Something strange just come to my concern after this new patch. It seems strange that my team (Leverkusen) can score very well and mostly winning, but my total possession is always below 50%. On average, i think it is 42%.

I usually play 4-4-2 diamond or 4-1-2-1-2 or switch back to 4-4-2 attacking. With all of the passing styles, they don't seem to help me getting better possession. I also tried keeper to distribute to defender [As suggested in fm07], but it doesn't help either.
Even short pass, slow tempo don't seem to work that well.

It's not a major concern as I can still win most games, but it's quite odd that I usually get higher shot, shot on goal and goals than opponents despite having way less possession.


Also, I don't prefer to change to 4-5-1 or 3-5-2. I just like to have 4 defender, 4 midfield, 2 forward to keep my rotation system running smoothly.

Any suggestions appreciated!

short passing + slow tempo + play wide + close down at the front = mucho posession

Try also to have strong strikers with good first touch holding the ball up, bringing the midfield into play.

If you play attacking then as a rule you wont see as much of the possession as the opposition.

Might sound strange but have time wasting on (but not too much though).
