Konami,
One of the gripes I have with the game at the moment, while it is the most pleasant PES experience since PES6, is ultimately the lack of defensive options in terms of tactics. For example, why is it that we still can't have the option of covering both posts with players for corners? I scored a wonderful header last night in my Master League with Gutierrez so I was over the moon considering it's more of a positive challenge to score a goal this year - but it was slightly spoiled by the fact it went right into the corner with no defender on the post. There was a player guarding the front post, but no one back post which is where the header went in. It's been like this for years and it's about time it changed to be honest.
Another small change I'd like to see is the movement of the defensive players on a tactical level. Let's say the Left Back bombs forward on a run, it would be nice to see the remaining defensive line including the Right Back come across and act as 3 CBs in a 3 CB line almost for a short while until the Left Back gets back into position. This happens very frequently in the modern game and depending on whether there's a DMF or two ready to cover, the chances are it's the opposite side back that will help out and move over along with the Centre Backs. Just a thought as it might close up some defensive gaps and simulate reality as well on a more strategic level.
On another note I'd love to see the CPU be more willing to stick a leg out and tackle you. A lot of the time they seem to jockey and it would just be more challenging if they defended more aggressively and threw in a few more tackles - be it brash or fair.
