Why would you make a team player, who is less likely to shoot at goal, a long shots specialist like an AM or SS? That seems counter productive.

I think an AM is definitely the preferred position as it makes the best use of both specials.  

Team is obviously best as a midfielder.

Determined should be used for an attacking player because when you go behind you want the attackers to play better and hopefully score a goal. Boosting the defence isn't such a good idea if you are already behind. 

Putting both together then AM is the obvious choice.   

Edit - regarding Joddit's point, if the player's main objective is to provide assists rather than to score goals then preferring the pass rather than the longshot is likely to be a good thing. However, it doesn't say his shooting will be any worse, just less frequent, so I would probably still him Longshots and he should also weigh in with a few extra goals.

@Taavi: I agree that we don't know (or at least I don't know) how much less likely long shots become, but that is basically just asking HOW counterproductive it really is.

@Numpty:

I respectfully disagree with your assessment in that I would make him into a passing midfielder rather than a shooting one, since when behind he would be more likely to give a good assist on one of your forwards, who then isn't obstructed by his likelihood to actually pull the trigger.

Maybe I'm daft, but that seems to be a far better fit to me.

I'm more inclined to think we agree @Joddit. :) (Perhaps I wasn't clear enough.)

A passing midfielder whose main purpose is to give assists rather than one who tries to score. He could play either as RM/LM or RAM/LAM/AM depending on the match and the situation. 

Whether or not to give him Longshots is not so important, but I don't think  it can do him any harm.

Oh, I will be signing up for a reading course shortly. :) 

I've got quite a severe headache today, so that may affect my ability or willingness to take the time and effort to read comments properly. I apologise.

With regard to your last statement: the harm could of course be the wasted training time, but other than that it probably won't do extra harm, or at least not that I can tell.
