The easiest and most digestible facet of the tactics screen (or Game Plan as referred to in game) is the Lineup subheading. This gives you a basic team selection option, showing the players positions, names, height, stronger foot, overall rating, current stamina and their form rating. The overall rating is a good indicator of a players skill, however to get a full view of their attributes, clicking the bumpers shows a more detailed interpretation of each player, with their abilities and individual player cards also. The form arrow is important also, ranging from red to purple, they give an indication of a players stat boosts in each new game. For instance a bright red arrow will normally give the player roughly a 12% increase to their default attributes, making them either a great impact substitute or the first name on the team sheet, whereas a purple arrow will decrease the abilities of said player.
