thanks astro!
and vis uve really become a motherfucking brick wall at the back. . .though if u would just pass the ball a little harder and a little earlier every time you'd be my favourite player
thanx, yeah im def getting more comfortable back there, I still make questionable decisions sometimes, panic clearing it when I shouldn't and vice versa, but at least I recognize my mistakes and hopefully can start making better decisions.
ill work on being more decisive and accurate with my passing, I realized a few of my longer passes came up a little short and stopped your momentum last night so I'll power them up a little more, although I'm always worried I'll bash it out of bounds or waaay too far when I power past 75% of the bar.
Regarding being quicker, one thing you have to keep in mind is I play on co-op cam and even though it's zoomed out I can't really see anyone down the field when I initially win the ball back so I usually try to play it forwards and short to the ANY rather than kicking quick long balls down the field. It doesn't help that our formations rarely have midfield players that play in the midfield, when I get the ball you guys are usually busy streaking down towards the goal getting ready for long balls and sometimes that doesn't leave me very many good medium range pass options.
oh yeah and defensively when I'm there, I'm kinda liking playing with 4 in the back rather than 5, gives the CPU better spacing, prevents the fullbacks/wingbacks from wandering up the field as much and helps me stick to a specific area. With 5 in the back, the other 2 A.I. CB's always try to switch positions with me and we all end up out of position and not ready to deal with the rush as well as being too condensed leaving gaping holes.
