Chat Shadow Striker

[danK7RNY]

I've tried many different players over the last few games, never really been happy with results/stats/figures etc so with that being in mind ....

Who are the best shadow strikers to use and what's the best attributes to look for in one? 

TIA

Not great with tactics but one thing worked well for me was putting 2 DLF with SS behind them.

DLF like to drop deep making space for SS to exploit. Makes sense doesn't it?

And best attributes for an ideal SS should be Shooting,Passing,Movement, Dribbling and pace.(Good technique is a plus) In my sight.

Agree with @MegaBoi about using an SS with 2x DLFs in front.

I tested this with @sscout's crazy 235 tactic in FMM23, and the front 3's interplay was really lovely to watch.

I used Depay as the SS, and he got 1.4 goal contributions (goals + assists) per game across the season.

Appreciate the advice ... probably not even the best player for a SS but still putting in some good numbers.

Man these are not only good numbers these are Great numbers.

Don't forget you are playing in Spanish la-liga.

You have to share your insights here. I used Messi's regen and still doesn't got these numbers.

Going to move my guy on now ... did well for me, always enjoy trying new players but have just bought the regen of James Rodrigues, clean stats and all, feel like he could be mega in that SS role with my tactics.

5 seasons in with my main man ... James  Rodriguez regen

For shadow strikers, look for players with high finishing, off the ball, dribbling, first touch, and pace. Good vision and passing also help. Some top shadow strikers in FM24 include Gabriel Martinelli, Mason Greenwood, and Phil Foden. Focus on agility and composure to make them deadly in tight spaces.

Amazing results.

I think you should squeeze more games out of him so that he can give you Magical numbers of 50+ goals and 25+ assists.

And can you share your Strikers image? I am Curious how hee looks.

Everything seems as I suppose.

But how the F**k your striker is giving 20+ assists?

My World class Playmaker never gives 20+ assists in consecutive seasons.

Running them both as DLF
