so hang on, you're saying that If you have an FL running into the, say FC position, he will drop all the way back and help defense as well?
Must experiment on this now...

Would it be useful to be able to give a player more than 1 arrow??
e.g. your strikers could have sarrows to get them to run wide when the team has possesion (to make space or drag defenders out of position) AND barrows so they dropped deeper and helped out the midfield when possesion was lost.
Am I taking this arrows idea too far, or does it have some merit???

FWRs seem to work as a positional tool in this version. Barrow and Often FWRs: there you'll have your two arrows.

and what is the difference of a DMC farrowed and a MC barrowed?
| My interpretation is this: Barrow The MC will fall back to the end of the arrow (DMC position) when his side has lost possesion but will remain central in his starting position when his team has possesion. Farrow The DMC will move from his starting position to the end of the arrow (MC Position) when his team is in possession.
For me it gets mroe complicated when you give a MC a sarrow as I do not understand properly if he goes there regardless of his side being in posession or not. </BLOCKQUOTE>
Isn't that the exact same thing? Without possession the MC with barrow stays at DMC, the DMC with farrow stays at DMC. With possession, both goes to MC.

I think it's going to be far, far easier if when people are describing their tactic and where they've got their players running if they just say an arrow from FC to AML or MR to MCR to be honest.
