Hi Everyone, I was just thinking I would get your thoughts on the positioning of my targetman.
I am not great when it comes to tactics so I hope I am not asking a silly question!
I have always had my left hand striker (in a 4-4-2) as my target man and set him to few forward runs.
When I start my FM08 game proper I have decided to use Timmy Cahill as my targetman from the start (pending injury!) and I would just retain his as a striker, which worked well in FM07.
However it occured to me that it might work with him "in the hole". In my simple brain I thought this would give him 2 strikers to flick onto rather than just the one in my normal formation.
What do you think? Should a targetmen be right up the pitch or could you have one in an advanced midfield role?
I will be trying this in the demo myself, but I would also like the Experts oppinion on this!
