WE7 is so realistic that it is giving me the creeps

Having top the table (ML League) by a miserable point after 18games, I was beginning to experience the pressure as in real life football .I had an extremely good scoring record. All of a sudden, I had this inexplicable dip in form (perhaps I’ve peaked at the wrong time). As in previous ,I played with 5 strikers up front but suddenly all of them seemed to be experiencing a barren run and playing like amateurs. Their shots were all over the place save for the net and I even wasted some rare one to one situation. Even with the keeper soundly beaten, a defender will somehow make a miraculous save never seen before. The situation looked jinxed. My team has slided from the top position to number 6 after 24 games without any goal to the tally.It was either a scoreless draw or a loss. Before Game 25, I went through another round of tutorial and practice just in case..
Yesterday, I was playing Blackburn Rovers (Game 25) and we were awarded a penalty in the first half. I had to break the jinx and this was the perfect opportunity. Inamoto took the shot calmly. I know that by hitting it at the center, the possibility of scoring will be much greater. Surprising, the keeper stood there and parried the shot.It looked like he could read my mind. In the second half, I was accorded another penalty, Inamoto took the shot but beckhamed it again. I swore the earth did not move but the sky did come tumbling down as my team slide from 6 to 7. Well that Murpy’s Law for me. I have to win the final game to ensure of a berth in the WEFA Championsip but judging by the way things is going, jaded and bruised, it is not going to be easy.

That doesn't seem very realistic.

Yes I agree with you. Previously my scoring record has been abysmal but having recruited 5 strikers and deploying them on the field has indeed changed the way I played. My scoring record has improved dramatically. However it is important to choose the right strikers. Some strikers do not click well with others. I had a tough time with Thierry Henry, Torres and even Ronaldo.

PES3 and WE7 only allows you to play with a max of 4 strikers/wing players. How did you play 5 at once?

He must have used position edit to move up a midfielder?

 

[Zygalski]

I've tried editing positions many times and it only allows 4 players in the last third of the pitch to play as a striker/winger.

I read something about copying and using the default Valencia formation to give you 5 strikers but that may have been for PES2, I'm not sure.

Good observation. My formation is 3-4-3. It is something is this



x
x x B
x x
x x A x

I moved two midfielders up A & B(used strikers for it) but it is not possible to align A and B together. It is possible to move either A or B deeper but not both.
One of them will move up only to a certain distance. The system will sound and that will be the limit.

The diagram is not showing the right picture as per my draft. But anyway both A and B cannot be on the same line. Either A or B can move in deeper but not both.
