What settings do you put your RBs and LBs on when you want to play attacking football? I found out after a few games that if you put them on attacking they will leave out a huge space on the sides where the opponent wingers could cut and cross in the box.

Try adding forward runs, then they know they can go up for supporting attack but that they have to get back.

I dont let mine run forward either, too much risk of them going to far and then the wingers can get easier crosses past them and to the strikers.:kader:

Yeah. Ashley Cole is the world's best left back. No better analogies for a left back who takes long shots, crosses and runs forward......:D

I was referring Roberto Carlos for those of you who didn't read that.:D

I would have said Zambrotta, but you said long shots.:rolleyes: (H)

i have my wingbacks running back towards their own goal.... was concedin loads of goals when they ran forward but now iv got cover all the time and i dont get hit with long balls into the channels. i turned my team around from worst defence in league, to one of the best... all 4 defenders are on ultra defensive too......

I have my full-backs on defensive, and zonal. I tell them to cross ball and run with ball, but i dont have them on forward runs. So they get a cross or 2 sometimes, but when one goes forward the other stays so i have 4 at the back (with DMC included) even with a fullback attacking.

I concede goals more from crosses though, sometimes they get dribbled easily, and i have Bonera and Zonneveld as full-backs.:rolleyes:
