Gameplay issues

I cannot figure out the R3 button, when i do press it and release a player and then hit pass often times it wont pass to the guy iv released but another player nearby,
Also when on attack i am extremely confused what exactly is the right strategy to use, is it the one-two pass and thats it given the new AI who makes runs anyway or should i use the R3 extensively? Uusally i just confuse myself with so many options and just make a mess of it.
Also on the shoot, is there a finesse shot?

On defense, i am even worse as I use the X button and R1 extensively but usually either miss the player completely or concede a soft foul.
When i jockey instead using R2, I usually end up leaving too much space for the attacker.

Been trying to practise hard, but unable to iron these out. Sorry if the questions are basic, first year i am back to PES since 08.

Hey guys,
Could anyone please help me here, I am very lost especially on defense, it seems that all my players run away from the ball, i am probably not understanding the change player option well?

I have been out of the PES loop since 2008 so any help would be fantastic.
Thanks

You can change player with both L1 and the right analog stick now.

Defending takes a while to master. Ease off on the sprint button. There's no need to dive into challenges with it. Fair enough when you're chasing a player, but don't sprint towards opponents that are coming towards you with your defenders.

Finesse shot is R2 whilst pressing the shoot button, I think. :)

Don't switch, the AI is playing defense correctly, you just have to assist by playing your position and clogging the passing lanes.

Thanks for the help guys, just to clarify,
So when im defending, i should just not bother with the L1 button and just defend with the guy the AI assigns to me?
Is there a way i can make this completely manual as I am just not used to that.


On the offence, question still stands, how do i correctly chose the direction of the person i want to respond to my R3 command, it seems very arbitrary both when i hit the R3 and whats worse is after i chose this player and hit the pass button sometimes itll go to a completely different player in the vicinity?
What am i doing wrong?

I think you can make it manual on the controller select screen. Back on PS2, I think you had to hit L1 or R1, depending on how little/much assistance you wanted. Not sure if it's the same now.

And I would still advise you to control whoever you feel is best, just don't over-commit.
