Destruction

I have been attempting to try and get my team to play the ball on the floor a lot more this season as i don't have an out and out target man, plus my wingers don't have great crossing ability. But i find that even with short passing balls are still getting banged up to a striker by wide players like full backs and my centre backs. whats the best way to keep the ball on the ground but catch your opponents out of position?

Not necessarily.

There is a point at which CF gets too low, and therefore reduces their "short" passing radius to the point that there will be no players within that range so they will just hoof it clear as youhave them on a defensive mentality and therefore they don't take risks..
