I usually play with barrows on my fullbacks which seems to stop them getting the ball behind the defence, also i haver my defensive line on 2. This way i only conceded 13 goals in the Serie A with AC Milan
Do you keep the defensive line set at 2 for every game?
Do you change the instuctions of the defense for every game or do you eave them the same and just tweek the rest of the team? </BLOCKQUOTE>

Always have my mentality set at 2 for centre backs and have them rarely closing down. The defensive line depends on the pace of their attack, if it is slow i will push up and play for the offside.

The fullbacks instructions are set to team and have them set to mixed for forward runs so that they are mainly concentrating on defence with the odd run forward </BLOCKQUOTE>

Will give your sugestions a go and let you know how i get on.

I am applying your tweaks to my D-line and I've witnessed significant reduction in goals conceded (so far). Excuse my insufficient explanation of what I'm doing.

Right now, 19 matches won 16 draw 2 lost 1, scored 37 conceded 5. I must say I like what I see, since I'm on the holiday mode and getting results like this.

So far so good withs smithybulls tips.

Since i have implemented his instruction i have played 3 won 3 scored 9 conceded 0. Although the game were against Watford, Celtic and Sheff Utd they were still quite impresive wins. I have also been trying to set up the team to counter what my scout tells me, which has been working well. Just have to wait untill i face a team simerler to my teams ability.

Still, to not concede in three matches is pretty good. Happy to have helped
