Defensive Forward
From Hattrick
Defensive forwards have a combination of scoring ang playmaking skill to help boost midfield and contribute to attack ratings as well.
The importance of defensive forwards was increased 2.1.2006, when their contribution from passing skill increased by 30%. In addition to the increase mentioned above, forwards with defensive order that have the technical specialty will gain an additional 50% boost to the contribution of their passing skill to central attacks, and they will gain a minor contribution to wing attacks from passing skill. The thinking behind this is to help simulate the real-world option of the withdrawn forward (a central player between midfielders and forwards, also known as: Litmanen, Trequartista) who uses his sensitive foot to deliver great passes (from editorial).
