I can help you out with Fred & Briand for sure (although I'm sure it'll be the same for Benzema). I've played plenty using those two but not too much with Benzema. But for them I use these settings:
FR: Often
RWB: Often
LS: Mixed/Often (Often if its 17 or more)
CB: Rarely
TB: Rarely
But I wouldnt just put the blame on them 3 because you're not scoring. Its pretty weird that all 3 stopped at the same time. I'd have a look at your midfield first. It may be that they've stopped getting the same kind of supply they were when they were scoring lots. Have you changed anybody in your midfield this season? Wingers, CM's, DM's or even your FB's in defence? Or maybe you've changed the way you go about attacking?

didn't change anything with my midfield not even a player
is it wise to put one of them as a targetman or not and if so who??
I definitely wont put Benzema & Briand as TM's. Fred, I suppose, can play as a TM because he's good at heading. But his jumping isnt that great so that's why I'm a little apprehensive. But yeah, you could give it a try for a couple of games I suppose and put Fred as the TM.

You could have Fred as a TM but with ball to feet? I usualy find with Benzema that I knock his creativity down abit and he seems to be much more profilic. I supose its possible that the service to your strikers has been reduced for some reason, best way to check is by checking the match stats of individuals. My settings for Fred are:
FR: Often/Mixed
RWB: Often
LS: Mixed
CB: Rarely
TB: Mixed

Yeah, I usualy switch between often and mix with benzema but with Fred I often set his FR to mixed unless im at home or playing weaker opposition :thup:
If you don't mind can I see screenshots of all three? I wanna see who's the fastest, who's the most creative/better passer, and who has the best touch.
I normally like to use one upfront, but with Arsenal now I use 2 FC's for first time since FM06. Here is what I like to do when I use 2 upfront:
Faster Forward(right side):
FWR= often
RWB= often/mixed
LS= rarely
TTB= rarely
CB= mixed (i like to think this makes him drift more)
His mentality is the highest! This set-up works even better if the player has PPM of "moves into chanels" or "likes to brake offside trap". Creative freedom is on the higher side of normal.
Creative forward (left side):
FWR= rarely
RWB= mixed
LS= mixed (if long shots is 15+ and decision is 13+)
TTB= often
CB= rarely
Mentality is dead center on normal always. This makes him drop and link up with my CM's.
From what I've seen on my saves, Fred, Benzema and Briand are all pretty similar FC's. But I think Jimmy is the better all around FC who can play both roles. Karim is the most gifted one though so it depends how he has improved.
That's why I need to see screenshots of all three.
(seriously messed things up in my games tactics deleted them all and well need a new one and i can't let it work for some reason)
so i fixed my strikers thx
now i need help with my midfielders (please)
amc : vdv and anderson (manu)
aml : ben arfa and menez (sub iago)
amr : keita and gouffran (sub walcott)
mc : makoun and veloso (defensive)
mc : toulalon and bodmer (sub banega) more attacking
What sort of personal settings and well also things like mentality ... how do i need to set them?
i know i ask a lot but i would be much appreciated, i did use my tactics for like 10 years (real life) and they just don't work on this years game and i'm desperate because i think i have a great team
Need help with Fred, Benzema and Briand
