Hello people, how are you? I hope this week was great for you. For me this week was great. Many great Champions League and Europa League matches and good company. I played some online truck games and this cool week was brilliant. What else should I ask?
It is said that offense sells tickets, defense wins championships. In other words, a successful team is based on good defensive work. Think that you can get a point, when you don't concede a goal. Defense is not some players' duty. Everyone should help. Nevertheless,the most crucial part in a defensive plan is the center backs. But what makes a center back great?
It is obvious that high marking and tackling abilities are a must. These abilities will make your player win most 1 vs 1 situations, pressuring the opponent tight and denying space efficiently. Of course physical attributes, like acceleration and strength, can be the difference between a top class player and a national reputation player.
All these are useless though, if you can understand and predict each situation. Judgement is crucial. As a result, intelligence, decisions, anticipation and of course concentration are even more important than everything mentioned above. Last, but not least is the teamwork of your center backs.
A defender with these characteristics will demonstrate his great abilities constantly, covering holes and correcting teammates' mistakes. I am looking forward to reading your comments and success stories. Have fun playing FM 2012.
See you soon,
