where are the runners on the wing?

[stottmeister]

There was a thread about this once but i cant find it to see the answer.

My question is why do the wingers hold up when you run up with your L or RB? i can get right to him and he actually waits then moves backwards. Is there a command to make him go up?

I resorted to using RWF and LWF in order to shove them up-field but then i play my wingers out of position. I have also put their defense on low to try and prevent him from holding up but it still seems like they are waiting for something. I regularly shout at my telly for them to ''FUCKING RUN YOU IDIOT!''

Any ideas?

Try using the tactics. CB overlap (i think thats what its called) and Strategy A and/or Strategy B. Set up Strategy A and/or B with the position for your wingers when you attack or defend, or where you want them to be when CB's have the ball.

That's one idea.

One of the weakness of the game that's bugging me too.

And CB overlap aint the solution, coz what will happen is one of your CB will run straight up to the opponent's D box.

So i can select strategy A as my attacking strategy and B as my defensive one? Never really looked into this much. Can i give each strategy a different formation, like attack having my SMF's further up and defense having them further back?

Yeah. Strategy A and B are the only ones I use and they work perfectly. Set up the formations on how you want them to be when you attack/defend attack down the middle/to the right, etc. Look into it. Then set them with a trigger of your choice (RT + A X Y B).
