A standard defensive [[formation]] consists of 1 up to 3 '''central defenders''' and a left and a right [[Wingback|wingback]]. Central defenders are the heart of your defense and obviously their defending [[skills|skill]] is their most prominent attribute.

You cannot field more then 3 central defenders, or you will lose [[training]] that week. This means there's a maximum of 10 [[trainee]]s for defending trainers.

The abbreviation [[abbreviations|CD]] is commonly used for central defender.

'''Individual Orders'''
* Normal -- The [[defending]] skill contributes to the defence ratings—mainly the central defence, but also a lesser contribution to wing defence. A lone central defender will contribute equally to both wing defence zones, while one of a pair will contribute only to the side on which he is playing. In addition, the [[playmaking]] skill contributes a small amount to the midfield rating.
* [[Offensive central defender|Offensive]] -- The defender uses less [[defending]] and more [[playmaking]]. His defending still contributes to all three defence ratings. His playmaking contributes to the midfield ratings (though less than an extra [[inner midfielder]] or even a [[winger towards middle]]
* [[Central Defender toward wing|Towards wing]] -- More of his defending contributes to the wing defence (and less to the central defence). Also, he will contribute some [[wing]] skill to the wing attack on his side.
