The Anchor Man is the guy that bridges the gap between defence and midfield. Providing much needed defensive cover the player in this position can break up counter attacks by cutting out passes intended for strikers or players in dangerous positions. This shortlist has been created by FM Wonderkids who has kindly given us permission to share here on FM Base. You can donate to FM Wonderkids at his PayPal.

Football Manager's Definition of the Anchor Man

Sometimes referred to as the "water carrier", the Anchor Man's main duty is to sit in the hole between the defence and the midfield, intercept moves, winning the ball and laying off simple passes to his more creative teammates

Since his key job is to anchor the defence he doesn't venture too far from his position either to close down the opposition or to support the more advanced players.Click to expand...
