What the hell does CWP stand for???

[cheekyboy]

As the question says, am I right in assuming it's a kind of sweeper role?

 

[stottmeister]

i will be watching this with interest, it has puzzled me for ages. i usually imagin it as SWP but the S swapped for a C to signify CENTRE

 

[Red Owl]

It definately means Sweeper, but I have sod all idea what the letters stand for... Central sWeeper Position?

Another thing, I wish Konami would call Side Backs "Fullbacks"

Central Wipper Posistion

:chanlaugh:

 

[fick]

Yeah, and bring back centre half and inside forwards like they had when I was a lad....

I think Konami are just idiots who think Sweeper is spelt CWP. Then again i could be the idiot and just don't know what CWP means :faceplm:

Central Wright-Phillips

 

[Kevthedrummer]

Central Winger Position :chanlaugh:

I imagine it's just a classic Konami spelling error. Or maybe they lost the licence to call them sweepers...

Even wikipedia aint got a clue of what a CWP is, i'm thinking it must be a secret message ?

Chelsea Wins Prem ???

i toyed with the idea they were CENTRAL WING PLAYERS but thats a big contradiction.
i think maybe in japanese the translation of covering centre back turns into central watching player? no? didn't think so

Go on...

Not really

but really, ive searched for ages, and cannot find a thing....maybe its some old italian position that seabass thought would be useful to try and sound clever

 

[HH]

There is an italian term for Sweeper, while theres also a word that starts with L.

 

[stottmeister]

libero

On the topic of sweepers, are there any of them around in real football. Ive always known them to be quite technical, can pass the ball out and can start some attacks as well as reading the game quite well.

What teams use the system these days?
