CBP87 said: Could it be being impacted by the cross from byline instruction? IMO the defensive line being higher leaves space in behind and if you're full backs are further up the field then you're more susceptible to a fast counter, especially with a ball over the top or to the flanks but with that much lower defenisve line at least that space isn't really there Expand
My observation inside the game is that low crosses work fundamentally different than whipping crosses and floating crosses, and I am not talking about height or strength here. When players do low crosses, they don't simply run to the byline and cross to the penalty area, but instead they run to the end of the field, then turn their body around, move a bit diagonally inside the box, then do the low cross. My guess is that since there is a break of pace when doing low crosses, then the advantage of "step up more" is lost, and you are left with only the disadvantage of leaving yourself exposed.
Such a gap caused by the synergy between two instructions (low crosses + balanced defensive line behavior). The worst part is that I cannot grasp the relationship between the two.

Fake. It is easy to test it, just get any good set pieces, and one intentionally bad (like sending everyone to attack in defending corners), and you will see that it makes a difference. Most decent set pieces are also noticeably better than default, scoring more points by the end of the season, and that is also easy to test.
Just doing a path relinking between Autumn and Barbie. At this point, I start to think some instructions have just the same performance, and difference in results are just caused by statistical noise.

There is some "set piece familiarity" thing that only increases with set pieces training. I don't know how much influence it has, though.
juliius said: So i ran 3 season with each of the training schedules below. The one with set pieces had 16, 11 and 9 corner goals in the prem for the season, the one without had 11, 11, 13. Obviously not a big enough sample size to say anything specifically, however nothing that eye catching either.

Thank you for testing. I suppose I might be biased for getting that 16 in my runs.
juliius said: Think i will run a couple holiday seasons, know it's not conclusive, but want to see if any massive differences comes from it. Is one of the things i hope makes an impact, because it would just make sense. Expand
I made some slight change to cover some physical attributes. What I am doing right now is: - Week 1: 1x Set Piece Delivery (because I believe it improves the performance from set pieces) - Week 2: 1x Resistance (to grow Jumping Reach, Agility, Stamina and Natural Fitness) - Week 3 and 4: 6x Attack (to grow CA) - Repeat from Week 1.
That means Week 1 and 2 are to focus growth on Pace and Acceleration, and Week 3 and 4 are to grow CA.

There are people more qualified than me to talk about training in this forum, but personally I am training players in the same role and position they play (IP and OOP), because I don't think it has any effect in the growth of my training schedules.
I didn't do much testing on that, but it really seems to have a correlation between training set pieces and scoring from set pieces. In my most recent games, I was not scoring from set pieces at all in the first season, then I added 1x Set Pieces every month (training #78), and suddenly my players started scoring like crazy (using my set piece routine). Therefore, I will have to include it in my rotation, maybe in place of #79, or as an extra session.
Inspired by https://fm-arena.com/thread/17034-ice-cold-v1/, this tactic aims to counter Autumn, Argus, and other tactics with similar formation. I have not yet investigated how they clash against each other, but my theory is that this tactic can exploit the single BCB from Autumn in counter attacks, while providing a more solid backline to defend against the opponent's counter attacks.

Around 15-20.
P.S.: I usually play with underdogs. Can probably score much more with top teams.

Reflexes or Agility, whichever is lower.
