberto and Vieira too but still....the same thing happen. Maybe I should get them Back?

 

[JTNY]

Do you play them as MC or DMC?

 

[slackerz]

I play a 4-4-2 formation with Pires, Ljungberg on wings, Campbell and Marinho DCs, Vieira and Gilberto as MCs and Henry and Luque as FCs.

 

[JTNY]

Try a SW or DMC.

 

[slackerz]

But I like working with 442s. Maybe I'll try and get Vieira or Gilberto back from set plays.

P.S. I add you to MSN

You answered your own question Slackerz. You have to keep defenders back in ALL set pieces. They should also be on ultra-defensive, except the wingbacks who could I suppose go on normal. Also, Gilberto and Vieira should be on a defensive/ultra-defensive mentality.
