stgahoy is on a distinguished road
Default Bojan as lone striker.

Hello, I'm playing as Juventus currently in fourth season, with the "The Winning V 2.00" tactic Which is a really great tactic, when I was playing Trezeguet up front he was great as lone but he a born TS. Pity Trezeguet isn't getting younger his pace is really weak now. So I need to change him, signed Bojan on a free as a replacement - I think he has a really huge PA because my scout (everything on 20) rated him for 6 stars for Serie A which is really really great. I started him against the weaker teams but he isn't able to score, he seems to lose the fight with strong defenders. So can I play Bojan as a lone striker? What instruction should I give to him ?

Here is a screen, with the tactic, first team and instructions. Thank you for help, cheers!

Well, for one it depends on how he's developed. It might just be that he's not developed that well just yet.

Second, it could be that he needs time to adjust to the tactics. This is very much noticable in the game too. If you change tactics, you team needs to adapt to it. And also individual players. Give him as many pre-season games as you can.

I've never used the tactic so dont know how it exactly works (although I can make a pretty good guess seeing the formation). Looking at Bojan's instructions I dont think they are suited for him tbh. He's a great dribbler so he should definitely be running with the ball a lot. He'll skin defenders easily and score plenty for you. I'd set him on RWB often, FR often, LS mixed and the other 2 on rarely or mixed. But that might disrupt the tactics. Also, having him hold up the ball might not be such a good thing unless he has strength of 17 or above imo. And also, in that tactic, you might have "use TM" ticked and Bojan is not the greatest TM tbh. Especially if the instruction is set to feed the ball to him on his head. If thats the case, dont change anything except for giving the ball to him at his feet and see if it works. Else try to modify according to the above. For that tactic you'd have been better off with Pato or Vela imo. They're both strong and good in the air. Atleast better than Bojan. But with a little tweaking I dont see why Bojan couldnt be just as effective in that tactic.

I play one up fornt and I had Owen, he WAS banging them in but now has slumped with the whole team So i am looking for another tactic this looks great.

In my tactic however I have the strikers instructions very different from you. Im not saying it will be any better but seen as though Bojan is a similar player to Owen rather than Trezeguet it could be worth a go!

Mentality I have a Out and Out attack
Passing style, closing down and creative freedom all at mixed.

I have forward runs and run with ball on always. This means he is going for it, however don't be surprised if you get a few offsides. Then I have Long shots, Through Balls and cross ball all on rarely. I have marking and hold up ball off. But I have him as a target man to receive ball to run onto.

Hope this helps mate if you choose to use.

I sent him out on loan with Sunderland to get him used to the Premier League. he scored 26 league goals, which won the golden boot. This seasonhe is much better than the first season he was signed (also on free) with 13 goals, and every one of them were when he started the games. Not a good sub IMO
