Movement on offense and counterattacks.

How do you get the players you're not controlling to get MOVING on basic turn-overs by your opponents and when you're making a run up the field.

They just seem to stand their with their thumb up their arse. Or when you're charging down the wing they jog oh so slowing and by the time you're at your opponents goal line they haven't even made it to the penalty box. I don't have the greatest team at this point, but enough of my offensive players are more than fast enough.

Is this just a fault in the AI, or am I missing some really obvious settings?

Well a lot of it has to do with how you set their "attack" arrows in the team formation menu. Players with arrows set forward are more likely to attack.

Another aspect is the players "attack" rating. Players with higher attack ratings will make runs more often than those with a lower rating.

Try and make sure you are attacking in a fluid, "going forward" motion. I have found that by the time the play has slowed down it's hard to find a target in the box. This is becasue the computer will jam it up with 8 guys. It becomes the house of blocked shots.

Thanks. Player stats should be OK. It's just when I'm trying to counter attack or attack swiftly, my team-mates lag so far behind nothing comes of it :(
