I have started using my most technically gifted player as my target man near the end of games that I am winning. I set him to run with ball and obviously at this stage of the game he will be time wasting.

I have found that this player will shield the ball and almost show boat. The best thing I have found is that he will win a lot of freekicks hence waste a lot of time. If the opposition has a defender on a card or is known to be rash I will put the player up against them and the defender often is sent off.

Does anyone else use this tactic?
If so what experiences have you had?

never tried this before but sounds like a decent idea :thup:

I often do this last 10 min of the match; timewasting on often then - Set my SC to hold up ball, no forward run, no run with ball, no long shots and make him " targetman" and pass to feet .
Only when im infront with a few goals tho
