It's supposed to have been fixed, but it doesn't work properly at all.
Watch for the opposition changing formation and change your marking in your own tactics to suit. It usually involves selecting 'mark specific' instead of letting the AI choose who to mark.
I lose countless goals due to the AI changing formation (before I can react) and finding that both my DCs are now man marking opposition DCs.
I thought it was just my computer, but how annoying is it really? I get yhe exact problem, I usually do zonal and tight marking aswell.
If you go on opposition instructions and man mark that loan striker, do you have to stick someone on him or is it contridicting (however you spell that) yourself.
I just don't trust generic man marking to do the job right. I would always set one DC to mark the specific striker, and have the other on zonal. I'm always sitting on the formations screen out with the highlights, just to watch for any changes, or players swapping position, because you need to then counter this manually too. You really shouldn't have to do this, it's terrible.
If you set one of your Central Deffenders to specifically to man mark one of the opposition Strikers, then you encounter the "out of position" problem when the strikers switch positions. I was thinking that one could then have one's CDs swap position so when the opposition strikers switch position you could keep your CD marking the right Striker. Dosen't work like that though, which is a shame...
