  • Hi everyone,


    I would like to ask for your constructive feedback on how to replicate the real-life Messi role and how to get the most out of him (possibly two separate things).


    So far I have tried several roles on him, mostly on a 4-4-2 similar to what I think Valverde plays.


    -As a False 9, paired with a CF(att). In this case, he gets a lot of assists but doesn't score much. Also, he doesn't dribble as much as I would like, although I have "dribble more" enabled, but either passes or shoots from far away (with shoot less often he doesn't shoot at all)
    -As a Trequartista in attack, paired with a CF(sup). In this case he scores like crazy, but he doesn't return to the middle so much as he does IRL.
    -As a Trequartista in AMC paired with a CF(sup) upfront. Now sometimes he gets lost in the game.

    I know it could also mean it is a matter of general team tactics, so I would also like to hear your experiences.


    PS: I know Barcelona is not a really difficult challenge. I just want the fun of replicating Messi, so please don't bomb me with such messages. Thanks.




 
Try putting Suarez in the left side of the attack, as a DLF/Support with the following instruction - Move in to channels. Then you put Messi in The right side of the attacking midfield, as a TRQ with the instruction - Shoot more often.

Works wonders for me!!

Cheers

Excellent, I will try it right away.
Especially next season with Griezmann on the left as an IF (att) I think its gonna do wonders!

How do you set up your midfield and Dembele ?
 
I play an assymetric 4-4-2. Messi pulled back as explained and Busquets as a left DM (DLP). Dembele plays on the right midfield as a winger and Iniesta on the left as a WP. Rakitic is a right central midfielder (RPM).
