kvasir said: For most attributes, you can figure out if they’re defensive or offensive based on goals for/goals against, but jumping reach isn’t as clear. Do the +14 goals come mainly from set pieces or open play? It’s probably set pieces, right? This just reinforces how jumping reach doesn’t matter much for strikers, like the ykykyk findings from a few years ago, especially since most top tactics rely on low crosses. Having 2-3 defensive players with good jumping reach should be plenty to score from set pieces and defend them effectively.

If my thinking is off here, let me know.


Are u playing the game? JR strikers are by far the ones that most score.

In real life "Inside Forwards" are flanking players that prefer to cut inside with the ball from the flanks to the central area instead of running with the ball down the flanks as "Wingers" prefer to do.

So in real life when an Inside Forward cuts inside with the ball from the flank to the central area he controls the ball with the foot opposite to the side he's playing.

Speaking other words, in real life when an Inside Forward that plays on the left flank cuts inside with the ball to the central area he controls the ball with his right foot so he must be comfortable using his right foot.

But how does it work in FM24? Whether the preferred foot rating has an impact on the performance of Inside Forwards in FM24?

We've tested that for FM24!



Inside Forward Preferred Foot



QUESTION: Does the Preferred Foot matter for Inside Forwards in FM24?
ANSWER: No, it seems doesn't matter.


QUESTION: Does improving the weak foot's rating improve the result?
ANSWER: Yes, it does but for a very tiny amount, so taking into consideration that the weak foot rating costs a lot of CA points for a player, it's totally not worth taking.


CA matters? I thought it was only the main attributes
