    Just so you're aware in case you want to change, Yaya is 3rd best at PKs. He's 81, Tevez 83, Kaka 84.

    Also looking at your picture there I'm understanding that to mean you want to instruct de Jong to stay back in attack and Farfan to stay forward when on D? If not check the OP for specific instructions

    Cool, I know when drafting we didn't want to go by FIFA ratings but figured for things like that I should point it out

    Just do you're aware Vidal has 86 PK compared to 82 for Benzema

    Also because you said you'd have your CAMs switching out I set them all to free roam instructions and left everything else default. Let me know any changes

    If it's not too late, my individual player tactics:

    Gaitan - Stay wide
    Cuadrado - Cut inside
    Gundogan - Come back on D
    Hernanes - Roam
    Toulalan - Cut passing lanes

    If it makes any difference to you Ribery has 80 PKs and Rooney has 81.
    Also Rooney has same FK Accuracy as Hulk and is right footed if you want him taking Left FKs

    Note I found interesting, it auto updates Captain as you change guys in the lineup and it defaulted yours to Bradley

    Also I read your lineup as 4-3-3 with 3 CMs is that right?

    In case you wanted to change anything....
    Costa PK is 76, Hernanes is 82.
    For long FKs Toulalans FK Accuracy is 56, Marcelo is 67 and Silva is 73 if you wanted one of them taking them

    Put Vidal as taking my PK's then. Also have him going forward on attacks and have Witsel stay back.

    That's interesting about the PKs, very different than what I'd read online.

    For the captains, I just figured that with his age and talent level compared to my other starters, it didn't make sense for Bradley to be captain. Maybe in a year or so after he's proven himself. I also think it'd look a bit too much like favoritism for an American manager to make the sole American starter the captain.

    The formation is an attacking 4-3-3 with two CMs and a CAM. It should be available. I'll get the rest of my tactics updated tonight.

    For Gundogan is that supposed to be stay back when attacking? The come back on D or stay forward is only for wingers

    Also based on how you had them lined up on your pic I adjusted the positions in the formation for the DMs. Moved Witsel back a little and Vidal up a little. I'llset it back to default if you want, tried to make it match your post.

    Updated. Only thing is for CF there's no free roam option but with support runs set to balance width (so he can stay central or float wide) and attacking runs set to balanced (so he can be a target man or get in behind) that should get the same result

    If anyone decides they want to go really in depth I can do a custom tactic for you. Just make sure you tell me settings for all.

    Settings options.

    1) Build Up Play
    -Speed (1-100. 1-33 Slow, 34-66 Balanced, 67-100 Fast)
    -Passing (1-100. 1-33 Short, 34-66 Mixed, 67-100 Long)
    -Positioning (Free Form or Organized) This is for 1st 2 3rds of pitch.

    2) Chance Creation
    -Passing (1-100. 1-33 Safe, 34-66 Normal, 67-100 Risky)
    -Crossing (1-100. 1-33 Little, 34-66 Normal, 67-100 Lots)
    -Shooting (1-100. 1-33 Little, 34-66 Normal, 67-100 Lots)
    -Positioning in Final 1/3 (Free Form or Organized)

    3) Defence
    -Pressure (1-100. 1-33 Deep, 34-66 Medium, 67-100 High) Affects how high up you start pressuring
    -Aggression (1-100. 1-33 Contain, 34-66 Press, 67-100 Double)
    -Team Width (1-100. 1-33 Narrow, 34-66 Normal, 67-100 Wide)
    -Defender Line (Cover or Offside Trap) Affects shape and strategy of back line

    I'll get to those as soon as you have your next home match. I figured you didn't want Gabriel in net and had Fahrmann

    Edit: you aren't home this week

    Got it. By balanced I guess this means leave everything default. If that's wrong let me know and I'll get it for next time.

    I'll also set tactics to default for Spurs.

    There's no balanced so I use default

    Everything else updated, if something wasnt listed I set it to default except for CMs there's no get back on D so I didn't do anything with that for Pogba/Bradley
