No doubt that everyone will agree this was a brilliant performance. My question is, i know this has probably been asked lots of times, but how do you get your fullbacks to surge down the wings and overlap like Neville and Evra in that video? I have tried changing their mentality to attacking and creative freedom to much, but they stop at the half way line. I have thought about ticking "hold up ball" for the wingers Giggs and Ronaldo, but what do you want wingers to do? Run down the wings and wait for the fullback to overlap, but with hold up ball ticked will they run?
My question is how to make them overlap, hopefully i will receive a definate answer from a game developer or moderator, but suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
I once tried to see if this could exploit a bug. Set your wingers on full defensive and forward runs, run with ball, etc. on never while your FB on the exact opposite. Then put on swap positions with all 4 and you should always get your wingers dropping back and letting your FBs go up.
Although it never provided any extra help in attack and led to more defensive mistakes, so it was no help.
yep this is exactly what i've been trying to do, both my AM L/R are great at crossing but so are my FB. if anyone knows how to achieve overlapping then please let us know!
your wingers mentality should be set to offensive and de fb´s to normal then make sure that they have offensive runs set to often. sorry for my spelling. (swede)
It helps if you have a high d-line, which you should only really have at home, however.
At least mixed FWRs for the full backs as well as having a quite high mentality (again, these should only really be applied at home) should help get them forward.
Setting them to cross deep to the target man should provide plenty of decent crosses anyway.

But with fullbacks crossing deep, they won't overlap the wingers.
I have been thinking as well and i tried removing forward arrows from the wingers (they were both on forward arrows to the AM position), and setting forward runs to mixed, and for fullbacks setting forward runs to often, and managed to get some overlapping.
First season as Tottenham I had Marcelo and Vanden Borre as my fullbacks. I put them on the pre-set fullback instructions and they hammered in some 20 assists each, many coming from by-line crosses. They were down the wing more often than my so-called wingers!
