knew the second goal was BS as soon as Memphis bumped that defender the second time freely
Memphis does that a lot
He's a tank
Anyone else in here use MOTM Son? Idk what's up with him but he shrugs off a lot of defenders with ease for me. To the point where it's just straight up ridiculous considering his physical stats.
I got the 86 MOTM for my premier league squad a while back and gave him Hawk, which puts his strength at 70 but he plays like 80+
It always frustrates my friend when I'm playing against him and Son is shrugging off multiple defenders on a run
Main squad: French hybrid
Alternative squad: full premier league
What team set up and instructions do u guys select to make ur team press? Unless I'm controlling them or using secondary help button, they just stand around.
If you happen to use either of these formations I can give you my instructions and custom tactics. I use the same custom tactic setup for both. I'm certainly no expert though.
There's a few things that affect your players pressing. Workrates are pretty important and are most noticeable on strikers imo. Lacazette and Son both have High/High and they noticeably tend to go out of position to help with the defense on the midfield regardless of their instructions.
When you have the ball, you can manually tell players to make a run by pressing LB on xbox while looking in their general direction. This helps out a lot.
Third, having players with high strength/defense and aggression on the midfield really makes a big difference imo. My French hybrid squad has a lot of physical and defense in the midfield and they put in a lot more work to push players off the ball or intercept passes than my premier league squad.
