F o r m a t i o n z ----------------------------------------------- ------------------------ 4 - 5 - 1 --------- + : Great defence role, great mid-field. - : Really bad when it's your turn to attack. you must have a really good & high skilled player to combine with this formation. Tips : Maximize your midfielder, either DH OH LH or RH. Be patient & find the right time to counter attack. 4 - 4 - 2 --------- + : The most balanced formation. Commonly used. - : The Sideback (SB) is not that good for defending, can't support the Centerback (CB). Tips : Edit all your defender to behind, include SB. Put all of 'em into your penalty area (on the screen) or you can use 1-3 defender formation. (edit 2 CBs into a stright horizontal line set the most behind as a sweeper) but beware of attack from opponent's winger. 4 - 3 - 3 --------- + : Balanced defense & offence role. Great for attacking role. - : Since it's harder to score by heading (not like WE 4) it's rather difficult to cross the ball. Weakness point is on the midfield area which only has 3 midfielder. Tips : same as 4-4-2 formation, use 1-3 defender formation. make the good use of your 2 winger. try to have a good crossing. 3 - 6 - 1 --------- + : Great midfield area. Promising ! depends on how good you've edited your player. - : Weak against counterattack, the 3 defender can't support a good defense. must be patient sometimes. Tips : make a good use of your OH. Edit their position 'till u've found it better. 3 - 5 - 2 --------- + : Great midfield area, easy to attack cause it's like your player are everywhere. - : Weak against counter attack especially wing area. Tips : Edit your player position. Use a good 1-2 attack. Be creative. 3 - 4 - 3 --------- + : Great attacking role, the balanced midfielder can sometimes help to defend. - : Weak against counter attack & wing attack. Tips : Make a good use of your winger. Set the defender to behind (either in awareness or position edit) 5 - 4 - 1 --------- + : Best defense role, balanced midfield area. - : Lack of offence role. It's really hard to attack unless you must be patient (very patient!) Tips : This formation isn't recommended to use. only use when you already win & want to keep the score difference. 5 - 3 - 2 --------- + : Best defense role. more balanced than 5-4-1 formation. - : Difficult to attack, must be patient. Too depends on counter attack. Tips : PATIENT ! i saw some expert int this game use this formation. the counter attack & 1-2 play is KILLING ! so, make a good use of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 7.

T i p s a n d T r i c k z ----------------------------------------------------------------------- - 1-2 . . 1-2 and 1-2 ! the MOST great way to score in this game ! make it short ! not a long 1-2 pass. - EDIT your player POSITION ! it's a must ! sometimes edited formation has a better effect to the teamplay. - Put your attention on STRATEGY. Practice to make a good use of it. try to find the rite settings depends on your attacking type. - Make a benefit from deadball situation (free kick or corner kick) - For Free Kick, above the 30 m, try to shoot directly 'bout 75 or 80 % of your power bar or sometimes while holding up on your D-pad. make sure to aim the direction. below the 30 m, try to shoot directly about 60 or 75 % of your power bar. when it comes near the penalty kick area, hold down on D-pad, shoot about 40 or 50 % of your power bar. practice makes it well. and please select the best free kick taker in your team. (AIM the DIRECTION !) - For Long Freekick select player who has : Shoot Power : min 18 Shoot Accuracy : min 17 Curve : min 17 (not really important though) Recommended : R.Carlos (Brazil), Batistuta (Argentina), Davids (Netherlands), Beckham (England) For Short Freekick, Shoot Power : min 16 Shoot Accuracy : min 17 Curve : min 16 Recommended : Del Piero (Italy), Zidane (France), Rui Costa (Portugal), Beckham (England), Rivaldo (Brazil) - For Corner kick, select the kicktaker with Passing : min 17. you can choose to cross it directly or pass to the nearest player 1st then have a crossing pass. the ideal powerbar should be at 55 - 75 %. Tips : try to find out about corner with curving pass ! it rocks ! it's like passing with banana kick. the power should be at 50 - 60 % of your powerbar. - To AVOID being scored by 1-2 there are some tips, Don't MARK a player who try to have a 1-2 pass, instead of it use Square button to have nearest player controlled by computer to chase than wait the 1-2 ball at behind. - Play with MANUAL cursor change to block the 1-2 pass. (it's really difficult though) don't use AUTO. some great WE2000-U23 player i knew use MANUAL cursor change. Practice makes Best ! more to come . . . ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 9.

A b o u t M e ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Maybe it's too late for writing this Faqs, because by now Winning Eleven 5 has already out. I've already bought the game and I'll try to write the Faqs soon eventhough there's already one @ gamefaqs.com. Well, my favourite team in WE2000-U23 is obviously Brazil, sometimes i like to play with Ukraine or France too. When i play using Brazil, i use 3-5-2 B formation with starting line up : Goalkeeper : Dida Center Back : Aldair, Zago, Cacapa/Evanilson Def Half : Emerson, Conceicao/Cafu Wing : Denilson, Cafu/Elber Off Half : Rivaldo Center Fwd : R.Carlos & Ronaldo I edit all the centerback to move back near the goalkeeper, than move the DH to the back too, set Aldair as sweeper & give him a covering role, after that i set the awareness for CB & DH to behind and the other to forward. Set the FK long to R.Carlos, short to Rivaldo Ck left to R.Carlos, right to Cafu PK to Ronaldo Strategy : CB Overlap, Counter Attack, Center Attack, Zone Press. So, that's it ! the mid-field is very . . very strong, but defending maybe is the biggest problem (especially when against opponent who has great wing attack). the 2 striker are very fast & have strong shoot, so i often use 1-2 pass to score, especially using R.Carlos. You can attack from second line too, using either Rivaldo, Denilson or Cafu. How about yours ? tell me ! (ahunkz@yahoo.com) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 12.
