I havent seen anyone score effectively from crosses but myself, its pretty much the only way I score. You really dont need to defend against it unless ur against MAYBE some select A teams and only a few ML teams as well.

I was just going to mention your team about the crosses. You need special mids for that.

Please share: Even some expensive mids will waste the balls from the wings, how do you get yours to consistantly cross when they're supposed to? You can tell me, I don't have the mids to use it against you anyway.

What am I? Chopped liver?

I just changed my tactic this week, and went from 6 shots to 13 this week. I haven't been able to figure out with a bunch of tweaking how to get my wings with excellent passing to do little more than randomly kick the ball across the middle. They just aren't good enough yet. Maybe next season with more training, I'll see some benefit to stretching them out. But as it stands, I lose possession of the ball too much to justify trying nifty crossing passes.

It isn't the passing that's going to get you the good crosses, it's the playmaking. If you focus on pace, technqiue, playmaking and defense, and less on passing than you would on your IMs, you'll see some positive results from your wingers. Remember... a cross doesn't need to hit your striker square on the foot to make a chance... if it lands in the box and gives your strikers a chance to make a play, that's what matters.

Gotcha. I'm training both about 40% of the time each, with the rest spent on pace and now tech.

Benmor,

I just play from twice a season and sometimes more. I've experienced his team first hand. Thank's for the info on the mids.

How high should PM be to make the winger cross properly every time?
Is excellent PM enough? How low can I allow passing to be? good!?

Thanks

If the player hits the ball without dribbling it and have little tech, bear in mind this can also lead to a poor shot, at least that is how the rules read.

My best winger is excellent pace, solid tech, excellent PM, adequate passing. Dzwigala. You can see him in our match together.

I personally wish we could personalize training like on hockey arena :/

They mention miss-kick a lot in the rules, the part about miss-kicking the simplest balls seem related to shooting accuracy.


"Technique

Many of the game aspects depend on technical skills.
- skill of controlling a pass; a player with a poor technique may mis-kick even the simplest balls.
- pace of dribbling; players with poor technical skills significantly lose pace whilst moving with the ball
- skill of passing a defender with a one on one duel and controlling the ball during a feint
- chance of mis-kicking while trying to make a one-touch pass."

Thank you for the info! I'll buy a couple of wingers next season, just to make things interesting in the ML.

The nice thing about playing true wingers is that most teams don't defend them, even when they know that you play them. So they're always open.

They don't defend them because most wingers have been wasting balls. You might have told me enough to help me defeat Fro next time we play.

I'll help you out also by warning you that ML and A-League are day and night. You look like you could autopromote so start preparing now for the ML.

I won't autopromote, Wisconsin Enforcers will. I haven't actually had a big payday on a trainee sale yet, so I'm looking forward to making some purchases when I do.

Lakay is right about the day and night.

I was undefeated in A league last season..

Even with some major team improves in all areas, I am 2-1-5 in the Majors this season. Sponsers are actually starting to abandon me.
