Thumbs up Corners

My corner tactic:
Corner taking team instruction: (left and right) NEAR POST
Player instructions:
  • 2 good header players set to NEAR POST FLICK ON
  • 1 strength, tall striker set to CHALLENGE KEEPER
  • 1 good header player is set to STAND ON FAR POST
  • 1 player with good long shot ability set to LURK OUTSIDE AREA
  • 2 quick, small player set to STAY BACK IF NEEDED
  • the other 2 players set to ATTACK BALL FROM DEEP or GO FORWARD
  • gk of course set to default
From 10 corners I get 8 goals. Try and say what du you think about it?

the corner takers need good corner and crossing stats too.. also the 2 players that are at near post flick on and lurk outside need good positioning.. so they are in the right place

Defending against corners is harder thing. It depends more on your players quality. My general settings:
-tall defenders -> mark tall
-side defenders -> mark man
-midefilders -> go back
-def mid -> mark man
-tall striker -> go back
-2 small quick player (wingers or strikers) -> stay forward
-and you can set 2 players mark near/far post to taste
(my brother usually sets 4 players to stay forward so fewer opponent player come to attack and he has greater chance to counter attack)

well my teams keep sending the cornors to the front post and all the guy does on the front post is run foward 5 meters and head it off, doesnt work at all for me, even when i tell the cornor taker to mix it or anything other than front post but they still bloody do it.

Just need to overload the box, with near and far posts and challenging the keeper. Intimediate the defence.
