Despite possessing all the best strategies and tactical gameplan in the world, every winning team needs to have players who can perform the job well. Although the best tactics is able to create a winning team out of average players, he still has to inspire his players to give their all. And we will find out exactly how to ensure our first 11 are performing at their peak..
Condition Arrow
To enjoy your game and obtain the best results, field players who have the Red Condition Arrow. They are in top form, and you will find that they play much better. Their movements are faster, their shots are much more powerful and accurate! Avoid playing players that have the Purple Arrow. I have found that Reserve Players In Top Form are able to play much better than a Star Player in poor form. Thus, I will recommend you to choose condition arrow as a first priority for key matches.
How To Maintain Top Condition Arrows
In the past, whenever you noticed certain players who are in poor form, you can just send them for training and there is a chance for their condition arrow to improve. Now, this is not possible. It will require much more effort on our part, and here are the simple 3 steps to do so.
- Spend more on your athletic trainer. A better trainer is the best way to ensure your players are always in decent condition, reducing the amount of blue or purple arrows.
- Play well in matches to maintain top form. Form depends on your player’s performance. If your player achieve a high match rating of above 7, he will have a good condition arrow for the next game.
- Spend more training points on players’ Athletic Ability. This builds up the individual’s condition level.
Positioning
When you place players in a position they are not comfortable with, their stats will drop. It is easy to notice this as their overall rating will drop. Always check for rating discrepancies when you change players around.
However, you do not have to worry about the fall in ratings too much. The fall in rating will not affect your game too much if you apply the rest of the strategies mentioned in this guide. If you prefer Ballack to play RMF in this case as you want him to attack from the right, you should just go ahead with it. Players have to fit into a team and your overall team play will be more important than just a slight fall in the player’s ratings.
Captain Bravo
Choose a good captain. A good performance by the captain will have a positive influence on the whole team. Sometimes we are too focused on rotating players that we did not notice the captaincy is held by one of our reserves. Thus after doing squad rotations, ensure that the captaincy do not fall into the wrong hands, or you might be wondering what went wrong during the game.
Conclusion
Keep these simple tips in mind to help you get the best performance from your team.
